The 5 Key Qualities Needed to Succeed in Business

Why do some people succeed in business and others not and why are some exceptionally successful.

Some of it may be luck but there are common factors in successful business people that would seem to indicate otherwise.

It seems that great entrepreneurs have 5 key qualities that help them succeed in situations that others may fail...

1. Desire to succeed: Not having an employee 9 to 5 mentality. They want to go that extra mile to succeed and will do whatever it takes.
2. Positive mental attitude: Both towards themselves and their business. They see opportunities where others see obstacles, their cup is always half full and disappointments don't get them down. They look forwards, not backwards.
3. Commitment to hard work: They're not afraid of hard work and the commitment needed to succeed.
4. Patience: Rome wasn't built in a day and as well as being committed they have the patience to see the job through, taking it step by step.
5. Persistence: Challenges and problems will reveal themselves along the pay but the successful entrepreneur will persist with their ideas and not give up or change direction.
