Billy Florence - Long Term Vision On Success

One of the biggest mistakes of entrepreneurs is they think to short term. Long term vision is a huge key to success for entrepreneurs. It is important to handle the day to day things. You have to focus on the important priorities right in front of you but you have to also be thinking further down the road.

Many times we don't see any results from our efforts or at least not right away. It can be hard to measure our results sometimes especially in the beginning. I like to think in terms of 5 years or more. If you have a meeting, it may not seem like much happened. You may not feel there were any "real" results from that meeting. But 5 years down the road you may look back and see just how big that meeting was. You never really know in the short term. So if you desire to be a successful entrepreneur, develop a 5 year view on things. And really you can think more long term than 5 years. But for most just thinking 5 years down the road would be an improvement.
