Interpreneur. What on earth does that mean, you are thinking?
Well, Interpreneur is derived from 2 words: Entrepreneur, and
Internet. An Entrepreneur is someone who creates markets and
businesses to fill those markets. Any household dictionary would
agree and conclude it's also someone who assumes the risk of
creating those new business's, ventures, startups. The Internet
is, well, you know what it is; you are using it right now! So,
putting those two words together gives us a far more important
concept. An Interpreneur is someone who creates Internet
businesses!
Looking further into the idea of what an Entrepreneur is,
Dictionary.com defines it more precisely as someone who starts
businesses, builds them, and then sells them, or leads the
business towards bankruptcy. In my opinion, this is far from the
truth. In my opinion anyone who has his hands in a lot of
business opportunities, thinks creatively, and is there for the
long term, is an Entrepreneur. How Dictionary.com describes an
Entrepreneur is more of a gambling machine. Put money in, get
money out, loosing some money each time.
Anyway, you are now wondering, how do I become an Internet
Entrepreneur? This can be a very tough question to answer,
because it varies from person to person. Other, more specific
questions such as:
"How do I make money on the internet?"
"How can I get passive income of thousands?"
Or even, "what exactly IS the Internet used for commercially?"
May pop into your head, and cause all sorts of worrying emotions
to cloud your mind. However, regardless of any questions or
doubts you may have, the key to it all is this one simple
concept:
Success starts from within YOU! Not someone else or
circumstances you are in, but within YOU, more exactly within
your brains!
What exactly does that mean though? It's all about the choices
you make, the responsibility you take for your life, and whether
you have what it takes. But, what it takes is only thinking like
successful rich people! Now you are asking, wait a minute,
wouldn't everyone be rich then? No, they wouldn't, because it's
completely different how the rich and successful people think,
compared to a "normal" human.
For example, here is a short story of a fisherman:
A rich man saw a fisherman in the harbor, handling his catch.
The Rich man asks the Fisherman "Would you like to be
financially free & rich?"
-Fisherman replies "No, that's too much work."
Rich man asks "Why would it be too much work?"
-Fisherman: "Because I'd have to catch so much fish that I
wouldn't have time to do anything else, and even then it
wouldn't be enough"
Rich man looks at his pricing: "Raise your price by 20% and buy
more boats"
-Fisherman: "Why would I want to do that?"
Rich man: "By raising your prices you can afford to buy more
boats, and one boat catches only this much fish in this time,
correct?"
-Fisherman: "I guess you are right, with one boat you have
ability to catch only this much fish, but where are you going
with all this? I don't understand."
Rich man: "You buy more boats, hire men to catch fish for you,
and before you know it you have a whole fleet of fishing boats!"
-Fisherman: "But why would I want that?"
Rich man: "That way you can become financially free & rich,
without spending your own time to fishing, but managing your
business. Being the big boss, just like Ii am!"
-Fisherman: "Aaah, now I understand! That's absolutely
brilliant! Thank You!"
This is an exaggerated example, but you get the idea, yes?
Simple fisherman wasn't used to thinking like a successful
person, so he didn't understand what the rich man told him,
something that was very simple for the rich man. So, you see the
difference? Now you are thinking that you aren't as intellect &
brilliant as the rich man in this example, am I right? Well you
are wrong! It's just the difference how people think, how they
try to find solutions, the questions they ask from themselves!
Don't go around saying that you are stupid, poor or anything
else like that, that just makes your subconscious believe more
that you are stupid or poor. Instead, when you make a mistake,
and are about to call yourself stupid, instead ask yourself "How
can I do this fast & efficiently? How can I accomplish this?
What can I do different next time?" It makes your mind think
about it from whole different perspective, and results are bound
to come up, and your whole view of the world will change!
Another thing you have to do is to take responsibility over
your life; it's you alone who is responsible for your life, so
take the responsibility! Another thing you should do, is
actually spend time figuring out your dreams & goals, write them
down, and draw up a schedule. You should daydream frequently
about your dream and how you achieve it!
It prepares your mind for the situations to come; it's like
preplanning for situations to come, coming up with "action plans
for possible scenarios" so to speak. This, for example, is what
athletes do constantly! Now, when you dream about achieving your
goals, make it a big, colorful image in your head, right in
front of you, and make it have sounds and clearer and clearer,
that reinforces your positive thinking! Now, when you think bad
things about yourself, or bad things happen to you: Make them
black & white, small, no colors, blurry, then blow those
pictures up in your mind! Now you are asking what the hell am I
talking about here, right? Nope, this is not bullshit, but
instead Neuro-Linguistic Programming, look it up on google! It's
a kind of self-hypnosis, and very efficient to change your life!
It all becomes within yourself, and now I've given you the keys
to success!
More on the topic, I recommend you read Paul McKenna's "Change
your life in 7 days", it's a brilliant book teaching you the
basics of NLP and becoming successful. I also recommend you to
get books from Napoleon Hill about becoming successful.
Remember, it's not what you know, it's what you DO that changes
your life!
