SUCCESSFUL
ENTREPRENEURS

Ozella
PERSEVERANCE
Entrepreneurs inevitably face challenges, even setbacks,
during their quest for business success.
Successful entrepreneurship requires that you persevere and
pursue your idea even when your situation appears bleak .
The willingness to try and fail and try again
 SELF-DISCIPLINE

Entrepreneurs must posses a high

level of self-discipline.
(No boss leaning over your
shoulder, and nobody forces you to
get out of bed in the morning and
go to work.)
COMPETITIVENESS

You’ll need to possess a competitive spirit to beat your

competitors, much like an athlete who attempts to defeat
her opponent.
You also need to take the time to study the competition to
understand what they do right and wrong, which results
in a beneficial learning experience.
SELF-MOTIVATED

An entrepreneur is intrinsically motivated as there is

typically no financial reward in the beginning stages of
starting a business. Rather than wait for progress and
success.
An entrepreneur takes whatever action is necessary to
facilitate these things.
 LEADERSHIP SKILLS

According to Jason Bowser in his article, Whether

overseeing a team of two or 200, entrepreneurs
must have strong leadership qualities,
An entrepreneur must have the ability to motivate
his employees to work together toward their goals,
which requires earning their trust and respect.
RISK-TAKERS

a person who is willing to do things that involve danger

or risk in order to achieve a goal
INNOVATIVE(CREATIVE)

All businesses began with an idea, such as create fashionable

apparel from recycled clothing or connect travelers all over
the world with a free online travel network.
The ability to not only come up with new ideas but develop
and improve them as the business grows is an essential
characteristic of a good entrepreneur.
PASSION
You don't have to adore every aspect of your business to
be a successful entrepreneur.
You do need deep passion for making your business a
success, because this passion will take you through
difficult tasks on the way to the part of your business that
ignites your spirit and heart.
TECHNOLOGY SAVVY

All of the most successful entrepreneurs of recent years

have used technology to their advantage, from
Microsoft's Bill Gates to Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg.
You don't have to invent new technology, but using tech trends to
save time and increase profit can give your business a strong
advantage.
