Unfortunately most of these tales do not have a happy ending as a vast majority of small businesses never make it to the fifth year of existence. The reason?
Well there are a multitude, but one of the main reasons is the misunderstanding of what Entrepreneurship represents. Being an Entrepreneur is more than just having a good idea. It means being part leader, part manager, part salesman, part creative director all while bearing the stress of taking on multiple roles while attempting to achieve maximum profitability.
An Entrepreneur means transcending the typical "right brain" and "left brain" mentality and utilize the "whole mind", thus increasing the focus, productivity, and creativity necessary to achieve the goals an entrepreneur encounters on a daily basis.
Whether it is the attorney who wants to start her own firm, the plumber who chooses to go on his own, or the online merchant who decides that there is money to be made outside of EBay, the Entrepreneurial spirit might shine, but like a diamond, there are many facets, each more important than the last, and the proper usage of Whole Mind techniques is essential in transforming a diamond in the rough into a true jewel.
