You Don't Have to Be Perfect to Be A Serious Entrepreneur

'There is little to fear but fear itself,' as the chestnut goes, but what if you are actually terrified not of failing but of succeeding in changing into a serious entrepreneur? Entering into any kind of an establishment has its own sets of risks and rewards, though a lot of people would never admit that making it is a risk that they are not prepared to take. Success does not only mean fortune and celebrity ; it also carries with it responsibility and pressure to be consistent.

Nobody is Perfect

There are folk who argue that they want perfection before success, and that sounds too much like a reason to be convincing, especially if they do not set the criteria for what perfection means, nor do they set a cutoff point to realize it. A lot of top earning marketers have attained their goals without this'perfection', and claiming moral ascendancy over them will not put food on your table.

Everyone will have their good days and bad days, and it is time to tell yourself that it's fine to make mistakes. If a customer or buyer makes reasonable complaints, make amends and correct it. Take note of their feedback, and apply it to your later projects. That's one additional step to'perfection' that you could not make if you hadn't put your product out there in the first place.

Time to Move On

Of course it's part and parcel of being a serious entrepreneur to learn as much as you can about your craft and to develop your skill, but if everyone spent all their time studying to be something, there'll be nobody left to do the real work. Experience is also the best teacher ; how will you know if your product is up to standards, if you don't try it out in the market?

The reality is, educational study is a comfort zone that some folk do not wish to move out from. You do not want to stop improving once your product hits the market. In fact, that's's the simplest way to see what improvements you want to make.

A serious entrepreneur should, therefore , be results-oriented : a customer or customer would be happier to see a project that's 80% ok, than not see an one hundred pc perfect one.

It has been Done Before

How many products have you seen on the market that has been around for some time and will all of a sudden have advertisements that claims'NEW AND IMPROVED'? Businesses that work are prepared to take the risk of small successes to get their feet wet and work their way up the market. At the end of the day, the only way to become a serious entrepreneur is to do something. Remember that sloppy success beats perfect mediocrity.
