by Dustin Seyler
Business Coach, W.S.
Community Action Team
Business Talk is giving
community members a ba-
sic understanding of the
process of opening a busi-
ness successfully, as well as
increasing knowledge of
ideal business practices.
Part 1:
It is crucial for any
potential businessperson
to have the correct
mindset and dedication
to work 8 hours plus, 7
days a week in order to
succeed.
Having a positive
mindset helps you get
through the difficult
times and create a con-
ducive atmosphere that
your employees will
thrive in.
You must be willing to
put in a 160 percent ef-
fort all the time and en-
sure those that work for
you are performing to the
best of their abilities.
A successful business
owner will always want to
have the best product or
service in order to retain
long-term customers and

uct or service that someone
would want to pay for.
A teacher has a mindset
that they are going to make
a difference in the students’
lives and help them blossom
into something better. A
businessperson must have
that similar mindset that
you are going to provide the
best and be the best.
You must feel like you are
going to do it better than the
competitor.
Dedication is also crucial

as many hours as it takes
to ensure success which
sometimes means you
sacrifice leisure.
It could also mean that
you will give up your
weekends and holidays,
provided the chance you
could make substantial
profits.
Dedication is a vital
component of a success-
ful business because typi-
cally those that spend the
most time working on the
business have more prof-
its and can adjust to the
demands of the custom-
ers quicker.
These are just two im-
portant concepts that a
successful business owner
must be able to master in
order to stand out from
the rest and create the
greatest chances of suc-
cess in the long run.
Mindset and dedica-
tion are not the only keys
to success but a strong
foundation in journey that
is entrepreneurship.
