    I urge you to give it a try at the right time & let me be frank, its not easy (& never going to be easy) being an entrepreneur cos of the unique challenges and enduring lessons inherent in the entrepreneurial journey. So make up you mind and give it a try someday.

    Thank you CFA for doing justice to the subject matter in a very simple & thought provoking form, I know I a born entrepreneur but no courage to break out yet

    I would say made. If you look at some of the most successful entrepreneurs like richard branson, his parents constantly set him difficult challeneges – which helped make him competitive & hardworking.

      Good opinion but how do you regard a Bill Gates who struck out on his own in a most unusual way?

    The global art world is enthralled. The abiding fascination with China's modish new art has now spread to its south-western neighbour, with international dealers and curators flocking in to discover talent.

    I think entrepeneurs are both born and made. I don't think there is a standard formula. I would have never considered myself an entrepreneur until one day someone inspired me to take a chance and I never looked back. However, that person, was a definite born entrepreneur. That is the exciting thing about being alive, you have the ability to adapt, change, grow and forge forward in new directions.

    I can't agree any less, you are on target, sometimes we just need a little push in life for the true entrepreneurs in us to manifest. Thanks Sheri for stopping by; I love your blog and what you are doing.

    I think that is true to say that Entrepreneurs have developed a mindset that sets them apart from the average person.

    Yes I agree with you on that. But its funny that quite number of people have a developed mindset but no guts to stick to their entrepreneurial dreams.

      Well I guess this explains why someone like Steve Jobs became wildly successful :)

      Thank you Samina for liking this page – I hope you found time to share it?

      Is there really any thing like natural born entrepreneur or vice-versa? I’d say that there are people who certainly fall on either or both side of the divide. The differentiating factor is the fact that they are focused, determined, dedicated etc. This is what makes the difference.

      Let me assure you that every single you know or have heard of, have gone through this sort of state at one point or the other. I have also and I have not given up, so don’t give up.

      Keep on pushing on and maybe you should consider bring in more experienced hand into the biz as a part owner.
