Entrepreneurial Mindset – Mosquito In A Nudist Colony
There are so many opportunities on the internet today it resembles the choices of a mosquito in a nudist colony. So how do you choose? Being an entrepreneur is fabulous, especially in the ideal situation for you.
Do you look for the one who promises the most money? Some are promising such outrageous amounts that it looks like you are winning the lottery every week.
Do you look for the one who claims to be the easiest? Just purchase your starter kit, sit back and watch the money roll into you bank account. No effort required.
Do you look for the one that claims to have a miracle product? Ponce de Leon, Spanish explorer, reputedly sought a miracle fountain in Florida in 1513. Legend says that anyone who drank of this fountain would have their youth restored. Some products on the internet today expound similar magical claims.
Hate to destroy your delusion; however, the word “business” means some time, effort and money required. The advertisements may tap dance around the word “business” by terming it an “opportunity” but few actually say “get rich quick.” The gurus at Google would go into cardiac arrest and shut the site down quicker than a shopaholic dashing to a blow out sale at Nordstrom if someone really dared to publish “get rich quick.”
There are genuine, honest, ethical business opportunities advertised on the internet. The challenge is sorting through all of the empty oyster shells to find the pearl. The pearls really do exist but not every business is appropriate for every entrepreneur.
No entrepreneur will make significant money for the long term without adhering to a few basic rules. Take it from an industry leader:
1. Is the business legal? Is it registered with state and national governmental agencies? Do not be confused with having it listed on the Better Business Bureau. BBB is an excellent organization which does research companies; however, BBB is a “for profit” organization NOT a government agency. Research the company with state and federal attorney generals and look for the number of complaints listed. No one will EVER have a perfect record if they have any length of time in business and have reached a sizable sales volume. No one will ever satisfy 100 per cent of the people 100 per cent of the time. Business deals with people and personalities. Do look for a minimum of complaints and look at the resolution of those issues.
2. Is the business ethical? Of course no one is dumb enough to feature the comments and testimonies of highly disgruntled people. Ask to speak to recent enrollees as well as longer term members of the company. Just the fact that they will furnish names and phone numbers shows the people featured are real live individuals. Ask to attend a live call.
3. Is the product something useful for the long term rather than a trendy “pet rock?” Look for something which transcends the fluctuations in the economy. In the go go 80s you could sell almost anything. In a more challenging economy, people seek more immediate value which can not be located at the corner drug store.
4. Select a company and a product which fits your interests. Select either something you already have some knowledge or desire to gain knowledge about. You will always be more successful working in your talent, interest or passion.
5. Select a compensation plan which fits your short term and long term budget for start up as well as meeting your income potential goals. Some compensation plans allow you to earn from your first sale and other compensation plans make you pass up sales before you earn any money. Anyone on a tight budget may run out of marketing dollars before they pass up enough sales to start earning income for themselves. Look at all the factors and make a wise decision.
Selecting the ideal business for you involves a variety of factors. For personalized assistance in selecting the perfect entrepreneurial opportunity to fit your passion, your budget and your goals, come talk to me. There is gold dust in the air. The gold dust is an attitude backed by action. The key is selecting the right business at the right time for your abilities and goals. Join me at www.Elaine4Success.com. When the business opportunity fit is accurate and the correct action follows, the gold dust appears.

Entrepreneurial Thinking
How do you handle life’s little unexpected inconveniences?
Normally I am bubbly, enthusiastic, and in control of myself and my circumstances. Yesterday there was a glitch in the conference call system and I could not sign in to the call. As the call host, it was quite awkward not to be present and punctual. I apologized a bit too profusely. My normal unflappable composure collapsed.
What is the lesson here? Let go of trying to be perfect. Allow yourself to be human. It is not a matter of IF there will be glitches in the schedule, but WHEN there are glitches. Of course one of the characteristics of successful entrepreneurs is calmness under pressure. Does that mean that as an entrepreneur you are expected to be perfect 100% of the time? Absolutely not. It means that as a successful entrepreneur you strive to be as good as you possibly can be.
Ever know a major league baseball star to hit a home run every tie at bat? No. Ever know a highly accomplished Hollywood screen star to get an academy award for every performance? No. Why do entrepreneurs put pressure on themselves to be perfect 100% of the time? Get a grip on reality. What makes us think we are above and beyond all of the statistics?
Now that we have had our slice of humble pie, relax. Of course the Hollywood star steps on stage with the intention of performing their every best every time. Yes, the major league baseball star goes to bat with the intention of a good solid base hit. Successful people never approach a situation with the intention to be average.
Can you imagine a corporation proudly announcing that they were seeking a mediocre advertising agency? Of course not. An employee might go to work with the goal of “getting through the day,” but an entrepreneurial mindset would never tolerate such a thought. Average or just getting through the day is NOT entrepreneurial thinking.
Since the characteristics of successful entrepreneurs demands striving for perfection, the very idea of average is appalling. Henry Ford did not create the automobile by giving up at the first glitch. Andrew Carnegie did not amass a fortune in steel by doing the minimum possible amount of effort.
Entrepreneurial traits drive the individual to seek new creative ideas, seek new and better performance from themselves and seek the top performance in everything they do. Will they always achieve perfection? No but they will keep striving to be the best they can possible be. When they fall short, they analyze what happened and determine how they can do better the next time.
Being a perfectionist is one of the characteristics of successful entrepreneurs. What is your goal?

Entrepreneurial Mindset – Achieve Your Dreams
Throughout history we have progressed from the Agricultural Age through the Industrial Age, and through the Information Age. The common thread running uniting all of the economic changes has been the individual entrepreneur.
Small business managed and developed by the individual entrepreneur forms the basis of all economic progress. The individual entrepreneur who possesses a burning desire to create a business of their own stimulates economic advances.
The Pilgrims were farmers who traveled to America to be able to settle new land and develop their enterprises. They were so adamant that they put their lives on the line to be able to conduct their businesses in peace and freedom.
The gold rush was individual miners who struck out on their own at great peril to seek their fortune. Covered wagons rolled across the prairie in search of acreages to homestead. Herds of cattle were driven hundreds of miles to stake out new ranches.
Bill Gates started Microsoft in a garage. Thomas Edison had a small laboratory to conduct his experiments. Henry Ford started Ford Motor Company in a tiny space working on the development of his horseless carriage. Andrew Carnegie started out with an idea and developed it into a huge empire.
Throughout the entire world, it has been the entrepreneur with a dream, an idea and more motivation than money who changed the course of history.
Think it is too late for a new idea? Wrong. The telephone and telegraph started with a simple idea to communicate ideas more easily. Every step of the way from the first crank telephones to the modern I-phone were all spearheaded by an entrepreneur with a dream.
New and better ideas continue to flow. With each new idea, there is the springboard for another ever more progressive idea. You are only limited by your imagination. You may have made the excuse about having a lack of money. As the beloved business philosopher, Jim Rohn, said, “Lack of money is not the problem; it is the lack of an idea to create money that is the issue.” Ideas are free. Developing the idea will require some time, effort and dedication.
What is your future worth?
Education helps, money helps but the critical element is always passion. Nothing and no one can stop an entrepreneur with a burning desire. If you listen to your critics, you will never accomplish anything of merit. Critics frequently want to keep you down on their level rather than providing the jet fuel to boost you to the heights you are destined to achieve.
At the end of your life do you want to know that you gave your dream the chance to develop to its fullest potential or regret that you took the safe road and did nothing? The discipline to develop your dream weighs ounces but the pain of regret weighs tons. Jim Rohn spoke volumes with those few words. “We cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are, ” Max DePree. Stretch your wings and discover your passion. Discover that burning desire resting dormant within your soul. Allow yourself to become the entrepreneur you are capable of being.
New ideas are being developed each day. Education, age, economic background, and physical location are minor factors. A heartfelt passion and a desire to develop yourself as an entrepreneur is the only critical element.
What excuse are you allowing to hold you back from taking charge of your future? Entrepreneurial mindset is an entrepreneur with a mindset backed by action just as believing in and realizing gold dust in the air is an attitude backed by action. Entrepreneurs believe in and experience the gold dust. With the gold dust comes an overwhelming feeling of accomplishment, happiness and success.

Entreprenuerial Mindset – Second Thoughts Destroy Dreams
I remember that feeling of failure. Property owners, employees and tourists were looking up to me as the leader they trusted and I failed. My self esteem drained away. It seemed like a good decision at the time. Have you ever had second thoughts about a decision? Some decisions are reversible and some are not. Selling a business, end of the year tax losses and having a baby are not reversible. Come to think of it, there are painful similarities.
Why had I sold Mt. Castles? My attitude and my self confidence plummeted and my business disappeared quicker than a snowflake in hot coffee. I could blame the economy, the president or the dog catcher. The problem was my attitude and my action. My lack of Entrepreneurial Mindset.
I had allowed my attitude and my business to come crashing down. When my attitude and self confidence plummeted, my business profits followed suit. I allowed second thoughts and doubt to destroy a great business.
Money does not disappear, it simply changes hands. The words of Paul Zane Pilzer, economic adviser to 2 presidents rang in my ear. “There will be more millionaires created between 2006 and 2016 than at any prior point in the history of the world.” With all of this prosperity, how could my attitude be down?
What was the secret to all of my success in the past?
Everyone I talked to told me I couldn’t do it. I’d go broke. It could not be done with single family homes. Property management only works with condominiums. I had 3 things going for me; I love a challenge, I was naive and it’s the go go 80′s. You didn’t have to be good to make money.
No second thoughts. Back it with action and go for it. There are advantages to being naïve. Jump off the business cliff and look for a golden parachute on the way down. I had a clear plan of action.
Sometimes plans are disrupted. Owners of the first home I managed were 2 young venture capitalists. Great young guys. Easy to work with, generous and creative. They owned a car rental agency based out of Boca Raton, FL. One day I received a call from Federal Marshall Jim Tafoya of the DEA. The cars carried more than people across state lines. The guys may now be having second thoughts. They had been concentrating on powder but theirs was not Steamboat’s legendary snowflakes. They were working with another white powder. Poof. The federal marshals became the new owners of the property.
Federal Marshalls do not have second thoughts about white powder.
Mt. Castles kept growing. Even after I won the “Innovator of the Year” award for being the first property management company in Routt County to market ski lodging on the internet, I allowed my significant other, Matt, I changed the name to protect the guilty, to tell me how small and insignificant a company I was. My self confidence evaporated and so did my profits. Poof. Just like the powder, everything came crashing down. Attitude is not the only thing, but it is the main thing. I defeated myself.
I could blame Matt, the economy or George Bush, but it was my own second thoughts. My own self doubt had destroyed my business and made the decision to sell Mt. Castles.
Paul Zane Pilzer’s words rang in my ear, “more millionaires created than at any prior point in the history of the world. . .” Clear my head; restore my confidence. Dust off my attitude and back it with action. If I allowed second thoughts to destroy my attitude, then I have the power to bring it back. Stick to your goals. Don’t allow second thoughts to destroy your dreams.

Characteristics of An Entrepreneur – Creating WOW Service
You are in the business of creating WOW. Be so good that they can not ignore you. Be so good that the only question of doubt is who is second. These are characteristics of an Entrepreneur.
Create your WOW with a gold dust in the air attitude and back it with solid goal directed action. WOW comes from a positive attitude. Attracting the top people to you stems from being a person others like to be around. No one enjoys spending time with grumpy, complaining people. It does not mean you have to turn cartwheels, most of us do not do that on a regular basis, but it does mean that you display a pleasing personality, zest for life and spirit of giving value.
Look at the WOW as W O VV – wealth of value value. The key to creating WOW is doubling the value received by everyone you encounter. When you interact with others in a spirit of giving value to them far in excess of the monetary exchange, you create a win win situation. Double the value and you double the win.
Look at life and business in the spirit of looking in the mirror to see what you can give of yourself rather than looking through a window to see what the outside world can give to you. Rotary Clubs International has a motto of service before self. That gold dust in the air attitude epitomizes the positive outlook on life and the mission of giving value to others. A person who is more concerned about giving value and excellent customer service than they are about their individual income in each interaction, will in fact receive more. Greed is short term. Value is long term.
Look at a W as two Vs put together. Create a gold dust in the air attitude by expecting good things to appear, acting as if the good will appear and serving others by projecting the attitude of giving value to them.
Creating WOW is as simple as focusing on the value you give to others. The top companies who thrive for the long term are always the top customer service companies. It always costs less to retain a customer than to attract a new customer. Customers stay where they are appreciated and receiving value.
Project a gold dust in the air attitude and others will feel good about being around you, customers will choose to do business with you and you will feel better about yourself and your business. It really is as simple as having a gold dust in the air attitude and backing it with positive action. That positive action starts with giving value and follows through with giving excellent customer service.
1. Gold dust in the air attitude
2. Give value which exceeds expectation and price
3. Give excellent customer service
Develop a gold dust in the air attitude and back it with positive action.

Brand Success

Think big, but start small. So you have big dreams. . . great. Big dreams are only casual flights of fancy unless you back them with action. Daydreams flitter away like dry leaves in a stiff breeze. Turn those daydreams into the glimmer and glow of genuine potential by forming a solid business plan.
Step one in brand success requires deciding exactly what you passionately desire to do. A passionate desire differs from a casual wish by your degree of commitment to make it come true. If your life depended on your business success, you would get up early, stay up late and focus with laser sharp detail. If you are only seeking a few dollars as pocket change for “fine if I do or fine if I don’t” items, you will give up at the slightest little bump in the road. Passion exists in a business survival mode but not in a casual “take it or leave it” attitude. If the life of your child depended on you acquiring twenty thousand dollars for an operation, you would find a way to obtain the money.
Step one is determining what you are passionate about doing for your career.
Step two of brand success refines that passion into a workable specific business. Perhaps your passion is helping people save their homes from going into foreclosure. You could start a mortgage company offering refinancing services. You could offer credit counseling services. You could offer guaranteed program which cuts through all of the government red tape and reduces their mortgage loan to an affordable rate. This plan would also forgive prior missed payments. There are many ways you could dovetail your passion into a solid productive business for you which truly helps your fellow citizens.
Step two is refining your passion into the best possible business for you.
Step three of brand success means creating an eye-catching business name. There are several criteria in creating the ideal business name. The name should instantly telegraph what your business does. The name should be short and catchy in order to be memorable. It can and probably will have a tagline under the name further defining and clarifying the business purpose and scope of goods or services. “Mountain Castles” Comprehensive Property Management indicates that it is a property management company, not a real estate sales company, specializing in luxury single family homes in the mountains, particularly ski resorts.
Step three was creating a specific identifiable business name.
Step four of brand success revolves around selecting your most appropriate colors to accent and clarify your business. Color selection is a lengthy art in itself. If you were doing a fresh fruit stand, you would not choose black; rotten fruit colors would be counter productive. A day care center would choose cheerful colors rather than brown and beige. New Millionaire Blueprint chose the deep blue for trust. Matching your colors to your business, your product or service, your personality and your taste becomes a very personalized art. Nonetheless, it is an extremely important step in the branding process.
Step four becomes color selection.
Step five of brand success requires the development of a logo to bland the name, colors and identifiable image. Mountain Castles was represented by an elegant medieval castle on a mountain top. Tiger in High Heels depicts an elegant feminine lady with the watermark image of a tiger behind her; the immediate impression conveyed is femininity with a strong assertive “no nonsense” professional approach. Once again, logos are very personal and must coordinate with the business name, colors and personality of the owner.
Step five represents the creation of the logo.
Step six of brand success details the creation of the business plan to take the new business owner from the starting blocks to the finish line. A detailed business plan requires precise step by step activities with periodic progress checks to move the new business forward in a logical progression. Thus is also a lengthy process requiring careful thought and determination to follow through with the required action. This is not to be entered into lightly.
Creating true brand success demands a solid thoughtful plan all dovetailing into a structured and implementable long term goal.
- Find your passion
- Refine your passion into a specific business
- Determine your business name
- Determine your color identification
- Craft your logo
- Create your business plan

Blueprint for Success – Create a Specific Plan

Would you order a truck load of building materials, a backhoe to dig the foundation, and no blueprint for the structure? Of course not, that would be foolhardy. No one in their right mind would spend thousands on materials and equipment without a specific blueprint for success. Most people spend months designing the perfect structure. Building departments and homeowner associations need to approve the plans as well. The blueprint details exactly what materials are needed and exactly how they will be assembled. The larger or more complicated the structure, the more elaborate the blueprints.
Unfortunately it is quite common for people to start a business without any blueprint for success whatsoever. The more common delusion follows a pattern of:
- Buy a business on emotion. Most people buy on emotion rather than logic. Accountants and engineers are more likely to buy on logic and analytics; however, it is generally accepted that most people purchase on emotion. Frank Rumbauskas of “Sales Tips and Advice” declares that “People buy on emotion and justify with logic.” The fact that emotions overrule logic explains why experienced sales people sell based on benefits rather than selling based on features. “Don’t tell me what it does. Tell me what it will do for me.”
- Now that I have a company, what do I do with it? It is like the dog chasing cars. It seems like fun at the time but they have absolutely no idea what to do with it if they ever caught it.
My suggestion is set your goals. What income do you desire to make? Set a specific blueprint for success to map out the road from where you are to your desired goal.
- One of the major elements of your blueprint for success will be your marketing plan. What funds do you have available for your marketing budget? What marketing skills do you possess? What marketing skills do you need to learn? Marketing either requires time or money. A small marketing budget means you had better plan on spending much more time. Which do you have more of, time or money? A larger marketing budget means that you can advertise in more expensive but less time consuming venues.
Social network marketing, web 2.0, is quite inexpensive financially but extremely time consuming. Google pay per click requires far less time once it is all set up and rolling; however, it is one of the most expensive forms of marketing.
- Once your business has been purchased, your exact path to success determined, your marketing established, and your leads flowing, you need to follow up with those leads. Until you are consistently making 10,000 per month, I recommend following up with every leads. Personally, I like to talk to my people so I still call every lead possible within the time frame available for prospecting. Each lead also receives both a personal email and a series of autoresponders. Any lead, potential business partner, who attends a business presentation also receives another follow up call and email. The serious individuals are then taken to a 3 way call for third party validation; the 3 way also assures the new individual that they will not have to answer questions when they get started. The removal of the fear of answering questions eases many nervous minds and sweaty palms.
The blueprint for success is simply a step by step focused plan to take you from initial idea all the way through to money in your bank account.

Making Money Working From Home
You want to be an entrepreneur? Great. As one who is and has been psychologically unemployable for over 30 years, I personify the entrepreneurial mindset.
Making money from home requires a committed entrepreneurial mindset. The characteristics of the entrepreneurial mindset are as different as the behavior of a rhinoceros and a cow. The rhinoceros charges through the jungle breaking through shrubbery barriers on a direct mission toward the goal. The cow stands in the field eating grass and waiting for hay to be brought to them when the grass is unavailable. A rhino will go after the food rather than sitting around passively waiting for it to come to them.
Compare the rhinoceros mindset to the entrepreneurial mindset. The rhinoceros goes after the goal as does the entrepreneur. The cow performs the basic duties required of it at the will and direction of someone else and expects the hay or grass to be presented to them. The employee performs the duties required of them by the boss and expects the pay check to be delivered to them.
The entrepreneurial mindset has an overwhelming desire to create their own duties on their own time schedule and reap the significantly higher rewards of that extra individual effort. By the same token, the entrepreneurial mindset accepts the responsibility of their decisions, good or bad. The employee expects to receive the pay check on a regular basis regardless of the consequences of each individual decision; after all, it was not entirely their decision, it was either the decision of the boss or with the approval of the boss.
The rhino and the entrepreneur effect to receive the rewards of their efforts and the consequences of their actions. Making money working from home requires the entrepreneurial mindset. You are your own boss when you are an entrepreneur.
Another aspect of the entrepreneurial mindset is the constant drive to do better, do more and be more creative. In order to be making money working from home, you absolutely must focus your mind on the task at hand. Be creating, be willing to take a risk on a new marketing campaign or new marketing method, and be decisive. No boss will be making the decision for you, nor do you want them to make decisions for you. Look carefully at each option and make a decision. Analysis paralysis will not be tolerated. Time becomes an important commodity; time must be focused and used wisely, not wasted. Wise time management is critical to making money working from home.
If you desire to be making money working from home, develop your entrepreneurial mindset and put it into action with focused time and effort. The rewards will thrill you.

Characteristics of Successful Entrepreneurs

In this world of few guarantees, rest assured that a successful entrepreneur is never ever lazy. The entrepreneurial mindset seems to remain in motion. One of the most difficult tasks for a successful entrepreneur is to turn off the flow of creative ideas. There is always one more thing they want to do, one more advertising campaign to launch, and one more marketing strategy to explore. If you were ever in their bedroom you would find a notepad on the night stand for those flashes of brilliance which awaken them in the middle of the night.
Another of the characteristics of successful entrepreneurs is their constant quest to do just a little better or do just a little more. They are always seeking perfection. This tendency to constantly tweak a logo or a brochure or even an office procedure can drive those around them to reach for the chocolate or the tenth cup of coffee. Entrepreneurs may not always be easy to live with because of this constant drive. We have even been called such names as “workaholic.” Imagine that.
Yes, we immerse ourselves so fully in the task at hand that we forget to bring home the milk; time just flies by and the focus is on the project of the moment. Don’t be frustrated with the entrepreneurial mindset; it is simply one of the characteristics of a successful entrepreneur.
Examine the entrepreneurial mindset and you will find a checkerboard. Each task has its own individual square; however there is also the larger puzzle of making each square function to lead to the ultimate goal of becoming a king. Strategic individual moves, awareness of the moves around them, and target focus on the ultimate goal are all working simultaneously.
The entrepreneurial mindset is complicated but invigorated at all times. This moving, thriving energetic mind is one of the characteristics of successful entrepreneurs.
Another characteristic will be the ready smile and the excitement for life. It is not uncommon to find another characteristic of successful entrepreneurs to be rising early and retiring to bed late. It is that “one more thing to do” thought pattern.
So if you call your successful entrepreneur and ask him to stop at the store on his way home from the office and he forgets to do so, just smile. It is just one of the characteristics of a successful entrepreneur. Bring them a cool beverage, a warm smile and forgiveness for the oversight.
Blueprint For Success – Dare To Suffer Through Pain
“When you dare to dream, dare to follow that dream; dare to suffer through the pain, sacrifice, self-doubts and friction from the world.”
– Laura Schlessinger, talk-show host
What is it worth to you to have a reliable blueprint for success? Think it is complicated? Actually it is quite simple.
- Find your passion
- Convert that passion into the ideal business for you
- Write out very specific, SMART, goals
- Write a detailed business plan which takes you from your starting point to your victory line.
- Take focused goal directed action toward your ultimate target
- Constantly check your progress and make course adjustments on steps 3, 4, and 5 as needed.
- Repeat until successful
Your blueprint for success is quite simple and logical; the problem is that it is not easy.
Your mind wanders to family activities, your feet wander out to the kitchen or the snack bar, and the lure of the internet tempts you to search for this or that rather than concentrate on work.
You flounder around like a fish out of water not knowing your true passion. You spend endless hours, months and years working at something you do not like. Why are you wasting your precious time? Do you think you have no choice because you must make a living? Are you paralyzed by fear of making a change? Are you stuck in analysis paralysis?
Look deep into your soul and be objective. If you keep doing what you have been doing where will you be five years from now? In order to have a different result, you must do something differently.
Your blueprint for success in business is the same as your blueprint for success in your physical fitness or your weight. You do not become physically fit by sitting on the couch watching an exercise program or reading an exercise book. You become fit by repeatedly performing specific exercises designed for your fitness goals. You release weight (don’t want to lose it because you might find it again) by carefully planning the right foods to pass from your hand to your open mouth and then consuming only those foods.
Finding your passion is the essential first step to the process. What activities inspire you? What are you doing when you feel most energized? What are you doing when you feel the happiest? There are specific exercises you can perform to locate your passion. These are a start in the right direction.
The next step is converting that passion into the ideal business for you. Is it really possible? Yes. That conversion is more personalized. Locating the perfect business for your passion encompasses the passion, the initial business investment budget, the time available to work the business, the ultimate goal and the ongoing budget.
