Welcome to my first blog. Today I would like to discuss some of my strengths that will help me start my own small business. I would also like to share some of my weaknesses that I have to work on to make me a stronger entrepreneur.
Lets start with strengths. Some on my strengths include that I am a positive person, that I have excellent communications skills and I manage my time productively. I feel it is very important to have a positive attitude while starting a business as there will be hard times and bumps in the road that may make you feel like quitting. But by having a positive attitude, this will help you get through the hard days. As most entrepreneurs have to deal with a clientele base business, strong communication skill is a key. This will help you with your clients and any situation, especially combined with a positive attitude. Lastly, time management is a huge strength you need to run your business and your life. By having this skill, you are able to plan your week, month and even year out.
My biggest weakness is that I am very nervous about starting this opportunity, which leads into another weakness; marketing myself. Though I am a positive person, I do feel I have a hard time promoting myself. Another weakness would be work place habits I have started that could hold me back as an entrepreneur.
These are just some of the strengths and weaknesses I have. What I have mentioned above is just what I believe will help me start my own business and succeed. You’re strengths will be different from mine and will help your business become successful. And to end off with a little bit of advice, don’t be afraid to work on your weakness to make you a better entrepreneur. That is what I hope to do.
