SMART Goals Goals and objectives motivate people and help them to work in the right direction. This helps them to focus on short term goals by giving them enough time to achieve them. In other words, the strategy for your goals should be  SMART , which when elaborated in this context means − ●       Specific  −  The first thing is to be sure about your goals. Like imagining your goal for 10 minutes every day. ●       Measurable  −  Set a time by which you should probably reach your goal. Like becoming more productive and increasing some percent of productivity is not specific. ●       Attainable  −  Make goals that you can achieve within the given timeframe. For example, if you are thinking of doubling your salary within a month, it is not possible. ●       Relevant  −  The goals you aim should be like your situation. For ex...

Prioritizing Goals based on Re-Gating Sensory Gating   is a process that the brain uses to adjust to stimuli. Our brain has a direct connection to filter out distracting stimuli and performance. Negative emotions like stress, anxiety and depression can switch the chemistry of the brain and limit the effectiveness of sensory gating. It is very important to set priorities. All your goals should be prioritized, so that you can focus on them accordingly. You should learn to maintain a proper balance in your life through personal values, visions and professional goals. So, to prevent this imbalance, Re-Gating is important. This can be done by using some relaxing techniques like meditation which calms the mind and body and filter out distractions. It is better to try some relaxation techniques before goal setting to have a clear mind, so that it becomes easier to fulfill certain goals and objectives.  

Goal-setting Strategies Goal setting is directly related with entrepreneurship. To get success, proper goal setting in personal and professional level is important. An entrepreneur does this by following proper strategy and implementation and not just by listing down what he wants to do. It demands an emotional and intellectual balance to be achieved successfully. Listening to Your Emotions It is very important to understand the emotional aspect of goal setting to achieve it. Emotions make a person who they are. Emotions affect a person’s health and work as well. Personal vision is important to achieve what you aim for. This can be done by the following ways − ●       Vision  −  A clear vision helps people have a goal and connect them with their convictions and emotions. ●       Recognize your values  −  Values show what you have learnt and those lessons will shape your future. ●    ...

Risk-taking Propensity Risk-taking propensity is one of the most eminent features in the world of entrepreneurship. It is defined as the willingness to take moderate risks. This motivational influence on entrepreneurship is the result of the need to have achievements as people with a high need of achievement are always willing to take moderate risks. This is because activities with moderate risk are both challenging and achievable at the same time. This keeps people interested in the potential profitability of the venture, while also motivating them to take a calculated risk.  

Need for Achievement Entrepreneurs realize that they should engage in activities or tasks where they must share a high degree of individual responsibility for outcomes. Hence, they need individual skill and effort to design plans that have moderate or less than moderate risk. In a nutshell, these individuals know how to deal with situations in which they can achieve results through their efforts. They also know that by effective utility of available resources helps them to achieve difficult goals through a timely and transparent feedback mechanism.    

Non-motivational Factors that Influence Entrepreneurship There are many non-motivational factors that also influence entrepreneurship. Some of the most prominent of them are as follows − ●       Unsatisfactory work environment ●       Unwanted career transition ●       Positive pull influences Apart from these, there are many other characteristics such as − ●       Established family business ●       Childhood ●       Family environment ●       Education ●       Age ●       Work history Some of the most important factors behind entrepreneurship are − ●       A desire for applying innovative thoughts ●       A desire for independent functioning ●   ...

Entrepreneurial Motivations Motivation is the driving force within people that get them to act in the ways they do. Entrepreneurial motivations are necessary steps of getting individuals to become entrepreneurs. Scholars have conducted various researches on entrepreneurial motivations and have come up with several factors that motivate people to become entrepreneurs. The standard issue with the concept of “Entrepreneurial Motivation” is that many scholars do not agree on the all the special characteristics that the entrepreneurs are supposed to possess to function as entrepreneurs. In fact, there have been noted cases where successful entrepreneurs haven’t been found possessing many or all the special characteristics identified by experts to become successful entrepreneurs. Hence, scholars now identify a set of several human motivations that influence the entrepreneurial process and have concluded that that entrepreneurial spirits are not solely the result of human action. External fac...

Types of Entrepreneurs Based on their working relationship with the business environment they are functioning in, various types of entrepreneurs can be found. The chief categories are these four types of entrepreneurs, i.e. ●       Innovative entrepreneurs, ●       Imitating Entrepreneurs, ●       Fabian Entrepreneurs, and ●       Drone Entrepreneurs. Let us now discuss each of them in detail. Innovative Entrepreneurs This type of an entrepreneur is more interested in introducing some new ideas into the market, organization or in the nation.

Who is a Technopreneur? Just like entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs, we also have a “technopreneur”, who is an individual interested in bringing innovations thorough technology, and then using the same technology to build a successful business empire. A technopreneur is first a  technological innovator   and then a businessman who wants to create self-employment and other employment opportunities through his technological innovations.  

Who is an Intrepreneur? There are many possible situations where a potential entrepreneur doesn’t get a chance to establish or fund his or her own business and is forced to work in an organization. In this case they are referred to as ‘Intrepreneurs’ i.e. entrepreneurs within an organization. These individuals are also entrepreneurs because they don’t share the typical “employer employee” relationship with their bosses; instead, they operate just as collaborators and are treated as visionaries in the organization. Sometimes, such individuals themselves aren’t aware of their talent and hidden skills. The organization needs to identify these talented people and then encourage these individuals to exercise their entrepreneurial abilities to the benefit of the organization otherwise such people eventually will get frustrated over the routine life and will leave the organization or start their own businesses to pursue their ideas. How an Entrepreneur differs from an Intrapreneur? An entrepr...

Who is an Entrepreneur? Entrepreneurs are business people who can detect and sense the availability of business opportunities in any given scenario. They will then utilize these opportunities to create new products by employing new production methods in different markets. They will also function in different ways by using various resources who will give them profit. It is important to note that although most entrepreneurial businesses start small, the owners of such businesses need not be small scale owners. They could in fact be big business owners, who first try and test the waters before investing big time in the business. Small business owners dread risk, but successful entrepreneurs are very innovative and know how to operate profitably in a business environment, even if the risk is very high. In fact, innovation is the life blood of any kind of entrepreneurs; this is one of the tools that helps them gain an advantage over established players in the market. Entrepreneurs are, thus...

What is Entrepreneurship? Entrepreneurship is the act of creating a business or businesses while building and scaling it to generate a profit. However, as a basic entrepreneurship definition, it’s a bit limiting. The more modern entrepreneurship definition is also about transforming the world by solving big problems. Like initiating  social change , creating an innovative product or presenting a new life-changing solution. What the entrepreneurship definition doesn’t tell you is that entrepreneurship is what people do to take their career and dreams into their hands and lead it in the direction of their own choice. It’s about building a  life on your own terms . No bosses. No restricting schedules. And no one holding you back. Entrepreneurs are able to take the first step into making the world a better place, for everyone in it. What is an Entrepreneur? Entrepreneur Definition   An entrepreneur is a person who sets up a business with the aim to make a profit. This entrepr...

10 Types of Leadership Skills You Need to Have   Leaders possess skills that may not always easy to define. But we know leadership when we see it. As a result, those with leadership abilities share several qualities that make them successful and stand out. For example, they remain anchored by a clear set of principles and values about themselves, the people in their lives and their place in the world. The great world leaders: Kennedy, Gandhi, Mandela, Merkle, May and esteemed business leaders: Cooke, Sandberg, Gates, Winfrey all offer answers to the question of whether great leaders are born or made. There is significant evidence to suggest that both are true. Many are born into leadership and others are born with the qualities that propel them into leadership.
