What Inspires You To Be An Entrepreneur

15 years ago

It's not just about the money. It's also about listening to a different piper's tune. It's about wanting to do something very different from the mainstream. I have grandiose dreams of being able to inspire a lot of other would-be entrepreneurs out there to take the leap of faith and begin their own ventures. Directly or indirectly I have always wanted to promote entrepreneurship, because that's what pumps up the economy, the pursuit of the creation of wealth. It creates opportunities for financial empowerment of all sectors of society, and it helps create a shared goal and shared vision of what a country should strive to achieve.

Thanks

My inspiration to be an online entrepreneur are the online success stories that I heard while I continuously learn what I can about internet marketing.

What inspires me to be an Entrepreneur is that I want to leave a positive legacy. In addition, I love being my own boss and living a lifestyle of total financial and personal freedom.

It was never about money for me and making tons of it.

It has always been and still is working for myself and not anyone else.

That is my biggest motivation.

Thanks

My wife is Austrian and we currently live in Bali, Indonesia. Right now, we are visiting my family with our 1 year old daughter in the U.S. for 2.5 months.

This is only possible because I run my own internet businesses. I can do my few hours daily work from anywhere.

I look around and see my friends tied to hourly jobs and know that I made the right choice.

Thanks

Financial freedom, more time to do what really like and to sponsor more unfortunate children.

My desire to never, ever get a hellish job like the one I had before becoming an entrepreneur.

My desire to use my skills and talents in ways an employer can't, while controlling my own job description and having enormous job security in comparison to a "regular" job.

My desire to help others in any way possible -- helping them become entrepreneurs, giving them financial aid when possible, providing some sort of necessities of life... you name it. This includes my parents, for whom I will be partly responsible for providing with income during their retirement years, which are approaching scarily fast.

There are other factors, but these are some of the main ones.

Thanks

Because I hate my present stupid job and every stupid job I've had for the past 10 years. I do enjoy the idea of work, it gives me purpose. Sitting home all day watching soap operas and Jerry Springer like a few of my neighbors would make me as looney as they are.

Plus, I've always enjoyed positions where I'm given the ball and I run with it. That also hasn't occurred in the past 10 years, I'm not fond of being micro-managed.

My two sons - ages 3.5 and 2 years. I want to be available to them whenever they need me. I want to be home when they come home from school, take them to sports and help them with their homework rather than sending them to afterschool daycare.

Most of all, I want to have options. The option to go on vacation if I want. The option to send my kids to summer camp. The option to work part time if I want to continue my career. Or not work if I decide not to.
