What Keeps You from Dreaming Big?

Ask any child what he or she wants to be when they grow up, and you’re liable to get some pretty wild answers - at least to the average adult, they’d seem wild. Think about it. What if an eight year old Sam Walton had told his father he wanted to be the world’s largest retailer? What if a seven year old Yuri Gagarin had told his mother he wanted to be the first human in space? What if a five year old Barack Obama had told his kindergarten teacher he wanted to be President of the United States?

Do you have what it takes?

How does crushing debt make you feel? How do you react to rejection? Do you quit if you fail at a task? Do you like to work 18 hour days…forget vacations or days off? Would you work without getting paid?

If those scenarios sound discouraging to you, then chances are you aren't cut out to be an entrepreneur. On the other hand, if you didn't scare that easily, you just might have what it takes. Here are some questions that can help you further assess your aptitude.
