Entrepreneurial Motivation

In this months Entrepreneur Magazine, Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki share some insights into the entrepreneurial mind.

"Entrepreneurs like to have control, which equals more flexibility, and that hasn’t changed. Very few entrepreneurs would welcome the opportunity to work for someone else even if it meant higher income. Entrepreneurs are motivated by independence as well as challenge, knowing they are ultimately responsible for themselves. Monetary success is certainly helpful, but it often becomes more of a score card than anything else.
It’s about motivation. Successful entrepreneurs will be doing what they love doing, otherwise they wouldn’t be doing it, nor would they be successful. Passion is absolutely necessary for success."
Donald Trump

"The entrepreneurs I talk to are more concerned about their purpose and mission. Making money is just a game to them. People are looking at the meaning of work now. There’s plenty of money."
Robert Kiyosaki
