Entrepreneurial sins can extend beyond individual’s observation, however I can outlay few common false habits entrepreneurs share around the world that can slowly devastate their businesses, such as:

  • Taking possessed resources for granted.
  • Excluding daily reading practice.
  • Underestimating the power of constant schmoozing and networking.
  • Delaying important/urgent tasks consistently.
  • Allowing personal life issues to conquer mental prosperity.
  • Prioritize weekly tasks based on emotional trait instead of logic.
  • Not accepting loss as a possible outcome.
  • Lack of planning and strategy refining.
  • Party when you should be working.
  • Not taking notes as he/she goes.
  • Not being ablel to find the perfect life/work balance.

Despite of the common mistakes different entrepreneurs have in common, an entrepreneur has to evaluate and identify his/her own weaknesses and strengths every now and then sincerely. That would make a good practice that can evolve over time specially after comparing between previous evaluations by most current ones. Lastly, activities like watching TV and web surfing aren’t “bad” per se; these are rather tools that can turn over disadvantageously against an entrepreneur if he/she couldn’t control the ratio in which they utilize these tools for leisure purposes over self-lecturing and web searches relevant to their businesses.

 

Good Luck Fida.
