One skill that will help is self-discipline – the skill of resisting some urges and instead doing something different.
In relation to business, this means actually making cold calls even though you don’t want to; it means turning up on time even though it’s raining; it means paying your suppliers on time even though doing the books is boring – the list is endless.
It’s hard to run a business. It’s hard running a home and a life too, but these help us to develop self-discipline and if you have self-discipline then you already have a key business skill.
What if you don’t believe you have any self-discipline though? What if willpower is something you’re not sure you have?
Well finding self-discipline and willpower is a lot easier when you work in an industry you love – if you’re doing a job you enjoy then it’s not work is it? Who struggles to find the self-discipline to do what we want? So why not do what you want.
