There’s No Luck In Entrepreneurship

There’s No Luck In Entrepreneurship No luck in entrepreneurship … well maybe just a little bit … But seriously, success as an entrepreneur is more about doing the things you need to do to create it doing the work when nobody’s looking. It’s about the staying up late, the getting up early. It’s about all of the missed opportunities, the failures, the struggles, the challenges, the things that happen when absolutely nobody’s around, and the way that you’ve got to pick yourself up and dust yourself off and keep going when nobody’s looking

We love this video from our good friend, fellow entrepreneur and mentor David Sharpe

There’s No Luck In Entrepreneurship Video

As Dave says, a lot of people will see you out doing things like he’s doing in the video, going out to do some offshore fishing with his daughter

Some of the things people see us doing like riding horses along the beach in the sunset in Costa Rica, learning to surf, swimming with dolphins … these are all things that have come as a result of us building our online business, becoming online entrepreneurs and we think that what Dave says totally sums it up :-

“…. as an entrepreneur, a lot of times people are going to see you doing things, they’re going to see you out having fun, enjoying your life, spending time with your kids, making money, see you on stage, driving nice cars, living in nice homes, and they’re going to say, “Wow, what a lucky guy. What a lucky girl. Man, they really caught a break. Wow, must be nice.” But the truth is … and you know the truth and I know the truth … that there is no luck involved in this process. That this process is about doing the work when nobody’s looking. It’s about the staying up late, the getting up early. It’s about all of the missed opportunities, the failures, the struggles, the challenges, the things that happen when absolutely nobody’s around, and the way that you’ve got to pick yourself up and dust yourself off and keep going when nobody’s looking…

When nobody’s there to congratulate you or thank you or give you a hug, or when there’s nobody there to give you a standing ovation, you’ve got to find the motivation to keep going. If you can find that motivation to keep going, and if you can find the ability to pick yourself up and dust yourself and persevere and continue to push through the challenges that all of us face, whether we’re just starting our business or whether we’re taking it from seven to eight or eight to nine figures, then you too will be able to be at peace when you’re out driving that Range Rover, that Rolls Royce or that Bentley, or living in that five or ten thousand square foot home …”

So we’ll leave you with that thought that as entrepreneurs we know what it takes to reap the rewards of a successful business and if you have the right mindset, the right coaching and training, the right system and the right people to work with you can achieve the success you want as an entrepreneur:-)
