7 Habits of Highly Wealthy Entrepreneurs
By Dave Lavinsky

In writing his book, "Rich Habits - The Daily Success Habits of Wealthy Individuals," author Thomas C. Corley studied the daily habits of hundreds of wealthy and poor people.

He defined wealthy people as those earning at least $160,000 annually and owning assets of at least $3.2 million. Conversely, he defined poor people as having an annual income below $30,000 and less than $5,000 in assets.

Read below to see the stark differences between the two groups.

1) Maintain a to-do list

81% of wealthy does this
9% of poor does this

Answer for successful entrepreneurs: Maintain a To Do List

2) Wake up 3+ hours before work

44% of wealthy does this
3% of poor does this

Answer for successful entrepreneurs: Most entrepreneurs pretty much work all the time, and clearly work more than the general 9-5 work day. I prefer highly organized work to a ton of work. But either way, you need to put in the hours to succeed as an entrepreneur.

3) Listen to audio books during commute

63% of wealthy does this
5% of poor does this

Answer for successful entrepreneurs: Educate yourself during your commute. EVERY single one of the video training products I offer has an audio download component so you can listen to them during your commute. Yes, I did this on purpose.

4) Network 5+ hours or more each month

79% of wealthy does this
16% of poor does this

Answer for successful entrepreneurs: Network more. Networking is a great way to meet great people who can become: investors, mentors, advisors, customers, employees, partners, etc. If you need more of any of these things, then network more.

5) Read 30+ minutes or more each day

88% of wealthy does this
2% of poor does this

Answer for successful entrepreneurs: Read at least 30 minutes each day. Here I’m probably preaching to the choir, since you’re reading this essay of mine - good job!

6) Live a healthy lifestyle

Eat less than 300 junk food calories per day

70% of wealthy does this
3% of poor does this

Exercise aerobically four days a week

76% of wealthy does this
23% of poor does this

Answer for successful entrepreneurs: Treat your body well. You need the physical and mental energy to succeed.

7) Use television smartly

Watch one hour or less of TV every day

67% of wealthy does this
23% of poor does this

Watch reality TV

6% of wealthy does this
78% of poor does this

Answer for successful entrepreneurs: Don’t watch too much television and when you do, don’t watch garbage.

The final, and most important habit for the world’s wealthiest entrepreneurs is that they have built and sold their companies. Of Americans with a net worth of $5 million or more, an overwhelming 80% of them are entrepreneurs who have sold their businesses.

So, in summary (and feel free to print this out):
1. Maintain a To Do list
2. Wake up early/work hard
3. Listen to audio books during your commute
4. Network more
5. Read 30+ minutes each day
6. Maintain a healthy lifestyle
7. Don’t watch too much (or garbage) television
8. Build a sellable business

For Zambian Companies

Do you have a challenging business proposition and are you looking for capital to start things up or to expand you business?

In that case our team and our network of investors might be of help. Within our network all kinds of investors are present. Some of them looking for start-ups with innovative ideas, others wanting to support established companies in their growth. Some of them who want to play an active supporting role and others who want to stay aloof.

​Pitching
To start with we will check if your plans are feasible, both commercially and financially and if your needs are well-substantiated. When approved we will introduce them amongst a large group of prospect investors by creating a brief intro-pitch presenting these plans. Any interested investors can ask for more information like a business plan, financial details, forecasts and a personal presentation/introduction. We will organize this for you and give you our full support. Whenever an investor wants to have a personal presentation we will first check with the various parties involved what is the best way to move forward; a presentation by our European team to start with or a presentation by the applicable entrepreneur and one of our staff members, either on site in Africa or in Europe.

Costs
Per request we will provide you with a detailed quotation, depending on the type of services you need from us and the total amount of investment needd. These can either include fixed fees and/or a percentage on the investment sum agreed upon.
