I’d say one of the biggest misunderstanding people have concerning entrepreneurship is you don’t have a boss. Being your own boss is rather difficult. It seems like an easy thing but it actually takes quite a bit of self discipline to get out there and hit the road running. Plus you have other bosses, these are investors. Anybody who is willing to bring an investment into your idea and help it come to fruition wants to know the progress. There, you have customers. Let’s face it; entrepreneurs do not work for themselves. Customers are your bread and butter, and they are some of the most difficult bosses around. The good thing about your customers is you can choose them. At first as an entrepreneur it’s easy to try and please everyone but this doesn’t work – you’ll eventually realize that the money to be made is in niche markets with loyal customers who do not consume all your time. They buy, are pleased, and come back time and time again, and they tell others about you. It’s hard; but it is also rewarding. Having the ability to bring your own idea to fruition and to see the concept develop into an actual physical product is quite fulfilling.
