The problem with the current entrepreneurship conversation

The current conversation around entrepreneurship is all about champagne bottles, private jets and other trappings of wealth. The problem with this is people get the wrong idea about the level of work they have to do to get and maintain those things. People want the objects but they don’t want to put in the hard work that goes along with it continuously and forever. We need more conversations about the right way to do things, and that is, to be honest, work hard and be patient.
