Entrepreneur Wanna Be?

As I continue to venture into unknown world of internet, I come across some entrepreneurs to be….just like my humble self. Often, I asked them the very same question: “What’s the main motivation of them wanting to be Entrepreneur?”, or “What’s your aim for venturing into business, be it online business or brick and mortal traditional business model?”

As usual, and predictably, most of the answers are almost always the same: “Money!” (Which happen to be same as mine too…when I was just starting out to venture; Of course, I’m not earning big money at this moment yet;) Some even more specific:- Big House, Big Car, Private Club, Golf Membership, First Class….etc.

After wondering around for quite some time, and failed a few times, I believe that most entrepreneur wannabe didn’t make it thru because they’re not “Entrepreneur” in the very first instance. After gone thru the process, and still humbling around, I believed that “Entrepreneurs” are very special breed. The gate to their “kingdom” is well-guarded against the “Greedy” and “Get Rich Quick” schemes like those flooding the internet nowadays.

It’s very true that everyone want to be entrepreneur. From the south of the globe to the north, all are declaring to themselves: “I want to be Entrepreneur! I want to get whatever I aim for!” But, claiming so doesn’t make us an Entrepreneur. So, be extra careful and cautions before your quit your job and jump into this “Entrepreneur’s Pool” just because you want to get rich and get it quick.

• The Primary Goal
Do hear me now…money is not the primary goal of entrepreneur is all about. It’s neither “Power” nor “Influence” too. Those are more on “measure

of Success”. Those are of material scorecards. Yup, as you and I are well aware, this world is full of scorecards! Every time when you go for work, you have this scorecard, that scorecard….all kind of scorecards isn’t it?

At current moment, sometimes we’ll have the feeling that our whole business universe resolves around scorecards. Every single of those “Powerful” chairman, president, CEO, GM are having scorecards riding on their back isn’t it? Compare this to “Back Then” time where scorecards were a byproduct of wanting to get something done, and done it well.

Allow me to share one core point of what entrepreneur is about. It’s just a simple and most forgotten, a simple word: Freedom! Freedom to be your own self; get your head above the crowd; to own an idea and turn it into business; to seek excellence in your own definition. Yes! Isn’t that truly great?

• Money or Freedom?
Of course, if you finally succeed in making it happen, some other more powerful and muscular party may be taking over your business and start passing out scorecards. Even worse, you may start to forget that true fact that you are an Entrepreneur and now just become yet another “Scorecard Keeper”!

Think about that for a true moment. Isn’t that scenario exactly what has been happening to almost every single “Super” successful entrepreneurial business entity nowadays? If the answer is yes for you, and for me is yes, there is the much disturbing question of “Why is it end up that way?”

To what I believed (which may be and could be wrong), the answer is pretty clear: Money, and lots of money. Those become scorecard keeper were forced to forsake all things and belief that they

hold on strong to. They were forced to exchange their freedom for piece of gold; forced to start spinning their head for short term profit instead of the original belief of what should be right for the products, service, customers, and their people.

• Are we Doomed?
But what does it means to you and I? Are we doomed to follow the same trap? I truly hope not. You see, I also have a dream. A wishful dream that someday somehow where there will be a Wise Person with less greedy business mindset will begin to understand that a business’s value can’t simple be reflected in any financial statement. A wishful dream where company will start to be evaluated based on their products, innovations, services, and above all their employees. Where every employee could feel free to contribute ideas and to be an integrated part of the company’s initial entrepreneurial spirit originated from the founder. Oh well, what a dream of mine.

Is there a point to give a deep thought of here? I think there is: Never, never sell or swap your freedom for money. Never let those financial wizards con you into letting go your beliefs. If that means that end up you got to grow a little bit slower, so let it be. If that means that you just a little bit longer to “OWN” the world, then please hold on first!

So, my dear reader, is there a point and important note for you?
