Top Ten Myths of Entrepreneurship

Part 1

Here are some of the myths I've come across in my

years in the entrepreneurial ring, and what I've learned

from it all.

Myth #1 – Own Business = Quick Money.

• Fact – There is no such thing as easy money

Starting your own business is not just about the profits. It is also about enjoying the process of having created something that is wholly yours.

Myth #2 – Entrepreneurs are born, not made.

• Fact – Success takes practice, time and dedication.

Focused thoughts and smart implementation are what you need to work the entrepreneurial field.

Myth #3 – You must be in the right place at the right time.

• Fact – Right where you are is the right place and time.

You make adjustments to your business, sometimes quite drastic changes – but you don't close up shop. When the going gets tough, change your game plan!

These first 3 myths all deal with scenarios that are “supposedly” out of our control – but isn't it amazing to think that it's all about what we do with what we are given that makes the difference?
