I read the E-Myth some time ago and they draw the distinction between working on your business and working in your business. For me that captures the essence of difference between someone with an employee mindset who is trying to start a business and a true entrepreneur. Everything on your list has to do with working "on" your business in some respect. A great list Ann.

A lack of self-discipline (#4) - it's really easy to get excited about a great business idea initially, but if you don't have the discipline to follow through with hard work every single day, you'll never see real success.<br><br>2. Reluctance to "take the leap" (#s 7, 8, 9, and 10) - It's one thing to say that you're launching a new business, but it's quite another to actually invest something worthwhile in the success of your business, whether that something is your time, money, or reputation. <br><br>Thanks for the post; gives me some things to think about.

The only thing I would add to your list is to be unique. Being unique causes you and your brand to standout which in return sets you apart from the competition. Great post.
