The Challenge of Entrepreneurship
The Entrepreneurial Journey is exciting; what can be more fulfilling than working for oneself and realizing ones dreams?
The challenge is, working for oneself involves working for everyone that you must work with: potential investors, potential clients, potential employees, partners. Realizing your dream means, convincing and selling your vision, to everyone; it means constantly aligning your dreams with everyone else’s.
The challenge is, you are in the incessant pursuit of finding money, resources and methods that you do not have.
The challenge is, you are expected to already be where you are aiming to go today, for people to support you, and you cannot get there but with their support.
The challenge is, you must have an answer to the chicken and egg problem.
The challenge is, you must be the CEO, the COO, the CFO, the CTO, the manager, the developer, the salesman, the marketing man, the support representative and the financier, all at the same time and be equally effective at all of them.
The challenge is, you do not know how long you have to journey to get to your destination.
Entrepreneurship calls for tremendous energy.
The challenge is, you can never have enough of it.
The challenge is, you must find it.
