How To Become An Entrepreneur

Got a great business idea? You can turn your dream into a reality by first getting over your fears. Jen Groover, author of the forthcoming What If? And Why Not?, was here with the steps you need to take to become an entrepreneur.

• Have More Fear of Regret than Failure - We're conditioned in our society to be fearful of failure. Fear is a natural instinct, however if you can condition yourself to fear regret more it gives you more courage to take risks.

• Be OK with Being Uncomfortable - Anytime you start something new the unknowns are what bring on the fears but if you can embrace being uncomfortable it allows you to grow and move towards your fullest potential more rapidly.

• Hit the Mental Reset Button - When negative thoughts of doubts and fear enter your mind, train yourself to hit the mental reset button. Condition yourself to turn those negative thoughts into positive thoughts.

• Entrepreneurship is Not About Business, it's About Self Transformation - It's more about looking at yourself in the mirror and seeing who you want to become, not what business you want to start.

• Always Ask "What if & Why Not?" - Asking "What if & Why Not?" allows you to see things in terms of possibilities instead of impossibilities

What If? and Why Not?: How to Transform Your Fears Into Action and Start the Business of Your Dreams will hit bookshelves in March 2010. For more information, visit www.jengroover.com.
