Do you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur?

 Independence. A search for freedom and independence is the driving force behind many businesspeople.

Personal Fulfillment. For many people, owning a business is a genuinely fulfilling experience, one that lifetime employees never know.

Lifestyle Change. Many people find that while they can make a good income working for other people, they are missing some of life's precious moments. With the flexibility of small business ownership, you can take time to stop and smell
the roses.

Respect. Successful small business owners are respected, both by themselves and their peers.

Money. You can get rich in a small business, or at least do very well financially. Most entrepreneurs don't get wealthy, but some do. If money your motivator, admit it.

Power. When it is your business, you can have your employees do it your way. There is a little Ghengis Khan in us all, so don't be surprised fi power is one of your goals. If it is, think about how to use this goal in a constructive way.

Right Livelihood. From natural foods to solar power to many types of service businesses, a great many cause-driven small businesses have done very well by doing good.
