Another common word for an Entrepreneur is a Capitalist. Capitalists are very important in today’s business world and will continue to be for some time to come. The good thing about this world of entrepreneurship is that anyone can transform into being a big time entrepreneur in no time, even a 12 year old child can become one if He/She can meet a need in the society.

There are no requirements, qualifications and experience needed to start your own business, or if you already own one, there is no reason why you should not expand into a complementing or a new line of business, it’s all up to you. After all, business is learnt as you go along it’s actually more exciting and fun that way.

What is an entrepreneur?

Being an Entrepreneur is a challenging yet rewarding experience, that said, it is advisable that you prepare emotionally, financially and physically for the challenges ahead if and when you decide to branch out to do your thing.

Failure is one factor that holds people back, the last thing you want to associate with is failure, but then failure is a normal process of life and infact, it is good for people to fail because they learn new ways of doing things.  Click here to read my post on failure. Don’t forget that most outstanding entrepreneurs or business people have in one time or the other failed woefully, besides FEAR is False Evidence Appearing Real.

Take a look at your present situation and circumstances, if you are an employee, who is sick and tired of working for almost nothing, who is still in the rat race then you must begin to draw up a Plan B. A plan B for your life and your future and that of your family. Sometimes, you may assume that is all about working hard to earn a promotion that may be fine (if you are lucky), but you see, it gets to a point , that even if you work 24/7 and 365 days a year, there is no way that you can live a comfortable life particularly if inflation keeps rising. It’s a fact of life that people never maximize their potentials, they live their lives crying and complaining, yet not willing to make a move.

Simple Steps to know What is an entrepreneur?

These are very basic steps anyone can take whenever they are ready for the Entrepreneurial adventure.

1. Stop complaining and face reality.

2. Assess your present situation.

3. Make up your mind and get determined.

4. Identify the right business for you – start by reading any good book but I suggest the power of Plan B.

5. If you have no capital, then consider joining a Network Marketing opportunity. (Don’t assume it is bad because people have said so, carry out a personal research and my post on is there anything wrong with MLM? is a perfect place to start – Click here to read.

6. Stay focused and remain committed to your dream.

All the steps above points to one direction and that is; a firm decision to take your destiny into your hands. have the life that they want and wish for, unless they get out of the rat race and work for themselves as capitalist or invest some of their savings in networking that can set them for life.

Only you know your present financial situation, and only you can change your destiny. If you want to live a comfortable and enjoyable life, then you need to start deciding when and how you are going to attain that goal.

“Experience taught me a few things. One is to listen to your gut, no matter how good something sounds on paper. The second is that you’re generally better off sticking with what you know. And the third is that sometimes your best investments are the ones you don’t make.” — Donald Trump

Bear this in mind – being an Entrepreneur is the most assured way of retiring wealthy. Another assured way but often disputed is Network Marketing, the truth of the matter is that if you get a good company, work hard at it with a positive mindset then you have a good chance of becoming successful. That is why I have taken it upon myself to tell people about the Natureline opportunity . There are other ways no doubt but we will limit it to these two for this purpose. So if you want to succeed as an entrepreneur, then don’t be afraid to make that next move.
