While browsing the net, catching up with my regular dose of news from different blog sites, I came across few things that I thought would be helping in motivating and encouraging us to get up, and acknowledge that already have what it takes to become the future entrepreneurs.
All we need to do is to take the necessary steps required. You know you’re a young entrepreneur when you start to look around in your classroom and think of ways your classmates can profit you in some way (not monetary necessarily).
You know you’re an entrepreneur when eating food or sleeping seems like a chore to you.
You know you're an entrepreneur when your enthusiasm keeps you awake at night and you start to think of ways to profit from insomnia.
You know you're an entrepreneur when...you work 16 hours a day for yourself, so you don't have to work 8 hours a day for someone else... You’re an entrepreneur when time freezes while you are doing what you feel passionate about. You forget that there's a thing called breakfast, lunch and dinner. And you forget what is sleeping, and you forget that everything else is there.
Everything, everyone, every situation becomes an opportunity You know you're an entrepreneur when you bore your mates with business ideas! You know you're an Entrepreneur when you sometimes lose sight of every other thing in your life that has value, and you know it, but you keep pushing because your drive to succeed is too strong and uncontrollable!
You know you're an entrepreneur when...your friends keeping asking if you've totally lost your mind...and you just smile. You know you're an entrepreneur when you cringe at the thought at ever having to be an employee again.
You know you’re an entrepreneur when you take your girlfriend out to dinner and try to give her financial advice. You know you’re an entrepreneur when you are making more while in college than your peers will when they graduate.

I hope this motivates us in our steps in becoming successful entrepreneurs.
The first requisite for success is to develop the ability to focus and apply your mental and physical energies to the problem at hand - without growing weary. Because such thinking is often difficult, there seems to be no limit to which some people will go to avoid the effort and labor that is associated with it- Thomas Edison
Known about this guy for a while now, though I’d share it with it, my hope is that this could somehow inspire you and lead to a path of self-realisation.
Ben Casnocha: Comcate Founder
Ben Casnocha started his entrepreneurial endeavors at the age of 12, while being in 6th grade. he’s now 21 and is the founder of ComCate, a company that provides tools to local governments to interact with their customers. In the following podcast Ben talks to Vic about his journey so far and where he is headed in the realms of entrepreneurship.
Ben is currently on a one year break before college, which he is utilizing to travel the world and write his book.
Ben is now, 21 and has 14 people working under him to assure that ComCate operates smoothly.
ComCate is now one of the leaders in software and IT support for government agencies all over the United States, and Ben shows no signs of slowing down. It’s scary to think just how far he might go after graduating college and being able to “really” focus some attention on his company.
It is amazing to think of what amotivated 12 year old can do.
He started the company based on a sixth grade technology class project when he was just 12 years of age while he attended the Town School for Boys, a popular school in San Francisco.
Since then, several dozen clients from small to mid-sized cities are ringing up annual revenue of around $750,000 for his company.
Hope you were inspired in some way, continue to read or listen to "Think and Grow rich" by Napoleon Hill.
Hello, you’re probably expecting me to post some next topic on the blog, but instead i will be sharing something very useful.
But while browsing the internet, I have stumbled across a great website that has some detailed information that most young and aspiring entrepreneurs might want some information about.
It covers students from college, university and also young adults, even those that are not planning to go to university.
Wow, i think this podcast is explosive, i totally love, i love it.
Here is the link. http://www.myobpod.com/podcasts/ptp/MYOB_2009-03-02.mp3
Let me know if it is helpful and discuss it in the group or my blog. Till next time. Start to discover "your hidden potential"
Ultimately, if you're not doing what you love, you're not going to be fulfilled. Sure, to make money, you have to be tough, you have to have some smarts and a little luck would help, but the bottom line is: You have to love what you do. Donald Trump
Many of you would be wondering if I am writing reviews on movies, don’t worry I am not, not at this moment at least, although I am a movie fanatic.
So you’re wondering, what the hell is there to learn from this movie. An open-minded person that has watched it will probably say, “Yes this movie is in a league of its own”, a whole different existence. Someone that went to the Cinema on a bad date would say yeah its aite.
I probably could not summarise or give you in-depth conclusion on this movie, maybe because I don’t know how to , or maybe I just can’t be bothered and I would rather focus on the part that touched me, or just maybe it wouldn't matter anyway because I think it will mean different things to different people.
I would say this is the kind of movie, you either love or don’t
I am not saying watching this movie makes you any smarter or wiser, or just because you watched it your kind of smarter that the rest of the world, or the people in the world, but if you truly appreciate it, it will affect you deeply, giving you a brutal realism and honesty, it has to be one of the most deeply moving movies I've seen in a long time, although till I finished watching it, I still dint know who Charlie Kaufman was or his previous projects, so it was of little surprise when I realised that he was the main man behind Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Adaptation, Being John Malkovich, All films that I truly admire.
Let’s me make it clear that this movie will not be for everyone, But if you're willing to go into it with an open mind, you might just find yourself amazed. Maybe, the reason why I like it so much is because it is full of the uncomfortable, brave truths about what it means to be human, and it goes places most movies don't dare to. It took me a night just to come up with my own conclusion on the movie.
In fact, this film made me uneasy because of how much everyone can relate to it.
The movie suggests that too many of us spend too much time trying to make sense of the world and not enough time living in it. We pull back in loneliness and fear when faced with things bigger than ourselves rather than turning to those who can actually help, namely the other human beings with whom we share our time on this planet.
The Movies goes everywhere from Illness, death, transience, love, relationships, passion, devotion, art, theatre, identity, hope, several topics touched in a painfully genuine way.
Or does this movie show that bits of life might slip away from you, or be taken from you, when you're not paying attention, “you tell me”.
Do we want things that only fit within our conventional range of pace, dialogue, limitations, and cinematography? Well you need to re-evaluate.
One Moment that left in admiration has to be when the preacher begins to talk, during the burial shot. It was unbelievable, that part summarised everything I needed to understand in this movie.
I have written that part word for word for your thoughts.
The Reverend Says:
Everything is more complicated than you think, you only see a tenth of what its true, they are a million little strings attached to every choice you make, and it can destroy your life, every time you choose.
But maybe you won’t know for 20 years and you may never ever trace it to its source, and you only get one chance to play it out. Just try and figure out your own divorce and they say there is no faith but there is, it is what you create.
Even though the world goes on for eons and eons, you are only here for a fraction of a fraction of second, Most of your time is spent being dead or not yet born.
But while alive, you wait in vein wasting years for a phone call or a letter, or a look from someone or something to make it all right but it never comes.
It seems to but it doesn’t really that why you spend your time in vague, regret or vague or hopes that something good will come along, something meaningful, to make you feel connected, to make you feel whole, something to make you feel loved.
And the truth is “I feel so angry”, the truth is I feel so fucking sad, the truth is
I felt so fucking hurt for so fucking long. And just for long, I have been pretending that I’m ok; just to get along, just for “I don’t know why, maybe because no-one wants to hear my mystery, because they have their own,
Well!
Fuck Everybody.
I hope this analysis, or the movie itself relates to you, gives answers to your questions, and also creates meaningfulness to your curiosities.
Do not hesitate to leave and thoughts relating to this post.
