The Secret To Being An Effective Entrepreneur

Posted on June 16, 2022 by Ray Cherry, One of Thousands of Entrepreneurship Coaches on Noomii.

Every successful entrepreneur knows how hard it is to build a business. What we come to discover is that it’s the best personal development tool ever!

Every weak spot will slowly, but surely creep into how you make decisions, how you serve your customers, what boundaries you put in place to protect your energy, how you handle challenging clients, and how you lead.

Part of being an entrepreneur requires you to stick to your vision so fiercely that most people will think you’re crazy. Actually, people will start to think all kinds of things about you. There are many days you want to hide. Yet, you know that being able to share your particular gifts is the kind of freedom that brings meaning to life.

As if dropping off your old baggage & not feeling trapped by other people’s opinions wasn’t enough inner work… some research shows that about 47% of our waking hours are spent thinking about what isn’t going on right now. We are thinking about the past or the future almost half of the time (usually in a negative way)! That’s a lot of valuable headspace.

So, between cleaning up your personal business quickly, and keeping your head in the game… your new job as a business owner is the relentless pursuit of personal growth.

After being an entrepreneur for over 10 years… I know for sure is that most entrepreneurs have their best breakthroughs when they breakdown.

It takes every speck of your soul to muster up the courage required to pave a new path forward. There are so many reasons why the vast majority of businesses fail. I believe that knowing, owning, and even loving your personal business is the most important asset for entrepreneurship. We all win when you show up.
