The experience of being an entrepreneur changes you,
fundamentally, from the way you think to the way you act and the way you want
to live your life. Most of the time, it’s for the better, and occasionally for
the worse, but entrepreneurship will change your life. Here are 50 ways:
1. You become passionate about working. Success in entrepreneurship depends on
following your passions.
2. You wonder how you ever held a normal job. Each day, that typical office-based 9-to-5
lifestyle seems stranger and less appealing to you.
3. You think critically about everything. Being in control makes you evaluate
everything, from your morning coffee to the arrangement of your living room
furniture.
4. New experiences become a commodity. You crave new experiences because you know
they’re a gateway to new insights.
5. Everything can turn into an idea. Every object, situation and experience
you encounter becomes a potential platform for a new idea.
6. You see the potential in everyone. You see the strengths and weaknesses in
people, sometimes immediately, and imagine their great potential.
7. You can reduce most things to numbers (if you choose to).Entrepreneurs
have to objectively analyze very subjective topics -- the result is your
ability to objectively analyze almost everything.
8. You get a new perspective on common situations. Some things seem more important, and others
wholly unimportant.
9. You don’t care about small failures. When you stumble, make a mistake or lose
something, those failures somehow don't seem as bad.
10. You embrace criticism and feedback. When someone points out something you’re
doing wrong, you embrace that feedback as an opportunity to improve.
11. You support other people’s passions. You know the value of passion and support it
in others.
12. You appreciate personal freedom more. Once you’ve tasted it, there’s no going back.
13. You make decisions more easily. After making 100 decisions a day, all other
decisions in life seem easy.
14. Your problems seem smaller. Your daily crises pale in comparison to what
you face as a company leader.
15. Your brain never turns off. You find yourself thinking and brainstorming
all the time, with no reprieve.
16. You constantly want to learn new skills. You’re thrilled at the notion of how much you
have left to learn.
17. You read more than you ever did before. Books, news, articles . . . you love to
absorb new information.
18. You want to meet new people more than ever. You realize the value of new connections, and
love to meet interesting new people.
19. You can’t just do nothing. If you feel as if you aren’t making progress
at something, you go crazy.
20. Everything becomes a productivity challenge. You want to make everything as efficient as
possible.
