The people who follow it are by necessity a special breed. What is necessary for the person who travels this way is great imagination, fortitude, and hardness of purpose” Reading it I sometimes feel it might be a little presumptuous or arrogant of them. But deep down I believe them. Collins, Moore & Unwalla stated

Reading it I sometimes feel it might be a little presumptuous or arrogant of them.

But deep down I believe them.

I'm far from classifying myself as an established entrepreneur, but it is in the works..lol When you're getting close to a deal, and it falls through, you have to stand back and ask yourself 3 very important questions. 1. What worked? "Pat yourself on the back, congradulate yourself, be posative." 2. What didn't work? "Don't beat yourself up over it, learn from it." 3. and lastly, What are you gonna try different next time? Most importantly, never give up! "Remember, every no is one step closer to a yes", it just means your doing the deal. My 2 cents, Chris Hi Lauren, seems like you’ve really got your hands full, but what entrepreneur doesn’t? I’m far from classifying myself as an established entrepreneur, but it is in the works..lol When you’re getting close to a deal, and it falls through, you have to stand back and ask yourself 3 very important questions.

1. What worked? “Pat yourself on the back, congradulate yourself, be posative.”
2. What didn’t work? “Don’t beat yourself up over it, learn from it.”
3. and lastly, What are you gonna try different next time?

Most importantly, never give up! “Remember, every no is one step closer to a yes”, it just means your doing the deal.

My 2 cents,
Chris

The reality is that most business owners struggle like you to run their business and carry full-time jobs. This is really the reason why I started my business--Isaac Business Services. I was once in your shoes and now I partner with entrepreneurs who have full-time jobs so that I can do the work for them. Please visit my website and leave a comment card on my website or blog link. I am also working on opening an office in Florida this year and will be looking for business-major interns. I think your service is very valuable. Lauren:

But, then you hit a stride and somehow end up on the other side. Keep the head up and enjoy the journey.

I think when an outsider looks in, building a successful a business doesn't seem too hard; but when you're stuck in the daily grind and drudgery of your business, where you're weighing a thousand variables, running a business gets exponentially harder. Talk is simple, but actually executing it is -- I think -- a million times harder. Great read, Lauren.

Talk is simple, but actually executing it is — I think — a million times harder.
