What Exactly Is A Social Entrepreneur, Anyway?

The concept of “entrepreneurialism” was developed in French economics and has always been related to developing new markets and economic progress within a capitalistic framework.

Isn’t the spirit of the entreprenuer what built American a great nation? Aren’t we shown everyday examples of everyday folks that took the plunge and are successful and fulfilled. While my venture offers no guarantees, I wake up with passion and excitement. Why doesn’t everyone want that? Why do so many leave their fate to chance?  Read Full Story...
