Wantrepreneur

Someone who is gonna start a business

Someone who thinks about starting a business all the time

Someone who will find the right idea someday

Someone who wants to act like an entrepreneur

Entrepreneur

Entrepreneurs believe anything is possible; they hustle, focused, optimistic, self-reliant, risk-taker, driven.

Real entrepreneurs do what they say they're going to do, wannabes ask about it and have lots and lots of coffee meetings.

Instead of doing what is needed to do to start a business, they just had numerous coffee meetings and achieved nothing and went nowhere.

Wantrepreneurs play with the image of success now, a real entrepreneur works to live it later on.

Wantrepreneurs are the ones pretending of their success to show their family, friends, friends in FB. Lying to oneself will achieve nothing

Real entrepreneurs hustle. Wantrepreneurs are afraid to hustle, to take action, focus, sell, knock on doors and break things.

The business goal of a wantrepreneur is the money, an entrepreneur's goal is to be the VERY best.

Wantrepreneurs works and chase for the money and tend to forget that their mission must be the very best in whatever you do.

Entrepreneurs are driven, focused by their passion. Wantrepreneurs are driven by what they think their passion should be and are all over the place.

Wantrepreneurs are confused on what they are passionate about or don't know their goals. They just jumped into a project , started a business w/o really knowing if this is their passion or goal.

…. so why is it important to understand the different mindsets?

Wantrepreneurs go nowhere and find it hard to achieve anything. When we start being honest and true to ourselves, things will change, we will start to grow and eventually make an impact.

Its important to assess yourself and if you are or was a wantrepreneur before, its not too late to RESTART everything including your mindset (ie you've had enough or not gone anywhere and now you want to be successful)
