Is anyone keen to become an entrepreneur? Are you already running your business?

Do you think it is worth your time to spend here on mylot when you can actually be running multi-million dollar businesses out there? If you aren't making more money out there, ask yourself why aren't you doing it. I have tried many businesses before, but after I pounced upon mylot. I played with it for a while and most of the time, I am out there in the real world meeting people, networking and trying to make deals and businesses. Well, I haven't earned much to be a millionaire yet. But I know, I'm on my way there. For those who would ask me, "So how do I get started?" Personally, I'm interested in entrepreneurship and running businesses. For a start, I would suggest attend seminars or workshops of your interest. Network and talk to the people who attend the events. Exchange namecards and find out how each of you can add value to one another. Learn from those who have achieved what you wanted. As the saying goes, "The more value you add to others, the more value you add to yourself." That is why the rich get richer! Bill Gates gave the world an opportunity to communicate with others on the internet so freely, which led to ebay, google facebook and so much more opportunities. He added so much value to the people worldwide, thus this is the kind of value that he is receiving right now. Most importantly, in the past when everyone did not believe he could do it, he never gave up and continually pursue his passions. Just like Steve Jobs, he dropped out halfway from school to take up caligraphy lessons, that became the turning point in his life. I would just like to let everyone know. If you have a dream, work towards it to make it happen. Don't stop and never give up! Keep pursuing. Be strong!

I am really a business minded person but sad to say I have not graduated from a business course way back in college. I am still hoping to run my own business in the near future with God's help. Good luck and enjoy here at mylot.

Don't blame about not having graduated from a business course. Steve jobs dropped out of school. The point here is not to find or give yourself excuses, but instead to look for the goals in your life, look ahead, find your vision. How far you want to go and how far you want to get is all up to you. It's all in your mind. Good Luck!
