Entrepreneurship Questions: 25 Questions to Measure Your Entrepreneurial Potential

Imagine sailing a sea full of storms with a boat as big as your capital. Imagine your boat growing and developing as your entrepreneurial idea gets stronger. How far you will go is under the control of your knowledge. Which storms you dive into or how you survive a storm that finds you depends on your skills. Knowledge and skills are the two most essential elements that feed an entrepreneur’s idea.

Also, imagine that you have a small boat, your savings, that the storms can’t fight. How far can you go?

As I said at the beginning; You are in a sea of storms. If you see entrepreneurship as a trend and throw yourself into this sea because of your excitement, you are more likely to be wrong about your idea or yourself. Just as entrepreneurship requires so much attention and knowledge to be a plan B, being an entrepreneur is not as easy as having an idea.

In the light of all this, if we are considering becoming an entrepreneur, we should know ourselves before our idea and make sure that we are ready for a stormy life. The best way to get to know ourselves is to answer these questions honestly by asking ourselves questions.

1) Can you deal with disappointment and start again in a positive mood?

2) Would you be happy to be the center of attention?

3) Is it easy for you to get organized?

4) Do you think you can control your life within a discipline?

5) Are you ready to take risks at acceptable levels?

6) Do you know how to show your creative side?

7) Do you trust your imagination?

8) Do you have the skills to take some seemingly unfavorable conditions and turn them into opportunities?
