Being an entrepreneur is exciting and potentially highly profitable, but you also have to be willing to take huge risks and learn from your mistakes.

You're not in this alone, though.

It's full of stressful situations, sure, but it's also chock full of rewards and a sense of accomplishment.

It's not as hard as it seems -- as long as you have some diligence, patience, and, of course, a good idea, you'll be your own boss sooner than you think!
