Entrepreneurs are some of the most passionate and extremely driven people, who work hard towards achieving their goals and put a lot of effort into overcoming all obstacles along their way. They are driven by motivation and ambition, by a vision and mission to create something that has never been seen before, something that will change the world as we know it and will be of a great value to the customers. Achieving greater results for your startup demands exclusive, consistent high performance on everyday basis, which can be very exciting yet very exhausting and stressful.
Being an entrepreneur is not an easy life path to choose. In times you will feel lonely, like nobody else can understand what you are going through. In times when everything seems like it is going to the wrong direction and the problems keep coming your way one after another, one bigger than the previous, it is difficult to pick yourself up and keep going. These are the times to look for motivation and by learning from the people, who have gone through exactly what you are going through, you are able to get a new perspective on your current situation.
Learning from successful entrepreneurs by studying their stories and entrepreneurial approaches can be very enriching experience, yet sometimes the lessons that we learn can be a bit misleading. Trying to copy the work styles of successful people doesn’t necessarily mean that we will be successful as well. The things that work for some people may not work as well for us. The key is to find the entrepreneurial style that suits you the best and to embrace it. Create your own rules and you will be much more satisfied and happy with the way you experience your entrepreneurial journey.
Being passionate about what you do is a great motivator to perform on the top of your abilities, but if the ambition gets out of hand, the situation can quickly get out of hand. By obsessing over every very little detail and getting stressed to unhealthy levels, the entrepreneurs are slowly killing themselves. To help us understand better the effects of constant stress over the amount of work entrepreneurs put in their ventures, during his TEDxMileHigh Talk Phil Drolet gives us one interesting perspective on entrepreneurial productivity that will help all entrepreneurs to achieve their goals without to sacrifice their health, personal relationships and own well-being.
