4. Self-Belief
 Many people will look at a successful person and see a big ego and think
that this superstar has a big ego because he/she is successful. In fact, most
successful people have a very high level of self-esteem before they achieve
success. They know in their hearts that they deserve success. The lack of
sufficient self-esteem and self-confidence is what inhibits many people in
their quest for success. Entrepreneurs (and other winners) are confident in
their ability to achieve their ideals.

5. Passion
 A powerful drive to create success, wealth, legacy or fame is the primary
motivator for most entrepreneurs. They are intensely passionate about what
they do, almost to the point of fanaticism. Their goals are set high and when
attained, are reset even higher. Money is not usually sought for its own sake,
but as way of keeping score.

6. Vision
 Most people wait for the right opportunity to present itself.
The true entrepreneur is always on the lookout for yet
another new opportunity. It is often just a matter of
perspective.

7. Risk-Taking
 The entrepreneur has a high tolerance for risk. The average person is afraid
of doing something in case they fail. The true entrepreneur knows that failing
to attempt something is a greater failure than trying and not succeeding. In
fact, they often don’t even realize that they are taking a risk. What others
may judge as a risky situation, entrepreneurs see as an opportunity for a
higher reward.
 Took the risk to invest in different types of business opportunities, manages
athletes such as Victor Cruz (American football) Robinson Cano (Baseball)

8. Persistence and hard work
 This is a big attribute. The obstacles that cause many people to quit are
minor setbacks for the true entrepreneur. Winners persist. Losers desist. It is
often that simple personality difference that separates the happy successful
person from the frustrated failure.

9. Leadership
 There are a lot of leaders that have
been able to lead their groups towards
great accomplishments yet these
milestones would not be achieved
without the help of every member of the
team. It is just only fair to provide a
definition of leadership that involves
those helping hands. This definition has
been emphasized by most modern
forms of businesses that focus more on
achieving results. Looking back to the
past generations, forms of leadership
have been changing

11. “I'm hungry for knowledge. The whole thing
is to learn every day, to get brighter and
brighter. That's what this world is about.
You look at someone like Gandhi, and he
glowed. Martin Luther King glowed.
Muhammad Ali glows. I think that's from
being bright all the time, and trying to be
brighter.”- Jay-Z

12. “I was forced to be an artist and a
CEO from the beginning, so I was
forced to be like a businessman
because when I was trying to get a
record deal, it was so hard to get a
record deal on my own that it was
either give up or create my own
company.”- Jay-Z
