I don’t know who need to hear this but not all activities you do, makes you an entrepreneur……

If you are trying to make money in a field where 1 person out of 10000 make money you are not an entrepreneur. They are the best at what they do and you try to imitate them that is all.

My 11 years old son play hockey he is good but not a star ……. His dream is to play in the NHL one day……When he plays he is not creating a business…. even if he has a chance on 10000 to succeed …… he plays hockey.

You try to become a professional trader on forex or daytrade the stock market? You try to build an online store on facebook selling someone else’s shit. It is called a hobby not creating a business. And hobby can make some money, so if you like it why not…. But you are not an entrepreneur.

If you are in one of those network marketing shit, the person who created the thing is an entrepreneur…… you sell someone else shit…. You are a salesmen. Nothing wrong with that by the way. Just not the same label.

Please stop identifying yourself as an entrepreneur if you are not one…… it is annoying for the people who really took some risk to get where they are and are creating value on a day to day basis.

    It’s funny you said “you are a salesman” that’s what the CEO of the last company I worked at called himself. The guy founded an international oil/gas business the first time I ever met him he literally told me “I’m just a really good salesman”.
