Why Entrepreneurship Takes Real Bravery

You are an entrepreneurship material if you are worried about taking a leap and going forward. It takes a lot of efforts to be an entrepreneur. Bravery is at the heart of an entrepreneur. An entrepreneur must be brave enough to take risks and understand that nothing can substitute experience. An entrepreneur is a person who sits down and makes plan without being worried of failure. He is a person who doesn’t stop when failures arrive, neither does he get overwhelmed when he succeeds at what he does. For an entrepreneur, it’s hard to know that you’re alone with your business idea-to wonder whether you’re doing the right thing or whether you’ve already failed and you just don’t know it yet.

An entrepreneur doesn’t create what’s hot now. He doesn’t care about what’s hot now. He who cares about what is going to be hot in the future is going to success and go on to become a successful entrepreneur. He who creates what will be hot years from now is the man of modern era. He is who a brave man is.

Bravery in entrepreneurship means believing in your own convictions when no one else does. When someone, at heart, believes that a thing is true and it actually becomes true, that is genius. Or to quote Reid Hoffman, ‘When the idea is big enough and edgy enough-it’s either madness or genius. What you are trying to figure out is which one.’

Oddball ideas lead to outsize success. Uber was an app developed for personal use. It was more of a vanity than venture but it proved to be a successful start-up. It was because of the bravery of the founder that he risked it to be made available to the market and that bravery paid off. There are three kinds of deals: ones everyone hates, the ones everybody loves and the ones they fight over. It is the last group that yields the results and is worth risking it for.

Brave entrepreneur is the one to whom big wins come. Some entrepreneurs are forever ready to take the world changing risks and fight against the popular and ongoing sentiment and apathy and be the one to build something great. Entrepreneurs willing to do stuff and prove everyone wrong are the brave hearts and they need to be saluted for trying to make the world a better place for living.
