Learning To Be An Entrepreneur

Yesterday's generation went to college, got a degree and filed into corporate America. Toting briefcases and business suits from which they'd just taken the price tags off, graduates found one of two kinds of careers ~ white collar or blue collar work. Whites collar candidates took their places behind desks, while blue collar workers filed behind countertops. But today's generation has many more career choices to pursue. Network marketing, franchising and entreprenship are just some of the choices available for those who don't want to pursue a career in traditional corporate America. Is the choice of entreprenship for you?

I am in my 40s and I believe we have had the same entrepeneural choices as this generation the technology of today opens more doors. We were groomed to look to Corporate America as a means to a better life. Not to "Think Outside The Box" of conformity. Those of our generation who took the risk lived a life of freedom and a different level of stress. After working a traditional job I have chosen to work as an online entrepeneur. The ability to control my time and when I work is priceless.

Well said!" Sometimes you have to step out of the box to get where you want to be. We are living in a great time of entrepreneurs. We just have to step in faith!

I would prefer to run my own business rather than work.with running a business,you can learn a lot about yourself that you've never known before.you will learn how much of a risk taker you are.you will learn how to manage your time wisely.you will learn how to handle and manage people.you will not really be financially rich when you are working for someone else.with entrepreneurship you are working for yourself.
