Can everybody become an entrepreneur?

Think of this question for a moment. Some of you might quickly answer it that yes everyone can
be an entrepreneur. However, the answer is a bit more complicated than what you think. I think
anyone can be an entrepreneur and open up their own business, but the point is not everyone can
be succeeding in. As we studied in the class, being an entrepreneur is not summarized in what
you know or what your experiences are, but it is more about in what ways you tend to succeed.
Some entrepreneurs are trying to open up their businesses. They put all their knowledge and their
skills, but still they are not successful. So, is there any condition or prerequisite for doing
business successfully and becoming an entrepreneur? Some people believe that in order to be a
successful entrepreneur you need to have the education of it, or in other words it requires an
MBA. You should be rich or have a family that backs you. You need to be brilliant and be
perfect at business. While these points are important and assist you to be an entrepreneur, it is
not guaranteed that you will become a successful one. So, what demonstrates the success of an
entrepreneur? The only thing you need to have is enthusiasm and a desire to do the work. We
studied the truth in entrepreneurship. The first one said that entrepreneurship is not reserved for
startups. Entrepreneurs should open up their business with realistic expectations, and they should
have motivation. Moreover, being an entrepreneur is not the work of everyone. You need to be
passionate about your business. As an entrepreneur, you should use all of your skills. For being
an entrepreneur you need to have good networking because it will help you to find investors that
assist you in business. The network of an entrepreneur could also support the business and it will
attract new customers. In addition, a person can be an entrepreneur that has determination,
motivation, leadership skills, willingness to do the work, and willingness to take the risk. Anyone
can start a business, but we can notice just a few stays around. This is because they are incapable
to maintain the challenges they face during their work. Meanwhile, “entrepreneurship is a life
skill” is another truth about entrepreneurship. As an entrepreneur, first, you think about an idea,
and then take action toward it. Work of entrepreneurship is more skill of creativity because they
create opportunities and they open their minds to chances. Moreover, an entrepreneurial mindset
also plays an important role in the success of entrepreneurs. It is an ability that helps
entrepreneurs to take action in an uncertain situation, understand from letdown, and become
comfortable with some level of inconvenience. In other word, entrepreneurs should have the
ability of change their way of thinking so that they can grow their business. To add, being an
entrepreneur is not something a person born with; it is more about practice and experiences that a
person gets it. Entrepreneurship requires a lot of work and practice. To sum up, I can say that
anyone cannot be an entrepreneur. You should have some skills and characteristics so that be an
entrepreneur and start up your own business.
