business become very successful but it’s no doubt a worthwhile experience. Being successful as an entrepreneur has to do with a lot of factors and one has to be really hardworking and determined to learn from each failure.

With the present economic situation, and the jobless rate, many governments in the world are encouraging young people to go into businesses providing some few incentives to encourage them along the way.

There are various reasons to go into entrepreneurship:

1. The present change in industries: Now there is a global change in which things are being done in the world. With improvement in technology, not many hands are needed in most industries so there are layoffs and fewer people are employed to carry out task that can be easily done with machine. Also this can be seen as an advantage for an entrepreneur as things can be done easily and more clients and customers can be reached with improved technology.

2. Be your own boss: while this may sound pleasant, it comes with great responsibilities as the success of the company solely depends on your effort so no room from complacency on your part, but it give you the opportunity to plan your time as you deem fit and work on your personal goals and aspiration.

6. Security: this point is open to various interpretations, while some will consider steady monthly salaries as security, it should be noted that companies do fold up and cut staff and in this period of economic downturn, we have heard of more layoff than usual. So presently many feels that entrepreneurship is more secured than on paid salaries as you can control your finances and will not be in the dark on where the company is heading to and be afraid of being laid off at short notice.

7. You can achieve your dream: it’s a thing of fulfillment and achievement to attain a log time dream or aspiration. The joy of building and sustaining a business can give one a sense of fulfillment and achievement.
