Why You Shouldnt Become an EntrepreneurHow many of us dream of being a big-shot CEO with all the pay and perks that go with the corner office? Or better still, starting and running our own company. Wouldn’t that be sweet?

Well, I hate to burst your dream bubble, but being an entrepreneur
isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Sure, if you’re cut out for it, maybe
you’ll survive the pressure and overcome the many challenges. But if
you’re not, and most of us aren’t, I wouldn’t quit my day job just yet.

Before we get into all those aforementioned challenges, I’d be remiss if I didn’t at least pay homage to the perceived benefits of becoming an entrepreneur:

  • Being your own boss and not having to kowtow to anyone;
  • Doing what you want, when you want;
  • Escape from the stress of corporate life;
  • A shorter and more personal feedback loop; and
  • The unique fulfillment that comes from building something from the ground up, more or less on your own.
