The contractor is not perfect. But since you want to become a large, one who succeeds, you should know what this means for you to get started. This lets you know where you are and the way that you have to do. It is given to everybody to aspire to entrepreneurship, but not everybody will not. Can you one day be an entrepreneur? Your ambition to undertake know he successful? If you should ever become a true entrepreneur, an entrepreneur winner, here’s what we tell you:
You have the tenacity
Do you have the tenacity and you’re ready to take as long as there is espoiret especially that nothing will stop you – not even the lack of immediate financing?
My testimony
Rectangle with rounded corners: When I run my business plan, I found myself in front of a group of four. Of the four, three wanted a job and financial security. They left because at first it did not flow to flow, it does not flow at all. One of the four already had a job and because it does not flow, it was not ready to abandon his job. You tell me that’s normal. But this lack of tenacity that we could take five. Five months later I discovered a young tough but largely younger. We spent three months together without earning any money and he should survive if external funding and without government subsidy. Five months later, her tenacity paid off. When we got the first big market, we are allowed to cry together.
You have the spirit of initiative
Your brain is always running and you never tarissez imagination. You are always the first to find the solution to inspire others.
My testimony
Rectangle with rounded corners: I remember and I still experience the surprises of my partner Ulrich AFFO. “Hermann, and I thought I found an idea.” I would always say “Go ahead, I’m listening.” Even when he knows he has not caught enough, I always feel ready to prepare the reply. And very often terrible, “Hermann, I realized that you had some concern, but if we added another possibility? .
You have such a sense of responsibility
You do not leak forward or backward. When is your responsibility, you know, take the brave, proud and imperturbable.
“It’s my fault.” We must say from the depths of his heart. We must assume. The undertaking can not expect someone else to take its responsibilities in its place.
You know withstand shocks and have the ability to control you.
A limit of appearing insensitive, you know cash sporting shocks. The complaint and easy emotion are not part of your personality. When you are provoked, you can keep your cool.
Testimony of a young entrepreneur
Rectangle with rounded corners: I fell very low. To a man, I think I lived harder than the journey to Golgotha. My account has fallen below zero. I went up signing a bad check. A sincere friend dragged me to the police. In my country, it is something too humiliating. But I attended his marriage two months later and the day. I even read the universal prayer during the Mass celebrating his marriage.
You can work at full capacity
If we put them in 20 hours / 24 to finish, you know how. You can work 10 to 12 hours straight without a day off.
I confess that it is feasible and widely especially when one is crazy enough. But there was a price to pay. Little sleep, little time, few friends. And your body suffers. At first you will have no choice because you’ll have to play the role of five employees.
Your health is and can keep all the roads:
Strong dissipation of physical or mental energy does not affect your health. Small health problems often do not come off during your work pace.
Typically entrepreneurs “drives” seldom fall sick. But a succession of energy dissipation without control and constantly makes you vulnerable. You must protect your health because it is that you will take.
My Testimony
Rectangle with rounded corners: Personally, I happen to come see the falls, then I reduced my pace. To my colleagues, it is as if I never get sick. Yet!
You have the enthusiasm and ability to communicate this enthusiasm:
Your faith can indeed move mountains. You believe so often that others end up being contaminated and you actually believe.
My Testimony
Rectangle with rounded corners: I have a friend marketing consultant who communicates so effectively and simply. One day I heard somebody make this comment “You’re dreaming.” If we can make this comment about you, then you have all the enthusiasm it takes to create in others point to “dream”. That’s enough.
You’re not the kind of undecided – you know how quickly your choice
Two factors are sufficient for you to take a decision and when you decide it is rare, very rare that you return back.
The undecided people are not entrepreneurs and they can not be. There is a difference between being undecided “and” take time to decide. ” In the second case you take the time to check all the criteria before deciding. In the second case, you are an embarrassment of choice because you do not know what to choose.
You know take the other, you know you sell:
Within minutes you enough to create enthusiasm and admiration for your person, your ideas, you know you produce. People are always very quickly what’s interesting to you.
You’re not going to be a crook. You do not sell when you steal. The difference here is that you know to show others what is right for them with the availability and means to serve them with love.
“They told me about you but I really did not know you were as practical as that.” The one that made this comment, knows how to sell, it’s a winning contractor in substance.
You have the good sense-judgment:
When this is not good, really not good and that good sense can be considered as such, you also consider yourself as such and especially you know take the necessary perspective.
My testimony
Rectangle with rounded corners: Sometimes I return to my opinions and it is usually when I take decisions in haste. This is called common sense can be systematized as a checklist to verify that a good process. You have specific criteria. Therefore, even the old man the wisest of the world can have a trial as sharp as you. It is the mark of good contractors. Moreover, we must not believe his decision to use checklists. Entrepreneurs winners are humble.
You have a good adaptability
When the data conditions change, you know how to readjust quickly. You always know you relocate.
You’re not racist, you are not ethnocentric. You can work with everybody and effectively. Do not believe too much in that capacity at the point of forgetting to wipe any chair you ask your buttocks. When environments, systems and new people do not handicap you remain owner of your strengths as an entrepreneur without disadvantage. It is characteristic of entrepreneurs winners.
You’re curious about your surroundings
Nothing leaves you indifferent and you always look for a “why not? In all situations, not necessarily in that which is directly related to your field of activity.
The good entrepreneur knows how to read between the lines. When he sees someone or something apparently good, he can push his curiosity. Sometimes we discover business opportunities with this state of mind.
My testimony
Rectangle with rounded corners: One day I was leaving a restaurant with a group of friends. A nice gentleman I was introduced by one of us. His handshake left me indifferent point. “Delighted Sir! I am Hermann CAKPO it seems that has already seen somewhere, “I said. He replied “it is quite possible, then I continued” But I sell software and websites and you? . Very excited, he exclaimed “it falls far, I developed myself. Today his company is my first software supplier.
You are patient enough to understand others
You know, listen, you are condoning their peccadilloes. And when they are very good faith and are willing, you’re always looking to help them recover, to move forward.
I told a friend “the good leader is one who sees the other’s weaknesses to the point where he understands their fall. Imagine this: a colleague has just committed an error and the entrepreneur (the contractor) said: “It could have been me.”
You have a sense of anticipation:
And if you were really a prophet. You always have this knack for quickly and learn to anticipate things, situations.
My testimony about a contractor Benin
Rectangle with rounded corners: I know in my country a contractor who was the first to believe they could produce books in Benin, the first to believe they could sell cars traditionally German Benin. He made his two dreams. At the time of writing his lines, I see him running in the rice fields as anything Benin can become a major producer of rice. I’m not laughing at him. It is a great entrepreneur!
You know delegate
Since your agility and intelligence are not always sufficient to allow you to do everything yourself, you know, trusting others, trusting them some of your tasks so you’re more effective in the tasks you do not delegated.
By trying to do everything we do wrong things, we lose the opportunity to let others express their potential. But do not leaving delegate. Adopt the attitude, explanation, observation and experimentation. Then let the delegate go it alone. You will need a minimum of confidence in your people.
You know, teach others.
Because those to whom you delegate authority must do things as well as you, you know how to acquire the skills they need through learning.
Do you know these people who do not “spin secrets” to their friends because they are afraid to see beyond them? They are not entrepreneurs, at least not the leaders. The leader – the entrepreneur feels joy to see people grow and overtake him through.
You do not need a whip – you’re self-motivated
You have no one to punish you if you do or not what you promised to do. Your only motivation you can move forward.
The brave entrepreneur said “It is my cross, let me wear it.” He works night and day. It rises in the morning without his mother forces him. His mother, he is! He is his own hangman penitentiary!
You can work with numbers:
You do not hate the mathematical point of not being able to take stock of your spending and your income. You can keep accurate books.
My testimony
Rectangle with rounded corners: Sometimes I receive on my table the financial statements that I can not explain. Then I use my financial scoreboard: the imbalance is often large. Then I begin to remind me of a particular expenditure or activity not taken into account by the statements I have in front of me. Confidence: If I did not know corporate finance, maybe I will not be writing these lines. Despite the goodwill and determination of my accountant, I can not count on him alone to save the company.
You know draw lessons from your mistakes
Sometimes it is better to make a mistake early on, accept, admit and begin again as soon as possible rather than committing too late. I make mistakes now that I would have liked to commit earlier. I managed most things now. Indeed it is a chance to commit mistakes early to draw lessons early. You avoid from this point the uninitiated mistakes because you’ve already committed your mistakes and have drawn lessons.
You are a great hard worker.
This is not necessarily constant debauchery and endless energy. You know, spend time at your job because you really like. And you recognize that quality.
My testimony
Rectangle with rounded corners: My friend Ulrich is a great hard worker. Sometimes I fear for his future home because when one goes as far as him in the job you lose heart. But I confess that I am always difficult to snatch two hours of his weekends. Even the big boxing match is made of sequences of rounds.
What you need to do:
I know how important it is for you to become a great entrepreneur. I will not say that the entrepreneurial qualities described above are compulsory but there are some who are critical, very critical. Then:
* Make a point
* Take a blank sheet
* Draw a table with six columns
* In the first line of the first column, enter “Quality”
* Enter the numbers from 1 to 5 in the following lines of columns
* From the second line of the first column enter successively the qualities necessary to become a great entrepreneur.
* Give you a note by selecting cases from 1 to 5
* At the end, make a point – if you have at least 60 out of 100, if you’re not that far.
* Work to improve your weaknesses, and repeat the exercise three to six months later
