business success the entrepreneur often copes by
focusing on the end result and not the process of getting
there.

profits, this is often secondary to the drive toward
personal success.
Shantilal Hajeri 14
15. 8.3 Qualities of an Entrepreneur.

have the profit margin in sight and know that their

to succeed and expand their business. They see the
bigger picture and are often very ambitious.

have a healthy opinion of themselves and often have a
strong and assertive personality. They are focused and
determined to achieve their goals and believe completely
in their ability to achieve them. Their self optimism can
often been seen by others as flamboyance or arrogance
but entrepreneurs are just too focused to spend too
much time thinking about un-constructive criticism.

entrepreneurs have a passionate desire to do things
better and to improve their products or service. They are
constantly looking for ways to improve. They're creative,
innovative and resourceful.

17. 8.3 Qualities of an Entrepreneur.
⢠Openness to Change: If something is not working for
them they simply change. Entrepreneurs know the

only way to being number one is to evolve and change
with the times. They're up to date with the latest
technology or service techniques and are always ready
to change if they see a new opportunity arise.
⢠Competitive by Nature: Successful entrepreneurs
thrive on competition. The only way to reach their goals
and live up to their self imposed high standards is to
compete with other successful businesses.

⢠Highly Motivated and Energetic: Entrepreneurs are always
on the move, full of energy and highly motivated. They are
driven to succeed and have an abundance of self motivation.
The high standards and ambition of many entrepreneurs
demand that they have to be motivated!
⢠Accepting of Constructive Criticism and Rejection:
Innovative entrepreneurs are often at the forefront of their
industry so they hear the words "it can't be done" quite a bit.
They readjust their path if the criticism is constructive and
useful to their overall plan, otherwise they will simply
disregard the comments as pessimism. Also, the best
entrepreneurs know that rejection and obstacles are a part of
any leading business and they deal with them appropriately.
