Topic: Ideas without action: An overview of a successful entrepreneur and a dreamer. - page 3. (Read 678 times)

Dreams that only become wishful thinking and no follow-up or action is taken, then it will not produce anything.

Just like people who analyze trades, do research, and everything is done, but in the end,
do not make any trades and there will be no profits or even losses.

Wishful thinking coupled with real action will result in an opportunity for progress,
even if it is a profit or loss that must have been trying to do in real terms.

Many of us have read or heard about Gogol's novel Dead Souls. One of the characters in the story, the landowner Manilov, dreamed of a bridge across the river, of trading on the bridge, and much more. And he dreamed all day long, and was so enthusiastic that he even forgot to eat. And he only dreamed - but did nothing. After all, dreams must have a real basis

Thank you for this article full of positive energy and valuable advice.
I will focus on this point because it is very important. Idea killers spread throughout all societies, and they are often, as you mentioned, the frustrated people very close to you, your family, friends, or your wife. If they are the frustrated type, they cause others’ frustration and failure.

Staying away from such people is necessary because they give you negative energy, cause you to fail, and destroy your dreams. But the biggest problem is if they are very close and you cannot stay away from them? What can you do in this situation?

Confidence is everything even if you have the best plan, roadmap, and money you will not reach the result and the success that you want to achieve if you don't have the confidence to make it happen, so many people fail because they they think that their plan is going to be a big failure,
We are enriching ourselves with knowledge on how to succeed to arm our confidence that we can make it happen.

So for me, confidence in all the characteristics you mentioned of a successful entrepreneur confidence is very important I have not known of a successful man who is not confident who realized their dream.

It is true that not everyone takes adequate and necessary steps towards the idea they have in other to make it work as planned, in every task ahead of us are also some requirements that are involved in them that makes the task deserves our relentless efforts to make it all happened as we wanted, some ideas only die along the way like smoke because they are just a mere dream that lack the further procedures towards it's realization, same also applies to every dreamers who have their own goals but refused to work on it, not until we are determined to offer the required sacrifice to see a dream come through, we may end having them only on an idea level.

I totally agree with this, fear of failure, is the main reason for us not too being too reckless. And in my opinion being reckless is one of the main reason people keep making bad decision. And with fear we tend to do things more carefully and research more diligently. But I guess this factors varies for every person, some people are just either lucky enough or so tough they can survive many failures and bad decisions.

I don't disagree with those points, but I just think they're far from a full list. One major thing it misses is that sometimes some people remain dreamers while others become entrepreneurs because of a major difference in finances and life circumstances.
Another important thing can be the economic climate of one's country, which is sometimes very hostile to new businesses and at other times very welcoming.
I'm sure that there are other reasons as well, and I think we should be more aware of the impact of inequality.

Laziness is a habit, this can be said to be a bad disease for warriors. this makes a fighter turn into a dreamer. What's more, if you add the habit of procrastinating, this is a very suitable combination for a fighter to become a loser who only talks big and empty.

talking big by telling stories or sharing your thoughts and ideas with your colleagues will make your ideas die, regardless of the reasons given to you, so that you will become pessimistic and just hoard your dreams. There is also an old saying that explains about sharing ideas with other people which says "if you have a wish, don't tell it to anyone. The more you tell it, the greater the chance of failure."
Yes, that's the danger of procrastinating, even trivial things will become big and confusing. like the words "little by little, over time it becomes a hill" is not a positive thing if it has the connotation of the habit of procrastinating, the longer you put off ideas, the greater your ideas and opportunities will be used by other people or even stolen because you tell them more often. your idea rather than implementing it

You have provided many explanations of facts and I very much agree. But this question will turn to you before others judge themselves for failing. I mean the question you will receive from other people is how far have you achieved success? and what is the ideal implementation that you can give us? or in the end you also only theorize while in reality you never start at all.

In the business world, building everything requires cooperation and complementing each other. Having an idea and being supported by the resource elements to achieve it will be easier. The idea will be considered successful if mutual cooperation between the idea owner and the executor in the field is built.

Sharing ideas with people who don't see past their nose or who are myopic in reason or have no optimistic tendencies is one way to sure kill an idea or business even after the implementation stages.

Fear is a common factor and it comes in many forms. Fear can cripple ambition and the issue with dreamers is that they expect things to go smoothly till the dream is achieved, without putting into consideration many a time that entertaining the fear of anything or obstacles require courage and the simple will to act in faith.

Sir, you explained it very simply but very right on target. I love it. And that is what happens or that is the problem that dreamers have. They don't actually trust themselves very well. Which makes them more pessimistic. In fact, to roll a large snowball you have to start by rolling a small snowball. That's what they forgot. I think they should first work on their own self-confidence. Because that's one of the sources of the problem.

I have an experience about this thing. Because In my university life, I have so much new ideas. Some of them are implemented as well. But my some of close friends were killed most of my ideas during that time. They are always saying this can not possible or always makes jokes about that.  End of the day our idea will be gone forever.

Of all the reasons, the one most experienced by someone is laziness and procrastination, where they will say that I will start tomorrow. But the next day, they didn't start their plans one by one and still said they would start tomorrow. And it happens so continuously that they don't start at all.

But for a prospective successful entrepreneur, they will not postpone it because the more they postpone it, the further away they will be from their dreams. They don't want that to happen and will try their best to make what they dream of come true. They are not afraid of failing to realize their plans because they know that failure and other reasons will not stop them from realizing their dreams.

So it is true that life is about risks and how they can overcome the risks. They must also be strong in facing challenges to make their dreams come true and continue to encourage themselves to remain focused on making their dreams come true.

All the points you convey are facts and realities that happen to many people who want to achieve their dreams. But to be honest, the two points above for me are the most difficult points to abandon and remove from my mindset. Because these two points are points that seem trivial but in fact have a very big influence in making all dreams come true. The thing is, I personally have experienced both points simultaneously, and the results had a negative impact on my progress in all areas. But after that I was able to get out of feeling lazy, like procrastinating work and not being confident. You could say that at that time I always asked the people closest to me for advice. Then at that time I knew how to overcome these two obstacles.

So the way to get out of these two obstacles can actually be said to be simple, but if it is to be implemented it is very difficult and requires great seriousness. Because from my personal experience, even though I know how to overcome it, I still have difficulty getting out of the obstacle zone. So the main key to the problems I experienced was Motivation and always pushing myself

Because if I feel lazy and always put off work, I always remember my biggest motivation and I always force myself to do the things I originally wanted to postpone. But even so, as I explained, even though you know the medicine, you can't get instant healing. So basically it takes a long process to be able to implement a new mindset and new habits.

The fear of failure is not only at the beginning, but in all stages. Whoever fears failure always puts failure before his eyes, and therefore any stage that does not go as desired, he begins to think that it is a failure and that I must stop. Fear of failure is opposed to recklessness and not calculating an alternative plan or investing entirely based on emotions. I see many of those who invest in alternative currencies who do not invest for any reason other than that they believe that their price will exceed Bitcoin one day, and this is more recklessness than fear of failure.

The journey to success certainly requires good ideas and we have to be able to carry them out because no matter how good the ideas we have without going through any process then these ideas are not useful for us, but I think to be able to realize the ideas we have we have to go through the existing process so that We achieve success from the ideas we have and we also have to be very confident in the ideas we are going to implement, lest when we run them they only run for a short time and we don't produce anything from them. It would be better for us to review first whether the idea we have is suitable to be implemented and if we experience problems in carrying it out we must be able to solve it well.

A lot of those things are neutralized when people are pushed into a corner to take action. I have had friends with great ideas, but they were in a job already and they did not want to leave the comfort of that security to take the next step to try out their innovative ideas.

The moment when you lose that job and you are forced to do something else, then people start exploring the unknown. A lot of successful people had to lose their job to start a new innovative business that later became successful. 

Don't wait until life push you to start your own business, go out there and do it.. 

Yes, those are great thoughts about positive issues here. Actually, I feel like life has countless stories, so there are things that have almost become a habit of forgetting. We think about success, and we need to think about the beginning and the journey with it, positivity will help reorient the process. But as a hypothesis about the lack of conviction in the idea, not being able to get what you want is something that I believe is fair here, we simply don't have the ability yet.

two issues i see when i talk to dreamers

1. they are usually the low income people who are used to not having any money at the end of the month.. the issue with this is they are at the end where they have nothing to lose and have every opportunity to gain. even if they start slow. like dedicate just $10 to buy a product they can sell for $30. then use that $30 to buy 3xproducts. and repeat until self sustainable to take an income whilst still selling

2. dreamers feel to start off they need to start big. meaning if they have no spare income of $thousands they think they cannot start a business/idea. however they are wrong. anyone can start small. you just have to prioritise and plan your way forward. it might be a longer path but its a safer path that can grow with less risk

The country where I live has a good old saying ''think positively to receive positivity''

Positivity makes us stronger, but perhaps @poodle63 also needs to look at the problem more simply when we all understand reality and should not do things beyond our ability to achieve target. I know that successful people need to go through different lessons of failure until they learn the lesson.

And IMO, positivity should be understood more through action, such as having a healthy lifestyle in life.
