40 Signs You Have What It Takes To Be An Entrepreneur

There are two types of  people in the world.

Entrepreneurs and everyone else.

Entrepreneurs are folks who create things. Entrepreneurs are folks who live on their own terms. Entrepreneurs are a special group of people who have a passion for solving a certain problem and then create something that fixes it. You might have what it takes to be an entrepreneur but never really knew if it was a possibility.

You may have had thoughts about starting your own business but never quite made the leap from the 9 to 5 into entrepreneurship. You may have thought of various side hustle ideas but never brought them to life. You may have second guessed whether or not you had what it takes when in reality, you had all the right signs. In this post, I’m going to share with you the 40 signs that you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur. If you can connect with one, you might have what it takes.

If you connect with forty, you definitely have what it takes.

Either way, we’re going to talk about some of the things that differentiate entrepreneurs from everyone else. Let’s dive in…

1. You’re comfortable in isolation. 

Entrepreneurship requires nights alone doing things that no one else can do. It requires moments alone and moments where you can motivate yourself without any assistance.

2. You can dream big.

Entrepreneurs can think big picture. Entrepreneurs can see what the future holds before it takes shape.

3. You tackle the small stuff. 

Entrepreneurs know how to sweat the small stuff. Entrepreneurs embrace the idea of doing the little things so they can achieve the big things.

4. You wake up hungry. 

Entrepreneurs wake up with an itch to create value, build things and achieve their goals.

5. You read lots.

The more you learn, the more you earn. If you’re going to be a successful entrepreneur, you need to make a commitment to reading lots.

6. You value education over entertainment. 

Whether we’re talking about TV or Podcasts, entrepreneurs are more likely to consume content that helps them grow than content that makes them laugh. Entrepreneurs place value on learning about the world around them and gaining insight around how they can be a better and more efficient entrepreneur.

7. You don’t mind being uncomfortable.

Entrepreneurs are people who know that you’re going to have to make tough choices and go through tough situations. Entrepreneurs understand that there is a direct relationship between uncomfortable moments and success. The more uncomfortable situations you face, the more likely you’ll find situations that result in greatness.
