Now you must be seeing a lot of fake Entrepreneurs nowadays. It is good that there are entrepreneurs who are serious about their work and who wake up every day to what they love. But the thing is the people who now are coming to the entrepreneurship world they do not know what is the dark side of entrepreneurship. They all think that it is so easy to do it, and they would just have an idea, and then they would be an entrepreneur without anything else, just by having an idea. The point they are missing is Entrepreneurship is not EASY. You might hear a different opinion, but it is not. As to what Gary Vaynerchuck would say Ideas are SHIT, Execution is the game. From what I experienced so far, I know what it has been for me. So I wanted to do this quick one here just to let know the fake ones that you are in a wrong path. You should not be wasting your time if you are not aware of the dark side of Entrepreneurship.
As of today i.e. May 15, 2016, I am trying to be an entrepreneur; I am not a successful one. So you might ask that if I am not an entrepreneur how could I say the dark side of entrepreneurship if I am not one. I want to tell you that I started in 2014 and did not take Entrepreneurship seriously, and was discouraged when I did not see the results. But then I saw this video by Gary. After that, I decided that no matter what I am going to do this. To avoid any further mistakes by you, I want you to watch the video and understand the dark side of entrepreneurship from the very beginning so that you get to stick around and one day if you put in the efforts you will succeed.
If you want really to be a successful one then watch this video:
Now you understand very clearly that there is a dark side of entrepreneurship which is hard work and patience. Without these two even if you want to you can not become an entrepreneur. So here are some of the points that I would consider as the dark side of entrepreneurship.
Do you remember the last time you took a risk — something like taking leave for two weeks for vacation without your boss’ approval? Entrepreneurship is about confronting brutal realities of life where you have to take the risk on a daily basis. Always remember that:
It is scary to leave your job and follow your passion. I hear success stories of startups, but no one tells how many failures are buried under that success. I wanted to do this as a fellow hustler to let know about the dark side of entrepreneurship. I believe you should pass this message on to your circle. Wish you all the very best for your success.
