G10: 5 Must Have Traits For Entrepreneurs

GLASGOW, UK, June 2014 – Anyone can start a business, regardless of his or her age however if you meet someone who says they want to and ask them what they have done to get a step closer to their goal, the most common answer is “nothing”.

Most entrepreneurs share these are five common characteristics:

1. Passion. A company founder is often driven by the quest for deeper purpose beyond the sheer mechanics of operating a business. If you have passion for your company, this will drive you to turn your desire for success into a reality. Without that missing spark, you'll lack the necessary motivation to put in all the early mornings and late nights to get your business off the ground.

2. Perseverance. Entrepreneurs need to be able to deal with obstacles. A business does not get built overnight, and turning your idea into a reality will take time. You'll have to become accustomed to people saying no to you. What makes entrepreneurs great is having the perseverance to grow regardless of how many times they are shut down.

3. Resourcefulness. A vital ability for an entrepreneur is knowing how to make the most of what you have. Your assets as an entrepreneur will be limited, so use them to the fullest. Tapping into a network is key.

4. Open-Mindedness. As an entrepreneur, you may think you've zeroed in on a business plan, but you'll need to learn to take in the opinions of others. Then if it appears that your plan won’t work, then adjust.

5. Sponge-like nature. Being an entrepreneur involves a learning process. If you’re not willing to learn, think about turning around. You need to be able to soak in everything and anything you can, just like a sponge. The more you learn the better.

Entrepreneurship is much more than a 9-to-5 job. If you have an idea you'd like to turn into a reality, go for it. You'll never know the outcome if you don't try.
