    While scouring the web today I came across a great post on the mindset of entrepreneurs by Tonya Pruitt .  As an online entrepreneur I completely resonated with the points Tonya makes about developing a successful entrepreneur mindset.

    Having the Mindset of an entrepreneur is a radically different thought process, and it’s what separates successful entrepreneurs from those who aren’t so successful.

    When making the transition from employee to entrepreneur many of us face several obstacles because we are so accustomed to thinking like an employee.

    There are several "employee mindset" belief systems we carry over that help self-sabotage our online marketing success .  I have found at least 6 ways online entrepreneurs unconsciously self-sabotage their success.

    Building upon the concept of the online entrepreneur mindset, the  attributes of successful online entrepreneurs are not instantly developed. Changing certain beliefs about yourself and getting into new habits takes time.  In fact, developing an entrepreneurial mindset is a PROCESS.

    The inspiration I receive from blogging about entrepreneurship and mindset development comes from years of

    • personal growth and development (I have a few of my favorite resources listed under my Amazon favorites to the right)
    • attending dozens of live marketing and personal development seminars
    • purchasing several marketing courses, e-books, video tutorial etc.

    It is BECAUSE of my EXPERIENCES, I’ve developed a strong success mindset.

    As an online entrepreneur, you must continually seek ways to get out of your "comfort zone" and get past those mindset blocks in order to find your productivity groove.

    Sometimes we don’t know what those blocks are until someone points them out.  The cool thing is that once you get your eyes on Mindset Marketing, you will know which mindset blocks might be affecting your productivity in your business.

    it wasn’t until 4 or 5 months ago that I got past my a few big mindset blocks and started taking massive ction.

    See, I used to suffer from analysis paralysis syndrome.  Maybe you’ve heard of that? lol

    I studied the Internet marketing gurus’ marketing processes and web sites; I analyzed web copy, and learned list building strategies.  However, I was totally in the "Internet marketing information overload " phase.  I knew tons about online marketing, but I did nothing with that knowledge.

    I did nothing because I believed I had to be perfect and know EVERYTHING about online marketing before building an online presence .  I felt I needed to be an omniscient guru before going for it.  Tons of Internet marketers get sucked into this mode.  You may be one of them.

    Talk about mindset self-sabotage!

    Many of us have these mental blocks that keep us from being were we deserve to be.

    It wasn’t until I uncovered 6 myths to online entrepreneurship that I started seeing significant gains in my online success.

    Surprisingly enough before I became a blogger, I was more afraid of success than failure.

    Once I stopped feeling that I had to be an omniscient guru before I took action and started shattering my limiting beliefs about entrepreneurship, I finally began getting into my "online productivity groove."
