From Beverley Merriman at thoughtleader:

Being a young entrepreneur is stimulating and exciting.

Of course, you have to be a natural leader, a great problem solver and a competitive, ambitious, goal-oriented, innovative risk taker. You must have motivation to spare and a huge amount of energy to deal with change, pressure and people who will not always be supportive of your venture or business ideas.

And she quotes Steve Jobs:

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
