  • Are you motivated by challenges?

If the answer to all or most of above questions is YES there is a high chance that you a more likely to be an entrepreneur than a 9-5 kind of a person.

Entrepreneurs are full of self-confidence. They are creative and think of solutions to the problems around them. They are passionate about their ideas and business and are willing to take financial and personal risks for it.

Entrepreneurs don’t just say they want to be entrepreneurs, they take action on it. They give their 100% to become successful. They are usually introverts or loners but at the same time they are also a people person and have no problem interacting with others.

Entrepreneurs do not like status-quo much. They are always looking to improve things and make them work more efficiently and smoothly rather than following rules blindly.

Most of all, an Entrepreneur is a fighter and doesn’t fear failure. They put their all into what they believe in, but if they fail, they accept it and move on to another idea. Entrepreneurs love challenges. It makes them work harder towards achieving their goals.
