ARE YOU A SOLOPRENEUR OR ENTREPRENEUR?

In this post I want to share what the difference is between a Solopreneur and an Entrepreneur and the cover the pros and cons of each. Most people fall into one category or the other, but many people may find themselves further in-between.

The term “solopreneur” is becoming more and more popular. As we go through a global recession, many people find themselves having to work at home and alone. In this post I would like to address the difference between the two most common types of entrepreneurs, the solopreneur and the entrepreneur.

What separates a solopreneur from an entrepreneur is:

A solopreneur is only one person eg YOU. This person does all of the work, the research, product management, writing and editing, customer service etc. It’s all done by one person. This gives the business a low overhead cost, which means more of the money can be re-invested into growing the business. In a way, this actually can work in your favor if...

Many times when this happens we get frustrated and stop. However, if we just keep pursuing what we want in life, the stars will align and things will work out for us in the end trust me.

Focus On What You Can Control

Having a good day has everything to do with how you focus your attention. You can't control life or business, but you can control your focus. When you start focusing on what you don't have, it's only natural that your day will go downhill . Conversely, if you only focus on what's in front of you, then that's what will change.

Stuck here on earth for an extended period of time, you really only have three existential traits you can control: your vision, your values, and your focus. Given these constraints of time and space, the only thing you can focus on is what's in front of you. You can't control the past or the future, but you can decide what to focus on today. You can't control what your competitors are doing or not doing, but you can control your focus. You don't have the authority to change others, but you do have the power to change how they affect you by choosing to focus on what you can control.
