It is not to late for a career revelation - professional to successful entrepreneur.
In today's economic environment, changing careers might seem like an
unstable decision. Truthfully, you have to examine if you are cut out
for a transition, and if you have the mindset it takes to succeed. A
job is not necessarily stable anymore. YOU have to be the stability in
your economic future.
I came from the corporate world, having
worked at all levels that lead into a management-director level career.
I will tell you that your greatest hurdle with a career shift from
employee to business owner is to spend time on things that will pay
you.
Just because you show up at your business does not mean
you will get paid. As a business owner, your time is best served by
doing marketing 80% of the time. It is easy if you know how.
The
first step to see if you are cut out for a career change. You want to
look at what you want out of life. Ask yourself these questions.
- Do you see yourself doing this job over the next twenty years?
- Do you feel you are getting paid what you are worth?
- Do you get to spend time with the people who matter the most?
- Do you have time freedom to do things you really want?
- Do you surround yourself with people that bring you up or are they people who drag you down?
- If money were not a problem, how would you spend your day?
The
second step is to examine your answers. If you aren't happy about the
answers, and don't have a smile about your future, you owe it to
yourself to consider other options.
The third step is to
examine what it takes to make a career change, empower you to own your
own business and work from home living the dream lifestyle you have
planned.
- You will need to identify opportunities that will
develop you as a successful entrepreneur. 95% of all new businesses
fail, you want to avoid those mistakes, and leverage the success of
others.
- You will need to apply yourself to taking actions daily,
and take 3-6 months learning new information, and new skills that will
shift your mindset from employee to successful entrepreneur.
- You
will need an education platform that will teach you how to leverage the
largest market in the world, the internet. Leveraging the internet is
critical for any business today. It is THE vehicle for all successful
business owners. You will learn how to market online and bring
customers to you, and have a integrated sales system that works for you
24/7.
The fourth step is to commit to your decisions, and
invest the time, money, and passion into your new venture. This step is
critical to your success. Many people are skeptical whether they can
become a successful entrepreneur. You have to decide you will, and do
what it takes.
Look at those around you, most would rather
watch TV than invest time into being a successful entrepreneur. You
have to decide what kind of person do you want to be.
Most
people will not consistently invest the time it takes to learn a new
skill set even if it will allow them to write their paycheck for life.
Are you different?
Most people will also hoard their money in
fear of losing it to the wrong decision. Any business owner will tell
you that you have to invest, if it is a worthy profitable business.
It
is up to you to do your due diligence to find a successful business
model that will give you up to 80% profits, with a proven track record.
Not all businesses, and business models are created equal. You
want to find a business that will teach you, support you, and give you
high profits.
If freedom and large incomes is what you desire,
you will want a business model that leverages the internet with an
integrated sales system. You will be able to work from anywhere in the
world, and have it work for you while you are doing other things.
Your
passion and desire will drive your constant pursuit of success. If you
combine your passion with mindset that you will be successful, and do
what it takes, you will have unlimited success. Being an entrepreneur
is not easy, it takes effort. If it were easy, everyone would do it.
I
have been a successful corporate executive, and a successful business
owner. I have also had great business failures in the past. If I were
to simplify my mistakes to two elements for you to avoid it would be
these two things.
1. Believe you will succeed without ANY doubt.
2.
Leverage a system and the success of others so you don't have to learn
from scratch. This one tip will make you successful much more quickly
than on your own.
In the beginning, it is wise to build your
empire part-time while you are still working. But eventually, you will
want to burn the bridges, and go for it. If you use a successful
business model, you will fire your boss before you know it.
Once you are an entrepreneur, you will never be able to go back to trading time for money.

Re: Kevin's Case Study #14 - When to quit being an entrepreneur?
- I'm piggy backing on your question about when to become an entrepreneur and saying the time to quit being an entrepreneur is when you lose the passion for what you are doing. Once you lose your passion, you lose the momentum you need to be a successful entrepreneur, and if you aren't being successful there is no reason to keep doing it. In fact, you probably better get off your but and go find a JOB if that's the case. There are some really fun ones out there. Like I've posted elsewhere on this forum, read the FISH books. They will teach you to have fun no matter what your job (unless your job is just making you feel physical pain.....in that case it's hard to have fun no matter what you try.)

2006
Jacket:
Millions of educated, professional women are quitting their jobs to stay home and raise their children. That would never be you, right? You worked hard for your degree and even harder to get to this point in your career. Quitting now, even for a few years, would kill your career, right?
That's what Monica Samuels thought when she found out she was pregnant...
Over 60 percent of professional women who leave work to raise children want to get back into the workforce someday. If you even think you might want to go back to work, be it in one year or twenty, you need to lay the groundwork now for a successful reentry or your options will be limited.

Setting a Budget For Professional Development
- Hi Louis - I think a big challenge is that many entrepreneurs don't set a budget for professional development. It's usually something companies will look at as they hire people and use as a staff retention & development tool but it's not usually the case that you'll find an entrepreneur sets a professional development budget for themselves.
Re: You don't need a degree to be an Entrepreneur
- True true, you don't ned to have a degree to be an entrepreneur. However, a degree nowadays is somewhat necessary to get employed or hired in top companies. Yes, Bill Gates dodn't graduate from college, but this doesn't necessarily mean that you have to stop learning. If you want to be an entrepreneur, a very successful one, you should try to learn something new everyday. Learn from your mistakes and experiences.
