“Life is not always a matter of holding good cards, but sometimes playing a poor hand well.” –Jack London, Author
Entrepreneurs are innovators who see an extra ordinary opportunity in an ordinary situation and are willing to take calculated risks of exploiting that opportunity. They are self confident and self reliant people with a strong desire of achievements. The ups and downs in the path of setting up and running their enterprise do not discourage them instead it motivates them to make extra efforts. The power to visualize an opportunity, develop it into a concept and later transform it into an enterprise, distinguishes an entrepreneur from the crowd.
