Brad Sugars, a world-renowned business author and founder of his own international franchise with nearly 1,000
offices worldwide, identifies five different types or levels of entrepreneurial mindsets, patterns of thinking, and belief

They begin with the basic level of the employee – and an understanding that good employees often evolve into
great entrepreneurs but that to become an entrepreneur one has to first adopt a perspective and seek out a role above
and beyond that of an employee.
The employee sets goals mainly to impress others, to avoid confronting fears – including the fear of personal
freedom and success – and to conform to a comfort zone rather than pushing to learn more and gain new
experiences.
Because of self-imposed limitations, employees prefer to follow someone else’s game plan, and they lack the
desire to become a self-motivated and self-reliant entrepreneur.
They focus primarily on personal security and their emotional motivation derives from a fear of insecurity and a
desire to be within the comfort zone of a secure situation.
