Entrepreneurs are made, not born

If someone tells you that entrepreneurs are born, not made, consider this:-

Entrepreneurs are always forged from the ore of experience, brought up from the depths of (often) a challenged upbringing.

Smelted in the furnace of burning desire,

Poured from a cauldron of seething ideas, into the mould of opportunity

Shaped by passion, and resistance to upbringing, culture and class 

Beaten against the anvil of life, by the hammer of rejection. 

Ground & polished by the criticism of others,

Sharpened on the whetstone of the marketplace, 

And finally, wielded with the strength, power & desire of purpose.

This is the true blade of precision & craftsmanship -each one created, through vision, an individual, and yet made in so many ways the same.
