interesting take on the entrepreneurial spirit. Most call it a bug, but he's named it.
But my entrepreneurial spirit has been different. I would say I discovered my entrepreneurial spirit. For me, it was always there I didn't have a name for it I just knew I like doing things differently. My very first summer job at 13 give me a strong dislike for working for other people. The next summer I realized I could make more money working less hours if I was my own boss. A few years later in a corporate setting, finding out the disparity between what I was paid vs what I was bringing in for the company was like adding insult to injury.
My point being, I was an entrepreneur before I knew what an entrepreneur was. I think most of us, it's something that has always been inside of us pushing us to branch out and do things on her own.
Excellent point! I guess those of us with the 'bug' or 'parasite' - whatever you want to call it - just march to the beat of a different drummer. We value freedom over security, charting our own path over following the beaten one...
