Here are some of the traits of successful entrepreneurs:

- Confidence. Successful entrepreneurs understand that big rewards come with big challenges. Entrepreneurs remain steadfast in their pursuit of success because they are confident in their ideas and their companies. Entrepreneurs stay focused on their goals and firmly believe in their ability to recover after a setback.

- Tenaciousness. Building a business often comes with failure. However, failure does not deter successful entrepreneurs. They stay focused on their goals, regardless of the challenges, and continue moving forward. Tenacious entrepreneurs adapt and modify their plans when necessary instead of giving up after a failure.

- Self-motivation. Entrepreneurs cause change by taking an active role in life. They do not sit and wait for instructions; they go out and find the next task. Working tirelessly, entrepreneurs adapt well to new situations and maintain a strong drive toward their goals.
