It’s no secret, the failure rate of a Home Based Business is SKY HIGH! Yet thousands everyday continue to pursue their dreams and forge ahead despite the gloom looking numbers. What separates the true entrepreneurs and home business professionals from the here today gone tomorrow wanna be entrepreneurs?

I believe there are 3 main differences between TRUE entrepreneurs and wanna-be’s.

1. True Entrepreneurs have long term Vision
I got in this industry because of the freedom that it brings. True time freedom & financial freedom will not be accomplished in a quick fast run for money. Think of the tortoise and the hare. The hare jumped out of the gates fast, yet lost the race due to the lack of focus and vision. The tortoise WON the race - even though the hare had the ability to win. Why is that? The tortoise was committed to his vision, no matter how long it took him to reach the finish line.

2. True Entrepreneurs have successful habits
One of my early coaches and mentors Jeffrey Combs taught me that the separation of success and failure is dependent upon your daily habits. Again referring to the tortoise and the hare, the tortoise had a habit of moving forward. He new that each step he took forward would get him closer to his destination. He may have wanted to stop and take a break like the hare - but he kept moving forward.

3. True Entrepreneurs have a high tolerance for adversity
I don’t know of any successful entrepreneur who hasn’t overcome an obstacle or faced
extreme adversity. The Home Business industry is no different. Often times the direct sales and network marketing industry is perceived as a Get Rich Quick solution. You can “get rich quick”, but the reality is that most do not have the skill sets to produce a 6 or 7 figure income right away. And that’s why successful people make it. We’ve taken the time to develop skills, build relationships, and find ways to succeed - even when times were tough.

I believe that when true entrepreneurs discover their passion and play to win - it’s just a matter of timing when they will win their race of “success”.
