WHO IS AN ENTREPRENEUR
Have you ever struggle with your entrepreneurship? Do you
think you need to be a rocket scientist or have a brilliant idea to begin as an
entrepreneur ? Do you ever doubt that you could turn to be an entrepreneur?
You are not alone in your thoughts. Even great successful
entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs had at one time struggled with their
entrepreneurship and their insecurities. Many real examples are found in the
world who poured out their pain, grief, anger, bitterness, depression and
sorrow to the world. You are not the first to wrestle with it, nor will you be
the last.
Entrepreneurship is not complicated. We make it that way.
This is mainly due to our misappropriated pre-conception, value and false
belief to it. Everyone is gifted in some things. The real issue is whether we
really know our true inner self, passion and skill.
Before we tackle the art of entrepreneurship, let’s
define its true meaning. How would you define it? Here are very broad
definitions which can be found in the Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Entrepreneurship is the act
and art of being an entrepreneur or
one who undertakes innovations or introducing
new things, finance and business acumen in an effort to transform innovations
into economic goods. This may result in new organizations or
may be part of revitalizing mature organizations in
response to a perceived opportunity. The most obvious form of entrepreneurship
is that of starting new businesses (referred
as startup company); however, in recent years, the term has been
extended to include social and political forms of entrepreneurial activity.
Entrepreneurial activities are substantially different
depending on the type of organization and creativity involved. Entrepreneurship
ranges in scale from solo projects (even involving the entrepreneur only
part-time) to major undertakings creating many job opportunities. Many
"high value" entrepreneurial ventures seek venture capital or angel funding (seed money) in order
to raise capital to build the business.
Many kinds of organizations now exist to support would-be
entrepreneurs including specialized government agencies, business incubators, science parks, and
some NGOs. In more recent times, the term entrepreneurship has been
extended to include elements not related necessarily to business formation
activity such as conceptualizations of entrepreneurship as a specific mindset (see
also entrepreneurial mindset) resulting in entrepreneurial
initiatives e.g. in the form of social entrepreneurship, political entrepreneurship, or knowledge entrepreneurship have emerged.
With the latest evolution, it is rather clear and obvious
that you need certain specific mindset to be an entrepreneur so to speak. It is
also very interesting to note that the 'entrepreneur' and 'employee' mindsets
are very much different in term of its meaning and perspective, but one is not
necessarily better than the other. It boils down to each individual preference
and liking. Bear in mind that everyone is unique and gifted in one way or the
other.
Before we proceed further, we should seriously and
honestly ask ourselves whether we would want to be an entrepreneur being clear
and comfortable with our chosen definition and field of expertise.
The real attractive reward is that you would reap a
lot of freedom and would be able to live on your own terms?
If so, you are in the right place. I am about to
introduce you to a great good approach which will allow you to turn all
possibilities to be entrepreneur than you may have ever dreamed possible.
Here, I prescribed the digging deep tool that
got me so deeply rooted into the core of who I am, and what can make me
unshakable and unstoppable – the real and authentic me. This is critically
important for me to find out who I am really is, my passion and true purpose on
earth. One of the surest ways to ensure the healthy growth of the endeavour I
undertake is that I must truly enjoy what I am doing. Steve Jobs.
Through the aid of the above tool, I was able to uncover
those blockages, letting go and move through my life’s challenges to
organically create a life of passion, autonomy, authencity and discover my
purpose filled life.
One more distinction we need to understand deeply is
with regards to an 'employee mindset' and being an employee. Loads of
employees have entrepreneurial mentalities that make them such great workers
who understand their bosses' perspective. They work as if they work for
themselves and they tend to obtain job satisfaction through certain achievement
and fulfillment, so to speak.
However, for those with 'employee
mindset' usually less self-confidence and insecurity, that's why they want job
security much stronger than the earlier group. They want others to create job
for them and bestow it upon them. There's nothing wrong with having a job.
However, you must know where you truly belong to. This is to ensure that you
live life like you will never regret.
Once you discovered your passion, you must not let anyone
stop you from pursuing your dream. If you have not, continue to explore till
you find it. Don’t wait and stop. However, if you have, what are you waiting
for? Let’s get started.
