Entrepreneurship

“There’s lots of bad reasons to start a company. But there’s only one good, legitimate reason, and I think you know what it is: it’s to change the world.” - Phil Libin, CEO of Evernote.

Entrepreneur + Capital = Products + Customers = Business

"An entrepreneur is someone who seeks to profitably solve a problem that the world has, in exchange for enough monetary compensation to achieve their dreams. [It doesn't] mean you won't read a book or work for a boss ever again. The most successful entrepreneurs spend time studying others' successes — what are their processes and daily methods, and how can I apply those principles to my own life and business?" – Clay Clark, CEO of Thrive15

"To me, entrepreneurship is creating something, nurturing and leading it. It is a labor of love, guts and hard work. There is more to it, and you will grow more than you could ever imagine. But it is not easy, and the road can be windy!" – Rosie Pope, founder of Rosie Pope Maternity

"Entrepreneurship is all about embracing challenges. When you're building something from the ground up, you need to get into the weeds and problem solve. All the weed whacking often allows you to better hone in on a better big-picture strategy — why did this happen? How do I solve it? How do smarter people than me solve it? With a young company, when you experience a new challenge, it's usually a growing pain. So while it can be difficult to get through, it's for the best possible reason — your company is getting bigger!" – Jennie Ripps, CEO of Owl's Brew
