As a successful entrepreneur you need to leverage your passions to avoid failures! As a successful entrepreneur loving what I’m doing, I often read blogs about my other passion in life – marathon running. In every single post, I always find one thing over and over again. Serious marathon training and running has a lot of similarities with serious entrepreneurship. The latest article on the subject, three different topics are undergoing an analysis: Long runs – Rushed training – Feeding and Energy Intake. We all have a favorite hobby or passion. And to leverage it with your entrepreneurship is a fascinating and productive exercise. The effort and training you need to dominate your favorite hobby or passion, also will serve you when starting a business as an independent entrepreneur. As you will notice very soon, to be a successful entrepreneur is very much about leveraging what you know. Later you will also leverage what you are going to learn. As my marathon running is teaching me a lot of useful things, it sounds wise if I take advantage of such experience. To leverage with my work as a successful entrepreneur becomes a logical consequence. It is amazing what I found out.
Long Runs – Long Working Sessions To Become A Successful Entrepreneur One of the most important parts of the training program for a serious marathon runner is the weekly long run. You don’t need to be a runner to understand that it will be hard to run the 26.2 miles (42km) on the race day without training the entire body to be accustomed to such workout. As an entrepreneur, you need to prepare yourself and your mentality of long working sessions. This is not an 8 to 5 job but a mission where the reward at the end will be the life of freedom every entrepreneur is dreaming of. In the same manner, as your long run days are scheduled, usually during the weekends, also the long working sessions have to be planned properly to fit into the rest of your life with family, friends and other social activities. If you skip the weekly long runs as a runner, you will for sure have problems to cross the finish line on the race day. If you ignore the important long working sessions as an entrepreneur, for sure, you will get into problems to achieve your business goals. As a successful entrepreneur, you can plan in advance when those long working sessions will take place. The coordination with family and the rest of your environment has to be part of the planning as well.
Rushed training – Business shortcuts As a marathon runner with several years of experience, I have seen so many times, people lining up in the starting blocks but only with a few weeks of previous training and preparation. It’s curious, but frequently I can identify these enthusiastic non-well-trained runners, running away as they were going to set a new world record.
