My first blog post

So. This is my first post. I am kind of excited, because entrepreneurship is completely new to me. I started entertaining the though earlier this year, so I have A TON to learn. This week there has really only been one thought that has consumed my free time. What really stuck out to me this week is the idea that passion is the first ingredient in making a successful business. When I first thought about starting a company my thoughts were all about making money. “What can I do that will make me rich?” is a good representation of where my mind was when I first started thinking about starting a company. Honestly, I think I have a couple great ideas, but I don’t know if they would bring me lasting satisfaction, because the only reason I came up with the idea is because it would make me a lot of money. After reading a few articles and watching a couple videos for this class, I realized quickly that only wanting to start a company to make money was not good enough. The only problem is, I really don’t know what I am passionate about. I mean, I have passions, but can I start a company around them? I am not sure. So, my next step is just that; I need to find a passion that I can start a company around. Or, maybe, I need to find a company that I can start a passion around? Ha ha I really don’t know. I hope that by taking this class on entrepreneurship it will help me learn a little bit more about myself and what I am truly passionate about. Other than that I don’t think I have had too many thoughts, but I know I have my work cut out for me.
