If you’re an entrepreneur, then you’ve heard a million reasons why not to start your business: it’s too risky, you could get into debt, you won’t sleep, you’ll run out of social life, and so on. But despite all these uncertainties, people are still attracted to the world of entrepreneurship.
But the most important thing is that people are still attracted to the entrepreneurial world.
Below we share some of the reasons why to undertake with your startup:

1. Free time. At first you’ll work harder than ever for less money. But if you do it right you’ll learn to master your schedule and soon you’ll be able to enjoy the freedom of being an entrepreneur.

2. A story to tell. When I tell someone I run my business, they always want to know what I do and how I do it. I get to tell the story and the best part is that I get to decide the chapters.

3. Pride.
When you build something successful, you have a great feeling. You had a vision, you were able to execute it, and you get the benefits of saying «I did it.»
