An accessible guide to handling the unforeseeable consequences of
becoming an entrepreneur in today and tomorrow's economy
The spirit of an entrepreneur is often characterized as one of unbridled
passion and a sense of fearlessness. But what about the consequences of
choosing to become an entrepreneur? The occupational hazards associated
with this endeavor range from maintaining focus, balancing work with
your personal life, and finding good partners to burnout and boredom.
Despite the abundance of entrepreneurial guides written, few focus on
the essential aspect of dealing with the unexpected personal and
professional costs of starting and financing a business. This new book
will help you answer these tough questions.
Engaging and informative, this book skillfully examines what usually
goes wrong on the road to entrepreneurship, revealing what business
owners regret and what you can do to address these issues. Along the
way, it provides an overview of the personality traits and qualities
that make success in entrepreneurship more likely, and also explores how
the weight of wearing the entrepreneurial hat can affect you.
- Covers the seven principal obstacles that can arise at any level in
the entrepreneurial game
- Filled with the valuable insights of an author who has experience as
an entrepreneur and as a corporate attorney representing hundreds of
entrepreneurs over his twenty-six year legal career
- Touches on issues associated with everything from the nerve-wrecking
start-up phase to the disenchanted later stages when success does not
necessarily guarantee personal or professional contentment
If you're looking for a better way to manage and minimize some of the
most prominent problems you'll face as an entrepreneur, look no further
than this book.
