Interesting discussion yesterday about entrepreneurship. My take is that entrepreneurship no longer has to do with whom you’re employed by. Entrepreneurship is about mindset – about seeing things as they could be rather than as they are and having the courage to push opportunities to make the ideas come to life. Doesn’t really matter if you’re employed by yourself or by someone else. Though, my firm belief is that an entrepreneurial mindset is crucial to succeed in today’s ever-changing world, and if you can’t nurture your entrepreneurial mind with your current employer, consider becoming your own boss.

Heard the other day that the three keys to growth are environment, education and entrepreneurship. I use to say the fastest way to change is to spend time with the right people, that’s environment to me. Committing to constant Beta means to always make progress, learn and improve – education. And continuously pushing opportunities and set off for Your Next Big Thing, that’s entrepreneurship.

Agree?

Going for Your Next Big Thing and take on some risk – you don’t know exactly what you’ll get, but you know you’ll learn and make progress each day. Or stay where you are and know exactly what you get – until someone going for their next big thing disrupts the conditions. Your choice.
