"What are the differences?" - an obvious question
Recently I looked through a book called the Top 10 Distinctions Between Entrepreneur and Employees. The tittle made me pose the question. I am going to start a new label: entrepreneur for the blog. Why start a label? Under business I will focus more on business actions and in in this new label I will focus on applying new business thinking.
Distinction#1: Entrepreneurs educate themselves more than they entertain themselves. Employees entertain themselves more than they educate themselves.
I believe that this distinction is right on the money. In my opinion we always have to be aware of our gaps. If something is important to your success then determine the gap between where you are and where you want to be when you become successful. Now that you have identified the gap then determine what education will fill that gap. It could be a course, it could be a book, it could be anything that helps reduce the gap.
The second portion in the distinction is that employees entertain themselves. If you spend your time at work and at home watching TV or just surfing the web then you are not educating yourself. It is a choice.
Today's question is:
"What are you educating yourself to do?"
