Three Personality Traits all Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners Must Develop

[@trogers35]

I'm 61 years old, been in business, Corporate, employee, THIS GUY IS GOOD! Glad I found this

[@KF1]

Summary time! 3 characteristics common to successful entrepreneurs: 1. Cynical. Call it realistic. Real-world. Able to assess problems and opportunities. 2. Focused. Present and paying attention. Staying on the ball and heading off problems early on. 3. Ruthless. Not vicious, but in a tenacious way. Getting it moving and dealing with the mess after, if any. Super-summary: 1. Have no illusions 2. Stay sharp 3. Eye of the tiger

Hello, How are you doing. I'm Abdulai Jalloh, doing development and economics, reading entrepreneur also. I have an assignment which, I will want you to help discuss and send it for me,on my email [e-mail] The question is. An entrepreneur Born or made? Discuss not less than 10,pages.

[@KF1]

@@abdulahjalloh8743 Made, sir. I was a lazy kid. Spoiled. It was a rapid adjustment to start my own business. Now I am happy to work because I'm not grinding for someone else's machine. My mistakes are when I get desperate, so I try for diligence instead. With a pen and paper I write "One thing I'm doing for my business today is..."

[@mnyorej]

Glad you mentioned fear. I have been seeing it as a weakness. I opened up a company about ten months ago, thanks to Allah it is picking up. The biggest problem that I've had is fear. In fact I fear more than when I was employed years back. This fear has increased my ability to read several books, and listen to several audios just to be sure I understand everything people talked about as far as business is concerned. See, fear has added me an advantage of reading more than I used to.

[@brianvent]

This should have 30M views... the fact that it hasn't is an opportunity.

[@DeepaMaisuria]

This is a motivating video for anyone thinking about starting a business but isn't sure. I've worked with hundreds of clients and I can tell you that there isn't an "ideal mold" for a successful entrepreneur - introvert/extrovert/intellectual/blue collar - doesn't matter. The number #1 trait that all entrepreneurs have is the ability to Execute their idea and not allow their fears stop them. I suppose that would fall under the third trait in this video = "Audacity"!

[@natemotivation8523]

Deepa Maisuria well said 😁

[@veronicahonicka2083]

Thanks

[@redbull5671]

@Cliff Ennico is the best public speaker in America! Thanks Cliff!

[@robotmees]

Great content! New and original!

[@venkateshkattela5330]

Cliff, your teachings are foundation material. Cosmetic knowledge will not hep to succeed. I just absorb the wisdom you share. Thank you.

[@user-qj2ou5ci4v]

This guy is just a real gem. I'm going to watch as many of his videos as I can. Thanks for the great info!

[@Feronom]

right? much better than gary vee

[@andyd568]

Cliff is hilarious. I love his matter of fact attitude. Gets straight to the point without the fluffy stuff.

[@Shawk95]

Another wonderful video by Cliff. I learned a lot.

[@diamondadatiacpa]

Cliff comes across very easy to understand and has good ideas; they make a lot of sense. The second time you listen to the same show, you will understand it more!

[@erlend_haarstad]

Hi Cliff, I just started watching your videos recently, and I want to tell you that your talks and information are great. Thank you!

[@ruggiec.ruggleby6511]

I don't think that successful business people are really cynical at all. Most genuinely believe that what they're doing is right, in the context of the industry they're in. The example you have of opening liquor stores in downtrodden neighborhoods, they are providing quality, regulated alcohol in areas that would be prone to illegal brewing and all its related ills. I think the key is to throw oneself into an industry that you see the inherent value in, so that you don't have to be cynical to succeed in it, then you can see the possibility to service people ethically.

[@LouisianaNative13]

Thank You, Amazing Information. Thank You for all of your Trademark videos as well. I am learning a lot.

[@davidvergie]

My God. Been listening/reading to those entrepreneurship books/videos, and your videos are definitely one of the top must-watch video, if not, it's the most powerful video I've ever watched/learnt.

[@Raydfernandez]

I agree!

[@Feronom]

[@AlreadyWinning]

Very good, well organized. Thank you for the video.

[@tristantully5029]

[@armani3234]

Brilliant brain ! Thank you for sharing .

[@karena2133]

As a book and magazine editor, I say with all sincerity, what a phenomenal cast of characters Cliff Ennico describes in these evergreen stories. I just happened to let another video I was watching roll to the next video and this came up, much to my delight. I've already shared it twice. Thanks, looking forward to catching up on the years of Cliff Ennico videos I've missed!

[@liamjones71]

amazing guy

[@knighthawk3559]

My first year in business, I have been contracting for other small companies. The directors are always on guard and I sense that they see me as a potential threat. Its all nice when we talk but if I say that I have started to win my own contracts and share good news, I sense their concern. I never understood this as there is plenty of work out there. These small companies are making plenty of money, but their insecurities were so evident. This video has explained why. Thank you.

[@ZenifyInvestments]

So good to be validated for those traits i also have.

[@Fiona-hp4mw]

Now that is a real entrepreneur lesson. Hey, J. Albert Johnson Jewelers closed last Jan 2019.

[@fekete-kiss-sandor]

Yor lessons are excellent, true, realistic, and humorous.

[@Networkrr]

Something I have noticed is that if I get a good nights sleep and wake up feeling energized... Then I am ready to #hustle. However if I wake up groggy, I feel like dog do do all day. Just my experience.

2 Golden RULES to entrepreneurship...........PATIENTS AND DISIPLINE

[@nosaiyare5190]

This is some good stuff

[@Zo-hc2fn]

I am thinking about a new type of restaurants : eating-spots, in eating-spots, food keeps changing, chefs also rotate, this is opposed to current restaurants, thanks to this rotation of food and chefs, eating-spots are way more powerful than restaurants, along with that, there is an app, people vote for the food that will be cooked in the next days, menu is influenced by the live input of the people via an app.

[@dirtybomb32]

You are the fucking man!!!! Every word coming out of your mouth is absolute HOT MOLTEN LAVA FIRE + BRIMSTONE DEATH BRINGING TRUTHS, SKILLZ-KNOWLEDGE!!

[@lordmetroid]

45:30 I would be ruthless and felt no pity at all. Probably would have uttered a loud *pft* as well.

[@jonathancheok7061]

Very very insightful thank you very much! You helped a young entrepreneur all the way on the other side of the globe! Thanks!

[@nomadbound9610]

[@smtiic]

An entrepreneur takes risk experiment fine-tune and keeps going on

[@THIStm]

[@TheLittleColumbus]

[@frednyongesa3141]

[@aprao2469]

[@brianvent]

He does.

[@jacobhill3251]

Alternative #3 word: Sociopathic

[@shawnbauer6779]

"How do I exploit those for my own personal gain?" Does this really sound like a way to go through life? It seems sad and lonely to me. Money cannot buy happiness.

[@bobdabuilder4075]

you are always doing something for your own personal gain. its the only reason we move

bOB dAbUILDER That isn't true. Sometimes people do is right because it is right. The fact it is right gains them nothing. No recognition and no profit. Sometimes doing what is right even yields a negative result. Ridicule and loss. I already know what you are going to say. But you wanted to do it so there is your gain. Wrong. Sometimes people are also compelled. The unseen hand of fate will force you to act.

[@bobdabuilder4075]

you are doing something right because it makes you feel better. that is the personal/emotional gain you are seeking. sorry for the late reply i'm re watching this video and seeing your response.

[@bobdabuilder4075]

money can make you happy if you spend it on the people you love. buy you mother father brother and sister a Rolls Royce

[@numbereight886]

Shawn Bauer - Sounds like a poor choice of words but they most likely reflect his underlying thought processes. My angle on the same expression is 'how do I leverage others to achieve my goals'.

[@maraeva4415]

good for an all men world, but there are women and he forgot...

[@user-mg9uy6pv9i]

We are made up of an elite software and app engineers. We are ready to work for you

[@stellaercolani3810]

Scam, scam, scam...oh yeah and irritate ppl like Unwanted telemarketers!

[@martinvestergaardportraits5654]

To many jokes about licor, rabits, lions etc.

[@GR8UKGB]

This guy likes the sound of his own voice too much. He could have summed that lot up in 15 mins

[@KF1]

Good story-teller though. I enjoyed it, but yeah, found myself thinking 'hey, get to the point!'

[@godofrost4411]

Why do u disable all your comments ur a weirdo u say weird awkward things and then another thing is you go in circles and it’s like I don’t even know what point your making u like to give examples only of yourself and it’s like I didn’t really learn anything man I dunno

[@hon-kitchang1844]

GodOFrost you must be a dumb fug not to know what Cliff is speaking about

[@oscarmkoma908]

The best lecture.
