What are the common misconceptions about entrepreneurship?
The desire for freedom, especially financial freedom and pursuit of happiness often make a lot of people loose interest in their 9-5 jobs, and they turn to entrepreneurship.

The desire for freedom, especially financial freedom and pursuit of happiness often make a lot of people loose interest in their 9-5 jobs, and they turn to entrepreneurship. Most times, when people decide to be entrepreneurs, they’ve seen someone close to them (either a friend or family member) who appears to be doing well in their personal business(es). Then, they decide to going to the one man business too. Unfortunately, most of the reasons that make people delve into entrepreneurship are just misunderstandings, mere misconceptions. Many people see entrepreneurship as an easy way to get rich, but often neglect the part of time dedication and effort before the business starts yielding. Entrepreneurs who are solely driven by profit are a lot more likely to fail. Entrepreneurs who do succeed are focused on adding value to the world; they want to make a difference in people’s lives by satisfying one or more of their innate needs. Another misconception is that entrepreneurs are their own bosses, hence they can do whatever they like. I’m sorry but this is is a lie. Entrepreneurs answer to a lot of people. Most times, you just see entrepreneurs at the surface, you don’t see the people funding their ideas. Bringing their ideas to life. They owe these set of investors the success of their business. The time you think entrepreneurs have, they put it back into their business. But y’all won’t see it because they’ve turned their brands into their hobby. That’s why when they work, they get so comfortable because they’re doing what they love. Not just anyone can become an entrepreneur, some people are not cut out for the tedious and risky path of entrepreneurship. That is why one should know one’s strength and stick to what’s best.

I’ve come to resonate with people when it comes to the matter of job they don’t enjoy doing , that is because I’ve been there. A lot of people do not like their work condition or even their job generally but still stay in the job. The major reason is the fact that employment is not buoyant, and with the influx of immigrants into the UK, it only makes the situation so unfavorable. Many people want to change their job but they lack the qualification or experience needed to seek better jobs out there. So, what if they leave their job, how they do they pay for their water bills? Their electricity, health, and so on. That is why instead of quitting the job they already have for a job they don’t have, they’d rather continue to maintain the position just to secure the wage they get from it.
