Entrepreneurship can be scary. Nothing is set in stone and you either make it or you don't. There's no guarantee.
Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that approximately 20% of new businesses fail during the first two years of being open, 45% during the first five years, and 65% during the first 10 years. Only 25% of new businesses make it to 15 years or more.
With those odds, why do people even start a business? The odds are stacked against you right from the beginning.
In this book you will meet men and women who have been on the journey called "Entrepreneurship." They have gone through ups and downs, twists and turns, backs and forths, and have survived to tell the story. Some have experienced tragedies during the trek, but they made a commitment to keep going.
This is a must-read for anyone who has a dream, but is afraid to take that step into entrepreneurship. Join us as we share our individual stories of bravery with you and encourage you to keep moving forward!
As an entrepreneur, you oftentimes feel alone because there are a lot of people who "don't get you," but you have this desire and passion to help make this planet a better place, so you keep pushing forward in hopes of making it all work out.
