Everyone wants security and at one time, a person's job gave him or
her that security -- but not anymore. When government jobs begin to lay
people off or force days off without pay, some may view this as the
writing on the wall. At one time having a government job meant security
and that you could retire on that job. With the economy, the way it is
today, entrepreneurialism may be the saving grace. There are people who
aren't waiting to get that notice; instead, many are leaving the
workforce to carve a piece of the entrepreneurial pie for themselves.
Owning your own business is risky and in fact, many people fail when starting an entrepreneur home based business.
Nevertheless, what entrepreneurs have in common is that they don't view
a failed business as a failure. They see it as an opportunity to get it
right the next time. A failed business teaches them not to place all of
their eggs in one basket. These people although few far and between,
won't stop until they are successful and that is what puts them above
the masses that quit after the first try. To jump in the pool of
entrepreneurialism, you must develop a no quit attitude. Partnering with
other entrepreneurs is also a good strategy for success.
At one
time, it was unheard of to start a business with less than $100. Now,
with the help of the Internet, you can do just that by starting a home
based business. In fact, many small cleaning companies have been started
for less and become empires in the cleaning industry. Content mills are
another example of using the internet to provide a product that is in
demand. These companies hire writers to provide web content to other
internet entrepreneurs who need it to help build traffic to their
website. At no better time could a person become a business owner with
their hobby. The resources are available thanks to the internet and the
small business administration. In addition, selling a product or someone
else's product has pushed individuals into successful business
ventures. It is a loop of entrepreneurialship that has been proven to
work.
Trying to be the biggest company is no longer the focus of
entrepreneurialism. Just being able to call your own shots and making
ends meet without punching a time clock, is what it is all about for
many people who take that leap of faith. The only characteristic that
sets rich people apart from poor people is their stick-to-itiveness and
possibly their refusal to work for someone else. Job security isn't what
it once was and entrepreneurialism is a chance at creating your own job
security. Your success greatly depends on how hard you are willing to
work. You won't ever fire yourself and you will have yours and your
family's best interest in mind at every decision-making meeting. If you
view entrepreneurialism as your way of never being able to be fired
than, you may have that entrepreneurial bug in you too.
