A good one! Well, Being trained in financial issues and having taken several seminars about sales and setting up business, I no doubt think of a couple of mentors, coaches and geniuses who have motivted thousands of people to give the first step in the seek of their purpose of life. Not only do I think in one person in specific. Most of those great proprietors of giant enterprises, had humble beginnings. They were surrounded by "limited" possibilities, and many had thought they wouldn't have had the courage to achieve their goals. Nonetheless,they didn't give up. They tightened their belts and started the quest. What they found was a sea of infinite possibilities through entrepreneurship. Now, those who doubted are just gazing how these brave entrepreneurs are shinning.
The thing that I admire the most about entrepreneurs is two things. One, their focus. Setting out is not easy. As it is challenging, the entrepreneur needs to have it clear that, if what he/she is about to start, this MUST be their dream, their passio; that something that sparks their spirit to put their talents in service of others. If the dream is real, if they are ABSOLUTELY sure that this is what they want to do, then they must have a high level of commitment and integrity. And two, consistence. The path, for sure, will be turbulent. The question here is: Despite the slips and falls; despite the deserts and storms; despite the rejections and disapointments, will you go on? If the answer is YES!, then, you've got what it is needed.
Nobody says being an entrepreneur will be easy, but I think it is the biggest demonstration of love a human being can give other humans. Because there's no other way to serve than putting your gifts, talents, skills and knowledge in service by helping others satisfy a necessity.
Would I want to be one? I am.
