Over the course of my five-year Rich Habits study, what I discovered was a clear divide in habits that successful entrepreneurs embraced and unsuccessful ones ignored. Successful entrepreneurs dream big and set goalsSuccessful entrepreneurs are dreamers who take massive action on their dreams. Unsuccessful entrepreneurs, on the other hand, lack focus or have vague ideas and are unable to commit to a plan of action. Successful entrepreneurs dedicate time every day to nurturing their network, calling clients, mentoring employees or connecting with mentors. Unsuccessful entrepreneurs either avoid risks altogether, are paralyzed by fear or take speculative risks, not doing the homework, like successful entrepreneurs do.
