Entrepreneurship is not a bed of roses, but it's a good way to go. Entrepreneurs take risks as it allows them to distinguish themselves from their competitors. In the competitive business environment that exists today, those who are willing to risk position themselves as leaders, while others get left behind. The success one sees is a result of the risk one took. Whether it's entrepreneurship or a secure job, just falling in love with the process, not the end result.
Most successful entrepreneurs are those who are very brave in taking big risks...
Although I've never heard of a successful entrepreneur having a cat mentality, they always play with big risks. I agree that whatever business or work you do, still enjoy it with a sincere heart, no coercion because success never comes from a
stone heart.
Being an entrepreneur means that you must be able to assess the risk of your business however it doesn't mean that an entrepreneur must taks a high or big risk. You can still be a successful entrepreneur by running low risk business such as business that are on demand to avoid loses.
Still, what's important on being an entrepreneur is management to your business which is the complicated part. Which is why most people will always, that they left the 8 hours every 5 days of their just to work 24/7. You might have control over your time however you must be ready to a lot on your business if needed to.
