Dear entrepreneur, keep your head in the game!
The phrase entrepreneur represents a definition and experience that is significantly different for everyone in the business field. Multiple factors contribute to this, as well, based on aspects as your location, standard of economy, etc. Definitively, let us talk about how much it requires commonality in mindset, endurance and resiliency.
For me, an entrepreneur is being a risk-taker. A person who is a big thinker, a creative and a solver-of-problems. You see an issue, you almost begin to feel obligated to find a way and solve it.
You love ideas, and you also find interest in getting to the bottom of making it make sense. Your world meets at the intersection of idealism and pragmatism. You do not only have great ideas when you want to process the information around you, but you also make feasibility occur to you.
This is something I want you to fully admire about yourself because you are a part of a circle that requires not only meeting surface level decisions. You may often have to dive twenty thousand feet below sea level or high above altitude with a fifty percent-loaded, economically-restrictive, "because I cannot predict the future highs and lows of society" oxygen tank for a time I am not sure of meeting its expiration. Severely contradictory, absolutely absurd, and temptingly risky, isn't it? I could not imagine or even allow you to think otherwise because that is exactly what it is.
At what point of this entrepreneurship spectrum you are, more idealistic or practical, varies from time to time, but you are always there on that scale because your business constantly require and demand both sides.
Another most amazing characteristic of being an entrepreneur is that you are resourceful. No matter how much or less you have of or are way into your prototype, you are going to figure a way around, through or out of it. If your objectives carry a high calibre of standard, you are going to make IT happen, true?
You are well-rounded and there is so much in disguise that entrepreneurism is going to allow you to witness. And if you have already witnessed enough and remain standing behind your venture with the same quality standard, go ahead and agree to the three words I mentioned earlier: MINDSET, ENDURANCE, RESILIENCY. There are weighty substances supporting them each. And if you happen to think otherwise, go research and feel free to negate. Simply make sure you are prepared for a dissertation in combat (lol, just joking).
Failing is a another key component. An entrepreneur is required to learn ways of navigating failure and setback. Failing mean a few things, and one of them demand that you retreat, reset, recharge and restore for the very sake of your...
...mindset, endurance and resiliency.
As an entrepreneur, you are creating an ecosystem. You are shifting an entire culture from a problem you identified, to it being solved.
As an entrepreneur, you are on a "ship" often unmatched.
It requires so much of yourself that you may not even be able to comprehend at times.
"What am I doing?" You may ask. Yet, along the journey, multiple insights remind you that in keeping up the mindset, endurance and resiliency, you are bound to unquestioningly remain in fertilised pastures. And this can only mean several things, I am sure above others, healthy growth or evolution of your product or service!
