Entrepreneur is a Way of Life

In a previous blog, we clarified that the only reason you contact a business is because you need something from them. How you live your life determines if you are a worker or an entrepreneur: we solve problems. You are living a problematic life, filled with consistent planning, strategic decisions, and taking different actions. You have to be the kind of person that people goes to when they need help.

As an entrepreneur, you can capably deal with problems. Problems are your life. You are always on the go, consistently dealing with problems – and probably never have a dull moment. There will be time when these problems makes you uncomfortable. You are reading this blog for different reasons, and we write it because we know that being an entrepreneur is about being a problem solver.

Don’t be too pessimistic now, about dealing with problems. The fact is you deal with them all the time. It is simply a matter of perspectives. When you feel hungry, which is a problem, then you eat. This is a perfect example, but we don’t see them as a problem, but as a day-to-day life. Business life is the same, but more complex.

The point is that it will be in our nature as eating and drinking. The only difference are the options, stimulations and dynamic of what to come. Do I dare compare that to options of food to eat? When people starts a new business, they mostly focus on getting it off the ground. They can focus on several things at the same time. It could be breaking even on the financial statement, or what to do with all the money we will make, before they even make it.

They could also consider how far the business will go – financially. Very few people focus on the non-financial part of the business to impact its revenue. In the complexity that occurs, you need to always plan the next step, and not dwelling in current problems. In this lifestyle, every success will lead to the next plan, and it will continue in that order.

With strategies, we will be executing plans, because it is in our nature, and we can’t shake it off. Even when dealing with the normal activities that involve us personally, because we will consistently think strategically, and contingency plan will be on the back of our head. You should just go out and do something like other businessmen.
