When Vicky asked me to contribute to The Global Achievers Magazine about my perspective of what it means to be an Entrepreneur I thought of my Dad. During an era of where most people were job seekers, he created his own why as an Entrepreneur in the building construction industry.
As a child, I always had the desire to be an Entrepreneur, but my life didn’t start that way. I went to college and studied shorthand and typing. My plan was to develop my skills so that I would be the Personal Assistant to some high flying executive and see the world. I realized I didn’t have to be in that position. I eventually had my own PA and travelled around the world on my own. Having the opportunity to work in the areas of community relations, marketing, public relations, fashion and the seminar industry was exciting. However, my heart yearned to be an Entrepreneur. I allowed myself to be held back by the lack of money and skills.
