5 Stages of Being An Online Entrepreneur [Infographic]

So you know you want to be your own boss.

You know you want to be an Entrepreneur.

You know you want to create something bigger than yourself.

You know you want to change the world.

What you don’t know is how to get there. How do you get from that stage where you’re dreaming and fumbling and struggling to that point where can celebrate sweet success?

Success doesn’t happen over night. It takes work. That may be days and months for some, years for others.

But there’s a common path we all take. It’s a journey, a pilgrimage of sorts. Where we learn, we experiment and we learn some more.

Popular media only shows you success stories. It doesn’t tell you the years of effort that went into each “over night” success.

And because of that so many new business owners and entrepreneurs beat themselves up, for not having made it yet. They followed the formula, they did the courses… and yet things don’t look so bright.

For those of you still in the early phases of dreaming, of fumbling, I want you to hold on. I want you to know this is part of your journey. There are lessons to be learnt.

And you will move on – once you’ve learnt the lessons you need to. No sooner, no later.
