Reflecting: What is to be an entrepreneur? - Free Video
Can they all be entrepreneurs? Is to be an entrepreneur born or is done? What characteristics are had by an entrepreneur of someone who it is not? Who is entrepreneur and who not?
Innumerable definitions exist on this matter and everyone has opinions lightly different. But we, without being experts, dare to leave our point of view:
In any community or population there exists a certain percentage of persons, men or women, who show pronounced tendency and need to create its own business, to create work sources, to create products or new services or to improve the existing ones, to assure his economic independence instead of looking for work places as it usually makes it the common one of the persons.
Of this percentage of the population, a part takes in his interior this enthusiasm, passion or fire already of birth, to these persons there will not be way of making them understand that they look for an employment or are employed at dependency relation. They will fight untiringly up to reaching his intentions, his sleep. There do not exist books that could help them or motivate, live motivated themselves, if 100 times fall down, 100 times turn to raise and learn of every fall, of every defeat. It is more for them the defeat it does not exist, like either the impossible thing. There are the entrepreneurs and motivating ones for nature. They have educated them of a form or they would have finished other one with the same spirit and interior fire. It is like the one that was born with a perfect voice, or with the innate agility to be an ace of soccer or a big pianist.
Another percentage “aprendió ”, to be an entrepreneur, received from child the stimulus belong already to his parents or to a big teacher or teacher, to another entrepreneur who impressed it hard. The motivating and enterprising ones to which we were alluding in the previous paragraph impress and explain many persons by his life testimony.
Of the rest of the population who does not show this tendency or need generally it is said that “no is an enterprising ” nevertheless we think that every human being takes in his interior, more or less asleep, this force or vital energy necessary to transform in some moment in entrepreneur.
There exist persons' innumerable testimonies that they were thinking that they would never reach his sleep, which resigned to work places or works that they them were not satisfying and suddenly, an experience, a meeting, a word of breath, someone who trusted in them, anybody who impressed them, it motivated and inspired and the spark of the enterprising spirit burned in them.
Beyond that it does not have the necessary features of the personality to be an entrepreneur, there it can go so far as to be every person if it is proposed, or if it receives the necessary help to manage to wake up the interior force possibly asleep.
Many of these persons simply have not received the stimulus in the suitable moment, and as the time happens it is more and more difficult to make them understand that they can be the makers of their own destination if it is proposed.
Is here an interesting video to keep on reflecting on what is the enterprising spirit.
