The working class strives to be comfortable. They want to be comfortable in terms of physical, psychological, monetary, and emotional needs. Many in the working class achieve this goal at some point in their career.
Entrepreneurs learn early on that becoming a business owner is hard and the need to be comfortable can be devastating toward achieving their goals. Entrepreneurs learn to become comfortable even while operating in a state of uncertainty. Sure entrepreneurs want to be comfortable, but the great ones know there is a price to pay for success. They build up the mental toughness to endure temporary pain so they can reap the rewards of a successful business.
The working class avoids doing things they don’t like or find difficult. While entrepreneurs don’t like to do them either, they do them anyway for the good of the business. Entrepreneurs reject the working class’s cynicism that plagues the masses. They reject this cynicism because even the hint of a negative thought can undermine their confidence.
Do you seek to be comfortable or are you willing to pay the price for success?
