070: The Most Common Decision-Making Mistake Entrepreneurs Make


Listen Later

Today we are sharing what we think is the biggest mistake a business owner can make. It involves wasting time trying to find the perfect business solution. Many newcomers want a magic wand answer to get to a certain outcome. Today we will tell you why there is no RIGHT way.
Business is a trial and error process. Everyone’s path to success is different and dependant on the person in the driver’s seat. We explain why it’s a false idea that there  is a “right way” to follow to reach success. Success is done by people who actually do things and find their own way to reach their goals.
For those who have no idea on where to start, we have two pieces of advice:
Explore all the options.  Make sure to study all the methods.
Be comfortable with making  mistakes and go out and do  it.
Although there is no textbook answer to success, following these two suggestions will help any newcomer find their own strengths and opinions. Go out and learn your own answer.
We invite you to join our Facebook group.  It’s great to have such an incredible group of entrepreneurs out there making it happen every day.  We’d love to hear from you; please feel free to join our Facebook group and share your experiences, challenges, and motivation with us and the rest of Startup Chat community.
