If you want to run your own business someday, and dream of being an independent and successful entrepreneur, there are certain predictors for success that can give you an edge over the competition. The reason that the majority of people do not make the transition from employee to employer is because they get too caught up in the idea of the business to follow through with any action. It is one thing to talk a big game about a new and brilliant business idea that is so cutting edge it will change the very fabric of the market. While these claims can be entertaining and a great ego boost, remember that in business, talk is cheap, and it is the walk that gets everything done. Nobody cares about what you could do or might do. They only care about what you actually do.
If you want to be a successful businessperson and entrepreneur, then simply do it. Take action. Talking about something or planning it out never gets anything done. While you should never shy away from talking about your business, actions speak much louder than words. If you want people to respect you and your ideas, create them and let people see them in action for themselves. Coming up with a great idea isn’t enough to be a businessman, you have to take real and practical actions in order to achieve your goals and become independent. Hard work is the road to financial freedom.
