7 Life Lessons From My Entrepreneurial Journey

Article Category: Advice

Author Name: John McLauchlan

My Entrepreneurial Journey ... I was always the one at school with the huge dreams, huge concepts and exactly no idea exactly what I wished to do as a career. Perhaps that's the common journey of any effective business owner, all I understand is that my entrepreneurial journey has actually taught me a great many life lessons (up until now).

This article is everything about what I've discovered along the method in reality 7 life lessons that will serve you well on your entrepreneurial journey.

Entrepreneurial Journey Lesson # 1 Be Goal Orientated

At 15 years of ages, I wished to be a millionaire and a karate instructor, my school professions instructor in her unlimited knowledge laughed at my concept of stepping far from the 9-5, 45 year plan, the one that she had bought, and instead suggested I must take my go out of the clouds and consider a career in the Police Force.

I had actually offered some believed to the Police during those 'Serious discussions' with mum and dad, however I was still unsure what I desired to do. I had no genuine fixed goal to aim for, and without an objective, you end up getting swept together with the next wind working you don't like, because getting a task was what you did back in the 1980's. Not so much an Entrepreneurial Journey, more a road to a dead-end task.

In swift contrast to this was when I began home developing, my objectives were drawn up, I had actually established a plan of action. The plan was to work 16 hours a day. Half in the day job as a law enforcement officer (I hope you made the link here ...) and half building and building developing.

We frequently talk about developing your reason which in turn establishes your focus for constructing your business. My reason was a strong one, and 18 months later on I had actually made numerous 6 figures ...

Lesson # 2 Work A Plan

Having a plan to work to, or plugging into a proven system is vital to be successful.

Too many people starting their own entrepreneurial journey attempt to re-invent the wheel.

It is far more lucrative to make use of existing markets, utilize proven systems instead of attempting to make your very own from scratch but numerous people attempt and fail. It's a brave relocation stepping out and constructing your own brand name to an untapped and untried market, but in almost every case of failure, people undervalue the amount of time, resources and energy it takes to benefit from creating your own course into untapped markets.

Don't get me incorrect the pay-offs from such strong moves can be huge, take James Dyson for instance.

One life lesson I discovered is to take a trip along the well-trodden path, and leverage proven systems that will provide you the success you desire. As soon as you end up being extremely successful and wish to invest something into your humanitarian endeavours then that's fine, but don't build your business by doing this.

Lesson # 3 Leverage & Invest

The first 12 months of my building establishing career I was close to burning out. Working 16 hours a day doing everything myself, it was tiring but nothing comes easy. After my first few developments had offered, I had the money to work with people in, but it wasn't simply other people's time I was working with, it was other individuals's experience, hiring people who were better at plastering than me, better at bricklaying than me. Alowing me to work out more offers and make more money. Working less and making more money in the process.

To be successful as an online entrepreneur, you can refrain from doing everything by yourself. Naturally you have to initially, however it's important to take advantage of other individuals's time and abilities to move forwards.

As well as purchasing people you need to buy yourself. Every effective entrepreneur has actually invested in education and knowing. The statement 'knowledge is power' is never so prevalent than with self-education.

Official education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
-- Jim Rohn

If you're reading this right now, then you're investing your time to find out more. The truth is that many individuals would rather purchase a big flat screen TV to watch nonsense, rather than invest in a training program that can establish a 6, 7 and 8 figure business.

Personally I have actually invested numerous thousands of dollars into my business education, and I have no strategies to change that. Success truly is the 'entrepreneurial journey' when it pertains to education as it's ever-moving and broadening.

Lesson # 4 Embrace Change and Technology

You may keep in mind the brand name Woolworth. A service that established in 1924, who despite it's durability, failed to appropriately embrace the Internet as a trading platform and folded in light of aggressive online competition with little or no overheads.

Many individuals beware of change and brand-new innovation, but if you cannot embrace it then you will have a slow and agonizing path to failure.

The Internet changes rapidly, marketing methods change, and whether you like it or not, you have to embrace change and adjust to them.

Lesson # 5 Focus On Helping Others To Succeed

entrepreneurial journey helping othersZig Ziglar spokened "You will get all you desire in life if you help enough people get what they desire in life"

If your focus is to genuinely assist other individuals reach their goals in life then you will have a life of abundance. Some people call it The Law of Attraction, others cause and result.

My recommendations with this point is help people who desire to do something about it, not those wanting a free ride, due to the fact that while there is great joy and complete satisfaction is helping people establish a wealth and flexibility way of life, comparable happiness can be had by punching free loaders and time wasters in the face.

Do not suffer fools, but go out of your method to assist your next success story on their entrepreneurial journey.

Lesson # 6-- Grow A Thick Skin

The journey of any effective business owner is constantly satisfied by the nay sayers. The people who attempt to tell you your business won't work, or spoken-- "That's currently been attempted, that market is filled, you can't contend because market" and all the other potentially devastating rubbish.

The reason people say things like this is either they have an authentic concern for you (household) or they like to see you get ahead, however not ahead of them (insert adjective of choice).

The actual process of growing a thicker skin is building self-confidence, self belief and self-worth into your very own skills and capabilities that you apply into your business. Let me inform you that there is nothing more enlightening and empowering than showing your vulnerabilities and not giving a hoot about people's viewpoints or exactly what they need to spoken.

Every Entrepreneur on their entrepreneurial journey, has actually suffered with loss, being accountable for making mistakes and bad decisions. This experience establishes your resolve, your nerve and into the 4% income bracket.

If lesson # 5 does not work, attempt lesson # 5a-- Grow A Thicker Skin.

Lesson # 7-- Balance, Timing, Effort & Spirit

This last lesson I have actually kept till completion, it's an idea I adopted into my life given that I was 12 years of ages when I started Karate back in 1983. The concept is translated physically, spiritually and metaphorically.

Balance

Balance is stability, a state of equal step. In business sense balance can be the work life balance, the effort and reward balance, or comprehending the 80 20 rule where 80% of your outcomes originate from 20% of the effort.

Timing

If we get our timing wrong, our challenger will see a weak point and attack. Timing in business is important, when is the very best time to post on social media, when do you launch a brand-new post for the biggest impact, when do you launch your product to the marketplace. Timing is vital.

Effort

Take massive action, due to the fact that getting any business going takes big effort, I've done this a variety of times in my entrepreneurial journey, and possible reward minus the effort equates to absolutely nothing.

Be under no impression, that whatever business you start, takes a big effort to get it going. But if you construct the foundations right in the first place your business will experience the ripple result, with those ripples broadening and becoming waves.

Spirit

Spirit is something that has actually been rejected of people. Schools not teach pupils to 'dig in' and bring on to experience the value of accomplishment. Instead they instruct people to stop if they feel pain, to live inside their convenience zone, to avoid dispute at all costs, and to seek resolution whether dispute or otherwise by passing responsibility onto 3rd individuals.

There's not surprising that kid psychology and the counselling market has actually seen a dramatic increase when these concepts are applied into the real world.

Spirit is pressing yourself outside your convenience zone and the enjoyment of pressing your boundaries to a degree where your initial worries are a feather bed ...

Nature enjoys guts. You make the commitment by getting rid of impossible challenges. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is exactly what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the Shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the Abyss and finding it's a Feather bed.

-- Terence McKenna

Your Entrepreneurial Journey

Now it's time for you to make it take place, due to the fact that anywhere you are right now-- you can always accomplish more. Remember that if you put your mind to it, anything is achievable & I hope my experiences of my own entrepreneurial journey will help you on yours.

My last lesson is never listen so somebody who spokens you should not do something. Here is among my original and extremely successful black belt students recieving her 2nd dan, due to the fact that I declined to pay attention to my careers teacher, and ended up being that Karate Instructor ...
