The title of this article caught my eye. Not only is it interesting to read a bit about the history of Entrepreneurship in America, but the article examin’s the mind set of an early entrepreneur.

Another thing that caught my attention was a concept I’ve yet to really find an adequate answer too. What makes a entrepreneur do what they do. Millions of people come up with great ideas all the time, but only a small percentage of those people decide to take that idea and attempt to turn it into something more. But I did like how McCraw got this article started with :

What leads a person to start a company? “The impulse…to prove oneself superior to others.”

SO fee free to check out the article on Joseph A. Schumpeter, an Entrepreneurial legend at
