The Real Entrepreneurial Spirit

I’ve seen this “Caine’s Arcade” video going viral but never bother to play it, cause I’m not a video-person, I would rather read than watch. Until I read a thoughtful article on ZURB {link} and saw this video in it.

As I watched the video, the tears of joy are literally flowing, seriously so touched and happy for the little kid entrepreneurial spirit.

As I mentioned in my previous post – problems with entrepreneurs wannabe – passion should come first, not fortune. As you have a passion in thing that you just started, for example briefcases for men, you won’t get discouraged easily with peers’ disbelief or when there is no customers.

To quote ZURB:

For Caine, it was never about the fame, fortune or glory. It was about the sheer pleasure of doing it, for solving problems and building something that people would be able to use. But isn’t that what true entrepreneurialism is all about, no matter what the age?
