Entrepreneurs are admirable. Indeed, some entrepreneurs don't really want to start a business. The root cause lies in unclear entrepreneurial logic, insufficient professional and cognitive abilities, personal personality defects, and value orientation. If it is a problem of ability and cognition, it can't be regarded as a pseudo-entrepreneur. Of course, some so-called entrepreneurs don't have the original intention of making a project but have another purpose. Then let's take a look at what a real entrepreneur is, and those who fail to meet the standards can be regarded as pseudo-entrepreneurs. First, the initial intention of entrepreneurs is to solve a pain point, achieve a goal, and be willing to pay for it, so as to complete the sublimation of individuals
It may be a bit illusory to talk about the initial intention of starting a business, but the fact is that every entrepreneur wants to change his life and create his own. This initial intention can be to make money, buy a house, find a girlfriend, and find a business opportunity, which is no problem. In the end, the achievement of these initial intentions needs an entrepreneurial process to achieve. Moreover, the real entrepreneur will not struggle for the position on the business card, what he wants is to achieve the goal. In the process of pursuing ideals, it is impossible to succeed without all-out efforts. This is the original motivation of real entrepreneurs.
Entrepreneurship requires attitude and willingness to pay, which is the fundamental difference between real entrepreneurs and so-called pseudo-entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs can follow their initial intentions to restrain their behavior and get rid of bad habits in the past. Although these are not easy, at least they have this desire and put it into action. Get up early every day, read every day, study majors, integrate resources, visit users, and devote most of your time to entrepreneurship, regardless of gains and losses. Although they all have fatigue periods, they are full of vitality after adjustment. Frankly speaking, this process, even if this venture fails, is a good harvest. Second, in order to achieve the goal of starting a business, self-examination and self-discipline should be made, so as to match their abilities with the requirements of starting a business.
Entrepreneurs know very well that if they want to succeed, they must constantly improve themselves and make themselves worthy of success. Therefore, everyone will look at themselves, evaluate and judge their own strengths and weaknesses, so as to find the shortcomings, list the learning and improvement plans to fill the shortcomings, instead of waiting for others to help, and of course need various resources to help.
Of course, starting a business is not static, but entrepreneurs who don't upgrade themselves are hard to succeed, and they will make mistakes if they live on their laurels and rely on experience. The most important thing is self-discipline. Tomorrow's procrastination is not a real venture. We need to adjust our mentality and socialize, but it will never become the theme. Often sleeping late, always putting off work, and reading a book for a year will keep you away from real entrepreneurs. At least understand that ability and dedication are matched with success. Third, have the spirit of compromise and sacrifice, so as to ensure team cooperation and achieve big goals, and have strategic thinking, regardless of immediate gains and losses
In the process of starting a business, it is common to have different ideas from teams and users. When communicating products and needs with users, entrepreneurs not only insist on their own logic and opinions, but also listen to users' opinions and feedback, so as to improve products and services, so as to achieve better cooperation, instead of always blaming users for problems, but rarely reflecting on themselves.
if you have differences with team members, you would rather give up some vested and long-term interests and meet someone of value, dilute the equity and make them partners, and at the same time distinguish the value of experts and entrepreneurs in order to ensure the realization of the goals. As long as the partner system in the initial stage is reasonable, the team is unified in values and big goals, and everything else can be discussed, so as to ensure the promotion of entrepreneurial projects and put collaboration in the first place. This premise is that it will not affect the overall situation. However, if the team can't unify their thinking, they also need the founder to make a decision. In fact, this is a strategic and long-term thinking. Fourth, disown the six parents in front of the rules, stress the rule of law and disregard human feelings, establish an entrepreneurial system and put yourself in it < P > The spirit of compromise and sacrifice of entrepreneurs is not bottomless, and these are all based on the rules. Partner system, corporate governance institutions and systems, processes and standards, etc., must be clear, and no member can destroy this foundation. Even if the management of the startup company is backward, it can't be without rules. Real entrepreneurs know that team is more important than anything else. If someone breaks the system, they will bear the consequences, instead of relying on personal relationships.
In addition, in order to do a good job in the legal system, entrepreneurs should exclude relatives and pure friends at the early stage, but allocate the organizational structure and partners according to the needs of the entrepreneurial project itself. The most important entrepreneur as the founder should put himself in this system, so as to set an example better, and he is neither indecisive nor ambitious. Fifth, work around users' needs, not for self-realization, so as to avoid being the most authentic pseudo-entrepreneurial project.
In addition to finding accurate users, we should provide them with different products and services. Remember that no product can solve everyone's problems. In reality, there are many products or services developed by entrepreneurs, which are not really needed by users. This is the understanding of entrepreneurs themselves. Even the process of starting a business is to make your own products, not to satisfy users, and to persevere tirelessly. Such entrepreneurs are definitely pseudo-entrepreneurs.
We have talked too much about users' thinking in recent years. It is the only goal to find market demand and provide services around users in combination with industry trends. Although some users have high education costs, we should persist in doing so. It's just a question of how to delete and select users and which kind of users to prioritize, which is what real entrepreneurs should understand. Sixth, we have the consciousness of bearing the consequences and the courage to start all over again
Although there are more and more small-cost businesses in this era, there are few businesses with no cost at all in reality. Entrepreneurship is a behavior with high risk coefficient, and there are many entrepreneurial failures. The loss of funds, quarreling with partners, breaking up with friends, and family members' incomprehension may all occur. In addition to finding out the problems objectively, we should also have the consciousness of bearing the consequences, rather than shirking the responsibility. This mentality is not a real entrepreneur.
It's good to start a business once, but more businesses end in failure. If this fails, will it be over? Now that we've gone through the resumption and taken the consequences, we can start all over again. This mentality is the driving force behind the success of real entrepreneurs.
To sum up, real entrepreneurs are people who constantly pursue the peak. They will give up some good things for their goals, or even fail miserably. In order to start a business project, you can put aside your interests and dignity and find someone, money and direction. They will also handle the relationship between emotion, reason and law in the team, so as to ensure the continued progress of their careers. Pseudo-entrepreneurs, on the other hand, are more concerned about their positions, the proportion of equity, the products they take for granted, and are unwilling to learn and improve systematically. They are complacent about fragmented information as knowledge, and always like to talk about the general principles, the general direction and the general logic, and those irrelevant visions, and even the most basic self-discipline can't be done well. To use an old saying, it's like a child playing house. Zhao Maomao, I am an entrepreneur. What a skin-cutting experience! Cats used to be professional managers for 21 years, and now they are entrepreneurs. The only difference between the two is that entrepreneurs want to enjoy more scenery, first of all, they must resist enough hardships, and laugh at them, take pleasure in them and enjoy them.
I give you a song-it has made the cat burst into tears countless times, and it has also made the cat courageously move forward countless times:
The brightest star in the night sky
Whenever I can't find the meaning of existence
Whenever I get lost in the dark
oh~ the brightest star in the night sky
Please light me up and move forward
These are the experiences and suggestions of Cat Zhao.
This question is a good one, which directly hits the essence of entrepreneurs and the core of the problem. First, give the topic a backhand compliment.
In this era of "mass entrepreneurship and innovation", entrepreneurship has gradually become a fashion. Everyone is like a crucian carp crossing the river, holding the simple and simple desire of "becoming a young model of a clubhouse and losing the construction site to move bricks", they have put their own wealth into entrepreneurship and become a moving landscape on the land of China.
because of my career, I have met many entrepreneurs. Just as the difference between truth and falsehood is only one thought, and crossing the barrier of one thought is better than crossing the Qian Shan, the difference between entrepreneurs and pseudo-entrepreneurs is only one thought and a thin line. Risk is the only criterion to measure entrepreneurs and pseudo-entrepreneurs
A real entrepreneur has a good sense of risk, can objectively look at the risks in the process of starting a business, and has the ability to bear these risks. On the contrary, those entrepreneurs who are highly risk-averse and try to reduce risk to zero in the process of starting a business are pseudo-entrepreneurs.
Some time ago, a friend introduced me to an entrepreneur, who claimed to be the person with the highest IQ in the local area and developed an innovative product. He wanted me to write a business plan for him. Interestingly, the entrepreneur's patent evaluation report was obtained through free means, and even the business plan was hoped to be free. This way of trying to transfer risks is difficult to effectively promote the project, and it is impossible to establish an effective operation team due to the lack of strong responsibility.
I've also seen another type of entrepreneur. If there is no risk, employees' salaries will not be settled next month, and personnel are still desperately recruiting people, and they can't hold back. This is not a real entrepreneur, but a gambler, and the hope of winning is slim.
Almost all entrepreneurs, when they enter the entrepreneurial role, must be real entrepreneurs, and there is no distinction between authenticity and falsehood. Because as an entrepreneur, once you invest money and energy, you will definitely go all out. If you want to divide entrepreneurs into real entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs, you can only define them from the following aspects:
1. Whether you can face difficulties and problems directly
Entrepreneurship is a road of no return. On the road to starting a business, there is little time for good weather, and most of the time problems overlap and difficulties are connected with difficulties. This requires entrepreneurs to have the most basic ability, that is, to face difficulties calmly, to face problems squarely, and to try their best to solve problems. It is impossible to start a business if you habitually avoid difficulties and do nothing when facing problems.
Therefore, whether we can face difficulties and problems directly is the difference between real entrepreneurs and pseudo-entrepreneurs.
2. Is it tough?
Almost every entrepreneur has to go through the initial stage, development stage, maturity stage and transformation stage. This is a marathon-style long-distance running, a mountaineering exercise, and ultimately it is the endurance of entrepreneurs and whether they have tough characteristics. Only with this trait can we be most likely to succeed. If you encounter setbacks at every stage and give up the entrepreneurial project, you can't go to the end. Many successful big companies, mostly experienced eighty-one difficult, came to the end with the tenacity of entrepreneurs.
Therefore, whether or not you have tough characteristics is the difference between a real entrepreneur and a pseudo-entrepreneur.
3. Concentration is the basic requirement for entrepreneurs
When some entrepreneurs do a project, they will give up and look for new entrepreneurial projects in the short term. Constantly changing industries, changing business models, etc., it is difficult to achieve anything in the end. And some successful entrepreneurs are in this industry, stick to it for many years, focus on the industry and focus on their own products. After the precipitation of time, it gradually gained the recognition of the market and customers, and finally became a leader in the industry. Therefore, for entrepreneurs, whether to focus is a key factor.
Therefore, concentration is one of the factors that distinguish real entrepreneurs from pseudo-entrepreneurs.
iv. Is there the ability to integrate resources?
Entrepreneurs are resource integrators, and they are the process of realizing things from scratch. In this process, entrepreneurs are required to be experts in resource integration. Need to have the ability to integrate resources around you. Integrate funds, integrate products, and integrate people around you to create value. And redistribute the value. If an entrepreneur does not have the ability to integrate resources around him, it is difficult to achieve entrepreneurial success.
Therefore, whether you have the ability to integrate resources is one of the differences between real entrepreneurs and pseudo-entrepreneurs.
summary;
If we want to divide entrepreneurs into real entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs, we should distinguish them mainly according to whether we can face problems and difficulties directly, tenacity, concentration and the ability to integrate resources in the process of starting a business.
that's a good question. I am an entrepreneur, trying to answer.
what's the difference between a real entrepreneur and a fake entrepreneur? For people, personal abilities are large and small; Everyone has different ideas; So! It is doomed to a completely different entrepreneurial behavior and results. The so-called "pseudo-entrepreneurship" can only be said that in the process of starting a business, it is not so "infatuated" persistence and absorbed investment; What are the differences between the two? I thought. First, dependence.
In the process of starting a business, "pseudo-start-up" is too emotional and not determined enough to do things. When encountering difficulties, they always rely on attachment, refusal, or vacillation and indecision; In short, the kind of indecision; Do things, always rely on others, to complete. However, real entrepreneurs are accustomed to doing things themselves, especially in the initial stage, for constructive work, for example, market development! Network accumulation! Product sales, channel construction! Wait, TM knows very well that only by personal experience can we have a better grasp and control; These real data collections are more reliable and powerful only when they are sorted out by themselves; Facilitate the development of entrepreneurial projects. What does "force" mean? Where to go and where to use "strength" is more appropriate. Second, the sense of responsibility.
For entrepreneurs, it is not only a kind of business, but also a kind of income. At the same time, it should also be a career of life.
For those "pseudo-entrepreneurs", no matter how much they earn, they pay attention to their personal preferences, such as eating, drinking, playing and having fun, and occasionally taking advantage of their spare time, which is similar to gambling, partying and having an affair. People who do "things" really need a sense of responsibility. Do things, be worthy of your "conscience", be worthy of your family, and be worthy of your friends and relatives. Be responsible for family, career, debts, partners and employees; If there is a sincere sense of responsibility, then, in this society, there will be fewer entrepreneurial losers and less "old lai".
even if a real entrepreneur
