How bad do you want to enter the food truck industry? How bad do you want to be a food truck owner, an owner who runs his/her own kitchen and makes the recipes of his/her dreams?
If you want something bad enough, such as owning your own food truck business, then you have to take real action. No one said it was going to be easy, but you need to stop the dreaming act and actually do, for a food truck owner can’t be a dreamer alone … a food truck owner also has to be a doer.
With that in mind, if you want to join the food truck industry, then the three things below are going to help get you there.
3.) The Obvious One: Money
While money alone is not going to lead to you climbing to the top of the food truck industry — because you have to have a good business, great food, otherworldly customer service and so many other ingredients — it is going to lead to you purchasing a food truck. You have to have this ingredient if you plan on entering the mobile kitchen industry as an owner, but this you likely already know.

2.) A Positive Mindset
You can’t follow your dreams with a negative mindset. In fact, if you have a big dream in mind and you are a negative person, or hold negative mindsets, then you will get discouraged in no time, or stop following your dreams altogether because you simply don’t think they are achievable. A positive mindset is a must-have, and it’s non-negotiable, really.

1.) A Burning Desire To Succeed
If you want to become a food truck owner, then you have to really, really want it. In fact, it has to be the only thing you think about. Okay, okay, you don’t have to become that obsessed, but you do have to take action. Even if your steps are baby steps, you need to make steps toward your goal of becoming a food truck owner each and every day. You might not be able to enter the food truck industry tomorrow, next week or even next year, but you have to continue to move forward, and that is where a burning desire to succeed comes into play.
Thanks to this burning desire, you will never quit — you will continue to hustle until all of your goals and dreams come true.
You don’t have to shout it from the top of a mountain (or simply tell all of your friends and family on social media) to have a burning desire (unless you want to do those things, of course) — you just need to know in your mind you are going to achieve success, that you are going to become a food truck owner, and take steps every day to become what you want to be.
More likely than not, a lot of your free time will consist of you doing things for your future food truck, because that is the only thing you can think about, and it’s the only thing you want to be doing.
