Do you think that dropping out of college to start a business is a risk? Are you a risk taker? Would you drop out of college to start a business? Bill Gates did. He dropped out of Harvard to start Microsoft, which became one of the most innovative companies ever. He's like many self-made billionaires and entrepreneurs; he is a risk-taker and an innovator (actually, that also describes many self-made millionaires).
Risk tolerance and innovation are just two of the personality characteristics of self-made billionaires. Here are more:
They are entrepreneurial
They "step up to the plate" when an opportunity arises
They see opportunity where nobody else does
They don't procrastinate, they "make it happen"
They are full of optimism
They accept mistakes because there is an opportunity to learn from failure
They enjoy success and thrive to achieve it
They appreciate their own personal success
They are motivated
They know how to invest
They make money doing things that they love
They practice time-management, meaning they don’t waste their time on meaningless tasks
They are influential and persuasive
They surround themselves with smart people
They have business sense
They are fearless
They are intelligent
Of course, these are just some of the common characteristics of self-made billionaires. Not all self-made billionaires carry these traits but all have an incredible desire to succeed and most could do it all over again if they lost it all.
