If you're wondering how to be an entrepreneur, chances are you're considering creating your company or business. Surely it is your first time and the mere fact of thinking that you have to give up your work fills you with panic.
You must keep in mind that learning how to be an entrepreneur is not something that a book, a teacher or a course teaches you. This depends on certain habits that you must cultivate each day.
1. Performance: Not only do you have to work and already, but to work and very hard to get all the challenges that you proposed before starting your project. If you have managed to get good results and your company goes ahead never lower your arms. It is the first commandment of every good entrepreneur.
2. Creativity: At work we not only have to do daily things in the form of routine and monotony, but to be creative, to innovate and to create new things; and if they are not new, a different way of seeing them and a different way of thinking and executing them.
3. Innovate every day: We cannot remain anchored in the initial idea, but innovate in every moment. Innovate in the different aspects: processes, ideas for the business, improvements, etc.
4. Think about improving each product/service and make it happen. We cannot afford to lose days, months or even years without making changes or improvements to the product or service. Although the phrase "if something works, do not touch it" is well known, any business area has its life cycle, which, after success, always ends.
5. Work with enthusiasm, enthusiasm and motivation: You do not have to never forget what I take you to undertake, to achieve your dreams. If you have had so much "fortune, luck or you have been in the right place or moment" it is because you deserve it, but that essence and character can never fail you. Therefore, positive attitude and do not decline. If there is a bad time "it is allowed to fall, but it is mandatory to get up".
6. You must like what you do: With this principle you always win, since it is a situation where you not only work to "earn a living", you also enjoy doing what you do. Even if there are hard times, you have to seize the occasion and be happy with your work and satisfied when you know that in addition to liking you do well.
7. Be original in content and in form: Not only must you be creative when it comes to creating the business, but also how to manage and advertise it. It is always best to have a good design that appeals and draws attention to ensure public approval. Here you can get some creative ideas on web templates.
8. Be up-to-date in the area of your business: informed and alert, the famous awareness. That is to say, to be attentive of the tendencies, crises and possible opportunities that can arise in the day to day with the news of the environment. It is advisable to see at least two or three times a week the news in the way you like most, whether official offline and online (press, radio, TV), and social networks, which are like a barometer of what happens in the day to day: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, G+.
Lead and communicate well
9. Be a good leader and good communicator: It is a basic requirement if you are in charge of coordinating or being the head of one or several departments. Are the leader and communicator born or made? It is always the same question: they have to have aptitudes and attitudes and to improve with the experience. If you are not a good leader, or "you have no leader wood" and you are not good at communicating, you can train and you will improve over time.
10. Do not follow all the advice of the people around you: When it comes to entrepreneurship, if it is the first time you do it, if you surround yourself in an environment of experienced people (or sometimes even without it), you are sure to get several tips on how to do this or that: that to know is that few people have absolute success and that total success is ephemeral and never achieved 100%, because it is so similar to happiness.
11. Formulate, form and do not stop training and learning: Every day you learn something new, whether with courses, with lectures, with seminars, with books, with day to day living, offline and online. With experience and without it, we can always continue to learn.
12. Take care of your business, as if it were your own child: passion, affection and dedication. It is true that it is not a son; it is something that you cannot feel, although it does feel. That feeling of dedication will later lead you to pride if you get great things: it is similar to having a child and achieving important things in life.
13. Do not hesitate: Neither yourself nor your company, when something starts to question is bad. It is good to always try to improve, but not with doubts. Do not be hesitant and always go for everything. If something is learned in life and in business, it is not to doubt, and in the face of doubt, it is best to take a chance.
14. Encourage a good working climate: both individually and collectively, it is necessary to always have a relaxed atmosphere and a place where one can find comfortable working.
Being an entrepreneur can be very easy for some and a little more difficult for others, since our attitude, disposition, environment and skills, are more or less favorable for independent activities or as employees. For some, the entrepreneurial disposition will flow naturally as if they were born with it, and for others it will present a few more stumbles and blockades, which it becomes necessary to overcome.
