The entrepreneurial profile
From what we have discussed so far, we have emphasised that it is the entrepreneur who creates success.
Entrepreneurs do it differently.
So, you need to know, can I be my own boss?
Do I have what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur?
In order to do this, you will need to ask yourself difficult questions and give yourself very honest answers. Remember that there is no judgment here – this is all being done in an attempt to make YOU successful in your future enterprise.
A few of these difficult questions are:
• Do you understand what will be expected of you?
• Are you aware that most of your business success depends on your own efforts?
• Have you thought really clearly about the sacrifices that you will need to make and are you

Do you think that you will need this type of support? Why or why not?
• Will you be able to handle the many problems that go with owning your own business? Do you handle stress appropriately?
• How will you cope if your business is not successful? Do you have the outgoing, friendly kind of personality that will help you to cope with the obstacles and take on the challenges of long-term growth?
• Do you have the positive outlook and energy needed to carry on, during even the toughest times?
Take a look at yourself
To make sure that you have all the tools that you need to be successful in your own enterprise, we will now take a close look at your values, your personal preferences, your abilities and your life goals.
It is extremely important that you do not fool yourself (or lie to yourself) about your skills, what you can and cannot do well, what you want from life and where your strengths and weaknesses lie.
This self-knowledge is the starting point – if you get this right and know what you need to work on and where you are strong, your chances of success are far greater as your goals are likely to be more realistic.

For every job that you have, you will need to have a certain set of skills to be successful. For example, two people are looking to be hired, but only one person will actually get the job. The two people have near identical resumes but a few things make them different. While the first person was able to articulate his ideas when he was being interviewed, the second person could not. The first person was incredibly dedicated to getting the job while the second person was not. Last but not least, the first person was able to adapt to the fast moving paced job unlike the second person. In the end the first person got the job because of his dedication, flexibility, and communication skills. It would be extremely unbeneficial to go into a job without having, in my opinion, these most important set of skills. While there are several job skills that are essential to being successful, I strongly believe that being dedicated, adaptable, and have phenomenal communication skills are the most important.
While working or while looking for work there are certain skills sets that are universally important. No matter what job or career path you have chosen these skills make it easier to obtain your goals, whatever they may be.
It means the positive attitude against the business and strength and will to achieve success. A successful entrepreneur has to own certain qualities that would enable him to succeed in his business.
These are the skills I already have such as: communication; personal skills; motivational; creative and time management skills. These I have previously acquired will help me to be successful in my career. To know how far on the scale of these specific skills I will have to do a self-assessment. A self-assessment is a very important tool used by managers in all industry. Sometimes you can’t possibly remember what you have done and how to improve yourself and by assessing my own skills this will allow me to remember all of my personal achievements and personal disappointments. This is a form of feedback which requires the assessor to be completely honest to themselves and in order f...

Many people dream of becoming entrepreneurs someday. But it made me realize that there other factors that needs to be taken into consideration. We need to ask ourselves are we ready to take the challenge to the outside world. Not everyone have the vision, innovation and creativity to become an entrepreneur.

I am gratified to reflect on my Entrepreneurial Potential Self-Assessment. I have always enjoyed learning the concepts of running and managing a business. Personally, what I enjoy generally is implying these concepts in real life situations. Seeing the ‘real life’ effects are stimulating to me. I always saw myself running a stable/well- establish business; however, I never saw myself running my own business. For my part, I find that I do not have all the characteristics an entrepreneur should have. Therefore, the results are not surprising, but assuring of what my strengths and weaknesses are.
