Entrepreneurs are Made, Not Born

Do you ever wonder why some people seem to march to their own drum and make their own paths, while the majority of the population is led? What is the difference between the Warren Buffetts, the Donald Trumps, the Bill Gates, the Steve Jobs of the world and the average citizen? Is there something innately different about them?

The difference between Leaders and Followers is actually not a genetic trait or set of traits. It is not even guaranteed any more with formal education and degrees. It is a personal decision and set of actions.

Leaders dream big dreams and don't let anyone crush them. They have learned to get past all the doubting and fears that become deeply ingrained in the minds of the masses.

Leaders set specific goals - short term, medium term, and long term - and then persist to reach them in an unstoppable manner. These goals become so tangible that they naturally attract the events and situations that drive them closer to those goals. This works in the opposite manner for fear-driven motivation.

Not only do Leaders have clear goals that propel them down the path to achieving them, they are able to define the path and do anything they must to continue down it. They are open to receiving the blessings that come their way every day.

Leaders identify and associate with like-minded individuals and groups. If you have always been a follower and want to become a leader, the best thing you can do for yourself is to surround yourself with others who have a consciousness of prosperity.

You must consciously strive to keep positive thoughts flowing in your mind. You must realize that the follower has been duped into believing in the 'employee mindset', which tells you that you are worth much less than you are. Realize this truth, and the truth will set you free!

"There is a powerful driving force inside every human being that, once unleashed,can make any vision, dream, or desire a reality." Anthony Robbins

CEOs and Email - Slaves? - I wonder if the emails they are responding to are filtered thru their assistants first 'cos they seem to spend a lot of their off hours responding to them.
