Essential Traits: The Fire Inside

April 21, 2020

About This Episode

Are entrepreneurs born with the drive for success, or is it a product of their experience? How do driven business owners avoid the pitfalls of ego and self-reliance? What can entrepreneurs do to harness their internal drive and maximize their potential?

In this episode of the podcast Bill Allen sits down with real estate entrepreneur Jeremiah Johnson to discuss what separates a driven entrepreneur from the average person.

In his book Entrepreneurial Leap, Gino Wickman identifies six traits entrepreneurs must possess in order to succeed. Being driven is one of these traits… and it’s a word that could be used to describe Jeremiah for most of his life.

Jeremiah turned a career in medical sales into a full time real estate investing business, doing $1,000,000 in sales and over 100 transactions in his first year (and nearly doubling that in year two).
