"Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you and you can change it, you can influence it." -Steve Jobs Entrepreneurs who attain a certain mindset are the ones who ultimately succeed. This mindset has four, intertwining aspects. Follow your instincts. A survey by the Kauffman Foundation found 98% of company founders said the willingness to take risks is the usual stepping stone to entrepreneurial success. Successful entrepreneurs relied on their “gut-feeling” when it came to hiring people for their business. Stay curious, learn new skills. Studies of Stanford alumni have shown that people with a greater variety of roles in in previous jobs are more likely to become entrepreneurs. The smallest lesson learned can make a big difference in business. Let go and delegate. A great idea can turn into a great business only when you find and trust the right people to help make it happen. Entrepreneurs need help accomplishing their goals. Hire great people to work in the business so you have the time to work on the business. Anticipate failure. Making it big on the first try is a rare story. The path to success is not straight. No matter how meticulously you plan, you’re going to make a mistake. Maybe more than one. Some entrepreneurs, fixated on the idea that they’ll succeed on the first try, give up without a second try. By not anticipating failure, they failed. #achievetoday #success 4 SECRETS OF SUCCESS AMID ADVERSITY Adversity is a constant companion in life but learning to push through tough times is a lesson sometimes harshly taught. Here are four secrets that can be applied to succeed at your goals. BE PASSIONATE Faced with adversity, it is hard to dream big. Fear and anxiety can be overwhelming. Being passionate about something – anything – gives clarity to dreams, lifts our spirit, sharpens our focus and creates a vision of better times ahead. FIND A MENTOR “When the student is ready the teacher appears.” Good mentors don’t just teach; they inspire. They raise the bar not so you will fail but so you will grow, not so you curse defeat but so you appreciate gain. They do not change who you are, they change who you believe you can become. MAKE A PROMISE Studies confirm that verbally committing to something programs our mind to hold to that obligation even if it is difficult or dangerous. We take ourselves very seriously. OUTWORK EVERYBODY Dreams are a chassis but sweat is the fuel. Imagine a Ferrari in the driveway – nice to look at, but without gas, it sits idle. Success is earned by tuning out the noise and getting to work. Many of our students join one of our several programs looking for some type of change in their lives. Among those most common changes is related to financial freedom in one form or another. At Achieve Today we really understand that desire. We’ve worked with literally thousands of people to help identify the pathway to feeling financially secure. There a number of ways to find, attract, or otherwise obtain money. But one of our favorite ways is to encourage people to start their own businesses. Often times people have been thinking about a business idea – in many cases they’ve had this idea cooking in the back of their minds for literally dozens of years! For those, the key is to TAKE ACTION and our coaches help them outline the steps to overcome whatever blocks have prevented them from starting that business. For others who have always wanted to start a business but don’t know where to begin we offer the following Five steps to starting your own business 1. Identify your natural passions and talents and match that with a potential market need (stay tuned for more a more in-depth blog post coming shortly). 2. Specify what that product or service should be (or already is). 3. Choose how to deliver that product or service (store front or perhaps a website). 4. Identify your customers and create an appealing offer. 5. Take Action! If you have the desire to own your own business, take a few hours to sketch out some thoughts on the five areas mentioned above and set a launch date 30 days from today. 30 days you say?! Will your product be completely ready? Probably not. But don’t let that hold you back. Companies are always changing their products and adapting to market demands (just think about how many versions of the iPhone there are or will be). The point is, to TAKE ACTION. Get your idea to market quickly and start getting that customer feedback as soon as you can. Owning your own business can be very rewarding. The ability to choose for yourself how you want your product to look or how to best deliver meaningful customer service is a very liberating feeling. It’s a lot of work, but don’t get stuck in the details. Take action today. You’ll be surprised what you can achieve in 30 days.
