The anti-entrepreneurship
Let us now focus on the characteristic features of people and societies that do not start with entrepreneurship or fail easily and which we will call anti-entrepreneurs.
Anti-entrepreneurship can be associated with:
- Pessimism: It is the attitude that always prevents us from starting, which makes the road more difficult without even having started to travel it. Safe work culture: On many occasions society teaches us to "receive orders" and to look for a permanent job, instead of creating a company and setting up your own initiatives. Lack of opportunity: Unfortunately, the lack of interest in what happens around people's surroundings makes them lose opportunities that can be worth gold. Lack of viable projects: Sometimes the non-viability of projects generates insurmountable obstacles for those who plan to do business. This is related to the inability to measure risks and opportunities well. Little knowledge of the environment and the market:There is nothing sadder than stopping entrepreneurship due to lack of knowledge and understanding of the world around us and the market that could be pursued. Lack of technical skills: The knowledge society requires technical people, specialized and who have basic knowledge in the Basic areas of business training. Lack of motivation: The tendency to abandon projects quickly is very common in Latin American societies. Mediocrity: Another very worrying trend in people is to do the work out of commitment and not out of conviction, which makes Quality standards are very low and prevent the creation of enterprising people. Distractions: A characteristic of the anti-entrepreneur is not focusing on his idea and becoming volatile and distracted. It is important to have a leisure time,but it should not be an excuse for not continuing to work.
It is not unique attitudes that prevent starting a business, nor are external problems. It is the combination of external and internal factors that blocks people's ability to undertake. "Breaking through these problems and moving on is the only way to be successful."
