Venture Capital

I want you to know that it is not lack of knowledge of actual skill which gives an inferiority complex that interferes with your living. It is the feeling of inferiority that does this. And this feeling of inferiority comes about for just one reason: you judge yourself, and measure yourself, not against your own norm or par but against some other individual’s norm. When you do this, you always without exception come out second best. But because you think, and believe and assume that you should measure up to some other persons ‘norm’, you feel miserable and second rate, and conclude that there is something wrong with you.

One of the drawbacks in the mind of young entrepreneur is that you may feel that there is need to be trained or have certain qualifications to become an entrepreneur. In reality, entrepreneurship is an intrinsic ability in all of us, it’s an instinctive survival streak revealed to all commercially. Even more superficial is the belief that if you do not have a tough backbone, a guerrilla style of handling your business, you are not going to survive the stretch. It may have been true in the 80ties where our developing nation didn’t have a handle on the politics of money, but today it’s a different game, the kings of the business world are suave sophisticated go getters with passion and drive.

Kicking of 2012, 1venture capital is prepared to share excel sheets to help all our fans grasp techniques and methods of building a successful business. As I use it, "success" has nothing to do with prestige symbols, but with creative accomplishment. Rightly speaking no person should attempt to be "a success," but everyone can and should attempt to be "successful." Trying to be "a success" in terms of acquiring prestige symbols leads to frustration and unhappiness. Striving to be "successful" brings not only material gains, but satisfaction, fulfilment and happiness. Creatively striving for a goal that is important to you as a result of your own deep-felt needs, aspirations and talents brings happiness because you will be functioning as you were meant to function. Man is by nature a goal-striving being, and because man is "built that way" he is not happy unless he is functioning as he was made to function, as a goal-striver. Thus, true success and true happiness not only go together but each enhances the other. Our goal for 1venture capital website is to help entrepreneurs build successful businesses.
