]]> Comment on Characteristics of an Entrepreneur by Kevin Ashcroft (@kevashcroft) http://theentrepreneurialexchangeblog.com/2012/05/17/characteristics-of-an-entrepreneur/#comment-155 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:34:51 +0000 http://theentrepreneurialexchangeblog.com/?p=396#comment-155 I would add that an entrepreneur has the skill and ability to identify good opportunities and is capable of taking advantage of them.

Taking action is another characteristic. I don’t believe there are any “real” original ideas. I believe thousands of us have the same ideas at the same time, the difference and excitement is when someone takes action on an idea and turns it in to something tangible.

]]> Comment on Entrepreneurship through the eyes of a 21 year old entrepreneur by salesskillsfornonsalespeople http://theentrepreneurialexchangeblog.com/2012/03/26/entrepreneurship-through-the-eyes-of-a-21-year-old-entrepreneur/#comment-123 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 07:33:13 +0000 http://theentrepreneurialexchangeblog.com/?p=322#comment-123 Great work Nick, I look forward to hearing more about your business endeavours and I hope that the blog will inspire other young people to start businesses.

I like what you say about creating your own experiences. I recognised that the longer I spent in the corporate workplace the less likely I would be to take the leap of faith and start out on my own. Much like yourself this is the best time in my life to have a shot, weven if it doesn’t pan out I have another 40 years in my career!
