Entrepreneur Vs Opportunity Seeker




There's definitely an interesting relationship between an entrepreneur and an opportunity seeker.

The Opportunity Seeker:

The opp seeker is one who gets involved with a business because of all the hype and money they truly thought they could earn without necessarily doing much to earn it.

They're not providing value to someone else, they're not entrenching themselves with knowledge and education. 

They saw the white board and the fancy flip chart of how much money they could earn by getting 2 who get 2, etc or some easy "push button" sales letter online where they could rake in millions IF they would "just" spend $20 bucks to "buy my stuff".

They got involved thinking they'd magically get rich even though they have no idea of how to build a business or marketing in general.

The Entrepreneur:

The entrepreneur understands business...they understand marketing and seek understanding and knowledge constantly.

They're constantly learning and studying.

They're seeking mentors to study and learn from.  They understand that applied knowledge will ultimately create success.

They're providing value to others.

They're problem solvers.

They understand that the most successful businesses are built with a firm foundation on sound marketing principals. 

They're not seeking a get rich quick scheme - and they understand businesses aren't build by "chasing" others.

At the end of the day, the entrepreneur will win and they understand this.  

They're the ones who will create wealth...not overnight, but it will take place.  It's only a matter of time.


The entrepreneur has an entirely different mindset.  They understand that they simply have a manufacturer of products/services that they've chosen to market. 

They understand that if the manufacturer went out of business tomorrow...they can go anywhere they want and rock the house. 

BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.

So...

Are you an opportunity seeker or an entrepreneur?

Never stop learning.  Never stop studying.  

Find a mentor...study him/her and follow that person as though you're a shadow.  It will reward you kindly throughout your business journeys. 



I'm committed to your success

He sat under a tree writing his will, but instead, he wrote what he would have accomplished with his life. He realized there was much more that ...

Healthy Eating For Entrepreneurs

When we think about the sacrifices entrepreneurs make to be successful, many of us think about time, sleep, and health.  How often do we hear stories of people downing six energy drinks every night while they build their product?  Then when you ask them why they don't exercise or eat well, the typical answer is that they don't have time.  This is an excuse that leads to health problems down the road.  This is proven by the fact that 69 percent of people in the U.S. are considered overweight or obese. Chef Jason Roberts has made it his mission to stop the unhealthy eating problem that is damaging so many lives. In his book  Good Food--Fast! ,  Jason offers recipes for healthy, gluten-free meals that busy people can still cook.  I had a chance to talk with Jason about his advice on eating well, and the effects health has on being a great entrepreneur.  Here are some of my takeaways from our conversation: 1....
