Born to Hustle: The DNA of a Successful Business Owner
Some people are born with a silver spoon, while some others are born with a calculator in one hand, a to-do list in the other, and a mouth that can successfully sell the idea of eating grass to a lion. If you’ve ever stayed up past midnight balancing books, negotiating with suppliers, or convincing customers that your product is “literally” the best thing since sliced bread, congratulations—you’ve got the hustle gene. And no, it’s not in your jeans; it’s in your DNA.
At Market Monie, we know a thing or two about “hustle”. After all, we’re in the business of fueling dreams, from one business to another. So, let’s break down what it really means to be born to hustle. Spoiler alert: it’s not just about working hard; it’s about working smart, and staying resilient.
The Hustler’s Genome: Decoding the DNA
What makes a hustler? Is it the ability to sell ice to an Eskimo? Or the knack for turning every challenge into an opportunity? While scientists haven’t officially discovered the hustle gene (yet), we’re pretty sure it’s hiding somewhere. Here’s how we decode the DNA of a successful business owner:
– D is for Drive:
This is the kind of drive that makes you wake up at 5 a.m. even when your alarm clock is begging you to hit snooze. It’s the fire in your belly that keeps you going when the odds are stacked against you. Think of it as your internal generator—always on, always powering your business goals.
– N is for Nerves of Steel:
Let’s face it, running a business isn’t for the faint-hearted. You need nerves of steel to handle everything from disgruntled customers to supply chain hiccups. If you’ve ever smiled through a “this product is too expensive” complaint, you’ve got this trait in spades.
– A is for Adaptability:
In the world of business, change is the only constant. One day, you’re riding high; the next, you’re pivoting faster than a Lagos danfo driver in rush hour traffic. The best hustlers know how to adapt, innovate, and keep moving forward—no matter what.
“Scientists may not have found the hustle gene yet, but we are pretty sure it’s passed down through generations of market women, traders, roadside tailors, and plantain chip entrepreneurs.”
The Hustler’s Toolkit: What’s in Your Genes?

– Networking:
Your network is your net worth. And no, we’re not talking about your 5 Gig data plan. Attend events, connect with other entrepreneurs, and build relationships that can take your business to the next level.
– Mindset:
A hustler’s mindset is like plantain—it’s best when it’s fried (tested) but never burnt (defeated). Stay positive, stay focused, and remember: every setback is just a setup for a comeback.
The Hustle Never Stops
At the end of the day, being born to hustle isn’t just about making money; it’s about making a difference. It’s about creating something out of nothing, turning dreams into reality, and leaving a legacy that inspires others.
