Intelligence and sense of opportunity
From a question: What does it take to be a true entrepreneur ?, I began to think about the following characteristics to consider:
In the motivation part:
1. Capacity for commitment: Both with yourself and with others.
2. Vocation for work: Every day, almost all day until initiatives are carried out.
3. Constancy: That it can be combined with perseverance and faith. If the entrepreneur does not believe in himself and his project, he is destined to fail.
4. Push: It is the ability to take initiatives forward, the level of sacrifice and dedication and the desire to fulfill dreams.
5. Physical courage and great enthusiasm for all kinds of ideas: Passivity is not a characteristic of an entrepreneur, enthusiasm and continuous movement do.
As for knowing:
1. Knowledge: Being an entrepreneur requires knowledge of the topics to be developed in projects or activities, whatever they may be.
2. Culture: In a broad sense, knowing how to adapt to different situations and knowing how to behave in the face of circumstances.
There are other, not so obvious capabilities:
1. Ability to associate: A great idea, hardly developed by a person, the ability to associate (well) is key to success.
2. Ability to command: Being the boss is not synonymous with power, being the guide or leader if it is….
3. Vision: Where other people see a problem or a difficulty, a true entrepreneur sees an opportunity…
4. Generation of Ideas: It is necessary to have ideas, constantly rethink and implement them.
5. Ability to take risks: He who does not risk…. Do not win.
6. Ability to measure risk: Know exactly what I am playing and what are my opportunities, weaknesses and strengths.
7. Capacity for self-criticism: No one is perfect, learning from mistakes and being aware of them is essential.
8. Independence: To make decisions and give mandates: It is the idea of undertaking, achieving your own goals.
Other features:
Ability to understand the legal, credit and financial procedures that are presented
Ability to innovate and respond to adversity
Many times I have found that an enterprising person must be sociable, charming and must have the ability to summon.
The important thing is to value your work, and make yourself worthwhile as an intellectual and human being.
Very important: Intelligence and analytical skills….
One of the great advantages that new entrepreneurs have is that they are dreamers and are generally not contaminated with all the risks. They are more aggressive than their competitors in establishing a clear strategy and having defined objectives.
What is an entrepreneur? He is an individual who is capable of undertaking a project that is rejected by the majority. He knows how to interpret the real characteristics of the environment even though they are not apparent to his competition. He is able to fight against any inconvenience that crosses his strategy and he is not afraid of failure. Furthermore, he is able to create a motivated group that gives him the required structure.
For many, success is considered a factor of luck and they contain their lamentations in the little happiness they have obtained. These represent the entrepreneurial opposite. They are not able to accept the real reasons that produce wealth and will always be dissatisfied ex officio and dissatisfied with their trades.
We all have the potential, we just need to start to get ahead
