Developing an Entrepreneurial Culture

Fear is a paralyzing emotion that can limit and destroy goals, dreams and the energy to consider being an entrepreneur. The fear of failure cripples the individual to a point f not taking the necessary steps to try. Can you imagine the numerous ideas and innovation that goes untapped because fear overwhelmed and incapacitated the vision? In our culture today, many business owners suffer from the element of fear. Fear of taking the next step, fear of sharing information with others, fear of failing, and the list could go on and on.

Imagine the number of new businesses that can be birthed if the mind can be changed from “I can’t into I will”. Knowledge is power and it offers choices. If we educate our children at an early age to dream and seek the avenues to becoming a self-made, entrepreneurship will become the norm and not a last minute thought because you can’t find a job. Entrepreneurship has its own culture and to be successful, the mind must be transformed to think differently. This "mindset" should be instilled in our youth in an effort to foster greater relationships into the adult life. The focus is educating youth with concepts, ideas, and strategies needed to rationalize entrepreneurship by using practical, hands-on, and age appropriate learning activities that will prepare their minds for more than just a general 9 to 5 profession. This preparation in critical thinking, analysis prepares them for some of the obstacles and challenges faced with embracing the entrepreneurial path. Join us to discuss this topic. This can transform the world and establish strong recession proof economies.
