One of the impediments to understanding the phenomenon of
entrepreneurship is the lack of integration of different assumptions, units
and levels of analysis that are implicit in its many conceptualizations.
This book bargains and opens a pathway to integration by considering
five strong chapters themed under theories and concepts and presenting
them as an authoritative selection of the most significant approach, that
seeks to boost the morale of entrepreneurs from each perspective. Key
reference to academics and policy makers were made to guide its
applications.
Over the past 17 years, I have nurtured, partnered, directed and led many
small to medium size businesses that had gone through several business
turbulences ranging from financial crises to appropriate skills and
management intelligence. I was successful in some of these businesses,
in others, I ignored basic principles and the businesses collapsed sadly.
Certainly, business is about being alert, applying rules, taking risk and
competing favorably to sustain it. Value must be added to the business
every day to cushion it into future treats. The zeal to continue pushing to
that ultimate height has made me not only stronger, but vigilant when
growing other businesses.
“The Entrepreneurial Mind” presents a blueprint that will enlighten
entrepreneurs to subscribe to success. Remember that, Entrepreneurs
can change the way we live and work. If successful, their revolutions
may improve our standard of living greatly. In short, in addition to
creating wealth from their entrepreneurial ventures, they also create
jobs and the conditions for a flourishing society. Your entrepreneurial
mind must be extraordinarily sharp to be called an entrepreneur.
Once you truly understand this, you will realise that it is not a case of IF,
but WHEN you will succeed. This will give you the same absolute belief
that all successful entrepreneurs started off with passion. If you don't
have any opportunities, you'll find them. If you don't have the skills,
you'll develop them. When you try and fail, you will learn and move
forward. Essentially the only thing that separates those who make it,
from those who don't, is how they deal with failure.
