This week, we are talking about why people don't become entrepreneurs. Seventy-two percent of Americans say they would love to be an entrepreneur, but only about 10 or 11% are. And what are the reasons, and can we change these reasons so that people will be more likely to start a business? I do believe that we can do that, and I'll share another potential reason that people don't start a business right after this. Oh, and how to get over it.

People are afraid to take the risk, but let me tell you this little scenario. If you work for Coca-Cola and get fired, you have zero. If you're an entrepreneur, say a landscaper, and one of your 20 clients fires you, you still have 19 clients. Entrepreneurship may be even less risky than a corporate job in America these days. That's how much America has changed. You have to think about risk in a different way.
