Business Opportunities - Personal Qualities for Success
The are two sides to business success. There is the business itself and there is the person(s) behind the business. Both of these sides need to have certain qualities if the two sides are to come together to form a succesful whole. This article is about the necessary qualities that the person(s) behind the business must have to stand a chance of success in any business opportunity.
Vision
You must know what you want from the business and where you want the business to go. You must have a great imagination and be able to visualise where you want the business to be in 6 weeks, 6 months and 6 years ahead.
Creativity
You must have or be willing to develop a creative part in you. Just like the person hundreds of years ago who took some wood and shaped it into a wheel. You must be able to take something ordinary or that exists already and create something new and different from it.
Persistence
Over and over again, if there is one personal attribute that makes the successful
business person succeed it is persistence. When others call it a day, or give up completely it is persistence that makes a difference between a winner and an also ran.
Determination
This is about focussing on a goal or goals and continually going after that goal no matter what might get in the way.
Passion
You need to love what you are doing. If you hate it or find it boring you will lose heart quickly and cut corners. Do what you love to do and the passion will be there... naturally.
There are other personal qualities that can come into the equation. Some might say luck but actually we can make our own luck.
There is a very useful tool at Success CD if you need extra help with igniting the qualities of vision, passion, creativity, persistence and determination in you.
