Being a Successful Entrepreneur – Don’t Let Doubts Kill the Dreams

Humans are not perfect, neither are their thoughts perfect. It’s human to be doubtful, whether it is about decisions related to personal, professional or social life, as humans have this realization that they cannot be completely right about anything all the time. What differentiates an entrepreneur from others that they are able to be strong and win over their doubts and take decisions on their own and proceed with it.

Over their lifetime many people come up with new ideas which may change the existing, but they decide not proceed with it as they allow their doubts to rule over. Doubts like:

‘What if things go wrong?’

‘What if the energy, money and time invested goes waste?’

‘What if the people do not accept this new idea?’.

‘’Doubt is the biggest dream killer than failure”

Talking about the entrepreneurs, almost one in every 10 individual have a wish and idea to start their own business. But in most of the cases it is the doubt which don’t let ideas to work on. People get scared with possibilities of failure and give up their dreams. Starting a venture may be easy and everything might seem possible. However there can be initial failures as well. One should not let failures discourage from progressing. In my opinion failures are much better than having false presumptions. To be successful in the long run you need to be so passionate about your ideas and dreams and work towards it with a well organised plan. Whatever your idea is make a rough plan for it, including your doubts and certainties. The second thing which is required to convert your rough sketch into a successful venture is- a proper analysis regarding your ideas and most importantly about your doubts. A proper analysis and knowledge is the only thing which can help you out there. Drop your plan only when your analysis shows very less possibility of being successful.In times of doubt, generally people approach their friends and near and dear ones to clear their doubt, with a hope that they will help you out. At some point it is good only but, frankly saying it is not great idea. What is the guarantee that the person whom you approach for guidance will guide you in the right direction? For someone else to be able to guide you they need to have proper and sufficient knowledge themselves. It is always a good idea to approach a professional for a professional advice instead of family, friends or colleagues. Being misguided can be worse than having no knowledge of the field.

Fear is truly the biggest dream killer. People avoid chasing their dreams only because they are afraid of obstacles which may come in the way of fulfilling their dream. Fear stops many people even before starting.
