The truth about opening your own business…

I think most people would say that I would be crazy to open a coffee shop down the street from a Starbucks. I think it all depends on whether or not I provided you with the VIP (very important person) treatment.  If my shop provided you with great coffee, tea, edibles and an amazing ambiance that included great Wi-Fi, I would be doing what Starbucks and every other coffee shop does. But if I remember your name and your order every time you came in or saved you the last of my red velvet cupcakes filled with cool whip and topped with dark chocolate that I know you love so much….I think you would choose to come to my coffee shop for that extra bit of attention and great service.  You would also come in because you would see that I am doing what I love.

What would the world be like without entrepreneurs?

The Entrepreneurial Spirit

What would the world be like without entrepreneurs?

So my day began with my iPod alarm and the smell of freshly brewed Starbucks coffee. I rushed to get ready and then jumped into my Ford Focus to get to work.  On the way there, my boss called me on my iPhone to ask if I would pick up some Dunkin Donuts for the morning meeting.

If Steve Jobs (Apple), Howard Schultz (Starbucks), Henry Ford (Ford Automobiles) and William Rosenberg (Dunkin Donuts) had not been entrepreneurs, my day would have started very differently. I am not alone when I say; many entrepreneurs have changed our lives when they stopped dreaming and put their visions into action.

Although owning your own business is the foundation of the American dream, polite society will tell you it is a risky adventure with a path full of failures. What they do not tell you is that this path will also allow you to fulfill your greatest passions and generate ideas that may change society forever.

Imagine if Steve Jobs never started Apple…

If you had the opportunity to answer this question again… “What do you want to do when you grow up?” How would you answer it, especially if you knew ahead of time you were going to make such a powerful impact on the world?

If you have an entrepreneur inside you wanting to get out, tell us!

Looking forward to hearing your stories… Continue reading..
