"Am I an Entrepreneur?"
Do you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur?
The following quiz allows you to compare yourself with successful self-made business people on some key traits and characteristics. Completing it will give you some insight into your own distinctive style.
You will not score equally high on all of the traits necessary for success. In fact, few real-life business starters would match up exactly with all of these idealized descriptions. Trusting your intuition, for example, is a characteristic many successful business people have. However, many equally successful business people have guided their businesses purely on facts.
In other words, we are all different and have distinctive ways of operating. This quiz can help you become more aware of your own distinctive style and where you might benefit by adjusting your style.

Entrepreneur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Entrepreneur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Entrepreneur is an import from the same French word. In its most general sense, it means a person who creates or starts a new project, opportunity, or venture.
Most commonly, the term entrepreneur applies to someone who establishes a new entity to offer a new or existing product or service into a new or existing market, whether for a profit or not-for-profit venture, a business entrepreneur. Business entrepreneurs often have strong beliefs about a market opportunity and are willing to accept a high level of personal, professional or financial risk to pursue that opportunity.
Research has demonstrated that there is such thing as an 'entrepreneurial type,' with certain characteristics (such as having a father or a mother who was an entrepreneur) linked to the probability of someone being an entrepreneur themselves. There is little good evidence, however, that entrepreneurial type is linked to ultimate success of an entrepeneurial venture."

Guts:
Guts means you must have an entrepreneurial instinct, which is an overwhelming desire to have your own business. You must have the guts and dedication to be completely devoted to your goal. Incidentally, devotion to your goal is much more likely if you have a love for your intended business. Life is too short to start a business that doesn't give you satisfaction and joy. And, through good times and bad times, you will stick with something you love.
