Entrepreneurship – were you born with it?
ENTREPRENEURSHIP…WERE YOU BORN WITH IT?
Entrepreneurship…a term that is used a lot these days. What does it really mean? Are you born with with entrepreneurship or can you learn it? If you look in any bookstore or on the internet there are some many books and information regards this subject. So many self claimed Guru’s who tell you to follow a step by step program so you can succeed in any venture you are undertaking. Is this real entrepreneurship or just another attempt to sell you a “make feel good book”?
Entrepreneurship is actually defined as “the state of being an entrepreneur.” An entrepreneur is an individual who owns, organizes, and manages a business and, in so doing, assumes the risk of either making a profit or losing the investment. So what does it really take to be an entrepreneur? What does it take to have business success?
Choose to be a Winner
What comes up for me in relation to achieving success in your business and be an entrepreneur is do learn and experience for yourself. To throw yourself in the deep end, keep smiling on your way up and on the journey learn as much as you can in regards to personal development. Personal growth is really the key to any success you like to achieve, not just in your business. It is the continuous process of learning from your own failures and successes, stretching your brain every day. The concept of being a student of life is so liberating. This concept completely eliminates the fear factor or the “what if’s or the but’s”. A good friend of mine once said:”if chocolates and nut were if’s and but’s then Everyday would be Christmas”. I believe that every human being is an entrepreneur deep down inside. One of the true basics needs of human life is to grow mentally; this is where true happiness lies. It will then be a matter of choice. Are you choosing to be at the effect of your circumstances, are you happy to settle for less or will you be at cause, face your own fears and grow to unlimited heights.
