3 unspoken challenges of running a startup
As an entrepreneur, setting priorities can be difficult with all of the tasks on your plate, writes Emily Motayed, co-founder of Havenly. Also, the uncertainties involved with running a new company can be stressful, and no matter how strongly you believe in your idea, other people won't necessarily understand why it's important to you.

Why "makers" stay ahead of "takers"
Your success might depend on whether you're a "maker" or a "taker," Geoffrey James writes. Makers "know they'll succeed and don't care whether others believe in them or not," while takers "draw upon others for their motivation and constantly worry what others will think," he writes. Also, makers focus on their own behavior instead of what others are doing, they show gratitude and they take responsibility for fixing problems.

Is failure a setback or clarifying moment?
Self-made millionaires tend to have a different outlook on failure than middle-class individuals do, according to Lewis Schiff, author of "Business Brilliant." High-net-worth individuals were much more likely to say that failure had allowed them to better understand their strengths, according to a 2009 survey. "Failure is a learning tool, not a source of shame," Schiff said. NJBIZ (New Jersey) (7/25)
