Do You Have What it Takes to Start a Business?

I knew exactly when it was time for me to consider entrepreneurship — right after I got canned from a company to whom I dedicated over a decade of my life. Yep, after helping a company grow from $30 million to $6 billion, we were sold to the highest bidder and the downsizing began. Within a few months, I found myself collecting unemployment. Two years later, the same thing happened again! I was sick of not being in charge of my own destiny. It was time think about being my own boss.
