The author needs to understand that being an entrepreneur is not about the result. Steve Jobs said in his bio "The reward is the Journey." It's the excitement of what's in store for the future.
- moocow01 15y agoAgreed - I think his fundamental 'flaw' may be be his MBA-ness meaning he is looking for the efficient, predictable, safe way to make money for the organization which in this case is himself. Its been said over and over but for the majority of people entrepreneurship is typically not the 'best' way to make money or going to make one materially wealthy beyond their wildest dreams - in most cases its probably going to be better for your spreadsheet if you just get a normal job. BUT a normal job 9 times out of 10 does not 'pay' anywhere close to the things one will get out of an entrepreneurial effort that is the right fit (meaning doing what your passionate about, living your life your way, etc.)
