國外成功人士 James Altucher 在美國科技博客TechCrunch發(fā)文如何才能成為一個優(yōu)秀的企業(yè)家，How To Be The Best Entrepreneur In The World，核心要點如下幾個方面，經驗，自我分析…等。

        James Altucher 是一個投資人，程序員，作家，企業(yè)家。作為投資者，管理著一個投資基金，并且還寫了6本書。以下是部分英文：

•     Experience.    

•         The Beatles would never have gotten good if they just read books about music. Tiger Woods started swinging the club (i?m being literal) when he was three, etc. If you want to be an entrepreneur, start coming up with ideas now, ideas that are doable with limited resources. Start doing them, start selling them to customers, investors, acquirers. Just start.

•     Self-analysis.    

•         Thinking about what you are doing and coming to logical conclusions about how to be better. For instance, in poker, reviewing the hands you played that day and thinking of ways you could?ve played them differently.

•     Tutor/Mentor.    

•         Every great chess player has had a teacher. I don?t really think there are any exceptions to this. That probably goes for most games, sports, or anything that?s dif?cult to get good at (race car driving, etc). Most entrepreneurs I know have had mentors. For myself, I worked at a big corporation before I was an entrepreneur. The corporation: HBO / TIme Warner, is one of the best-run mega-corporations out there. The corporation itself was my business mentor (“corporations are people, my friend” – Mitt Romney). I?ve also spent a lot of time with one of the best unsung businessmen in history.

•     History.    

•         The Beatles clearly studied the music of Elvis. They probably also studied jazz from the 20s. My guess is they also studied the art of the fugue from Bach. Bobby Fischer once disappeared for a year (as a 13 year old) and studied every game played in the 1800s. When he resurfaced he had subtle improvements on obscure chess openings (the Latvian Gambit, for instance) that were last seen at high-level play in the 1800s. A great example of his knowledge of the history of chess is how he secured a draw in the last game of the Fischer-Spassky match when he transposed a complicated very modern Sicilian Defense into an old, drawish Scotch Gambit to secure the draw and win the match.

•     Talking.    

•         Associating with not just tutors but other serious students of the ?eld you are interested in is a good way to exchange ideas, synthesize the ideas you have about the ?eld you are in with the ideas you have, mate them, and come up with new ideas that neither of you would?ve thought on your own. The collaboration between Lennon and McCartney being a great example of this. The collaboration between Brin and Page being a modern entrepreneurial version of this. (See, “Why is Larry Page different than me and why didn?t Google buy my company?”)

•     Failure.    

•         Learning from your accidents (“I will no longer drive through a Stop sign”) catapults you through the learning curve very quickly. My kids often give up instantly when they lose at something. That?s ok. They just aren?t interested. But once you ?nd something where you pick yourself up and you say, “I have to do better next time.” Then you know you are onto something – a passion, a dream, the ?eld where you can become a grandmaster, the ?eld where you can become an entrepreneur. It?s a secret you learn about yourself and you can be privately proud that at last you have found the area where very few people will be able to compete. 99% of people give up after a failure in a ?eld. It?s the best ?lter that will tell you that you will eventually succeed. Then, once you fail and want to learn from it – go to #2 above – Self-Analysis, and begin anew.

•     Explore.  

•         How do you get to be a great computer scientist? Study biology. How do you get to be a great investor? Study music. Ideas mate with each other and then evolution will get rid of the deformed offspring and keep the offspring that quickly adapt to the new generation of trials. The only way to have those offspring in your hands is to fully explore brand new ?elds and make the connections, correlations, causations between the ?eld of your interest and the new ?eld you are studying. I would like to get good at meditation, for instance. What I have found recently is that studying quantum mechanics provides unbelievable insights that I would not have dreamed of. Or being a good daily blogger – I found that studying the insights of Charlie Brown has been immensely helpful.

•     Balance    

•         - In the post, the Nine Ways To Guarantee Success,  I list nine things that could get in the way of success for entrepreneurs but it really applies to any endeavor. Avoiding the nine obstacles of: sickness, doubt, vacillating, etc
