All human beings are entrepreneurs. When we were in thecaves, we were all self-employed … finding our food, feeding ourselves. That'swhere human history began. As civilization came, we suppress it. We became"labor" because they stamped us, "You are labor." We forgot that we areentrepreneurs. – Muhamaad Yunus (Nobel Peace Prize winner and microfinancepioneer)

You were born an entrepreneur. This doesn't mean youwere born to start companies. In fact, most people shouldn't start companies.The long odds of success, combined with the constant emotional whiplash, makesstarting a business the right path for only some people.

All human are entrepreneurs not because they shouldstart companies but because the will to create is encoded in human DNA, and creationis the essence of entrepreneurship. To adapt to the challenges of professionallife today, we need to rediscover our entrepreneurial instincts and use them toforge new sorts of careers. Whether you're a lawyer or doctor or teacher orengineer or even a business owner, today you need to also think of yourself asan entrepreneur at the helm of at least one living, growing start-up venture:your career – the CEO of Me, Inc.

You future success depends on understanding anddeploying these entrepreneurial strategies. More broadly, society flourisheswhen people think entrepreneurially.
