This chapter is called:

The pleasure of being entrepreneurs

I can not consider a good entrepreneur. I'm not writing this chapter from an iPad speditomi previewed by Jobs, sprawled on a leather seat of my camper wireless and there are two Swedish blondes in bikinis I massage the neck as I reflect on the next sentence.

Have not arrived "money" to seal my success, so you probably are not really credible in talking about what it means to be entrepreneurs and to give advice.

But I do it anyway because, at this point in the book, I can not avoid it: If you really want to "do the Triplife", you become an entrepreneur.

Do not be scared, because it is very good news.
Immediately remove from the head of the images and stressed incravattati directors who struggle with their teeth to force low blows in order to achieve objectives and to switch from Porsche to Ferrari and who will die alone and a Jacuzzi in some rich five-star hotels of a city where no one loves them.

Being entrepreneurs, is simply to work for themselves and not for others.
And 'the primitive and more humane working conditions and therefore brings with it a certain feeling of naturalness.

The caveman Urguz, when he went out to hunt, armed with a club to bring home dinner, was a businessman who had certain resources (the club), knowledge (the bustle of the Mammoth) and strategies ("now I look upon this rock and then smash his head ").
Already existed in his mind concepts such as the break even point ("the calories consumed must be higher than those of income, otherwise cracks"), access to credit ("Bunz, lend the club with a nail"), interest (" by Bunz, then I give you the thread of the Mammoth ") etc. .. I could go on for hours.

And 'only in more advanced societies that created the employee is, that kind of activity where Tom works to Dick and Dick earn a lot if things go well and if he loses everything goes wrong.
And where Tom often goes out slowly until you forget the call of the Mammoth in love.

So if you decide to make the entrepreneur in a sense a return to the forest and you'll feel less secure but more alive, more awake and less secure but more work but you'll have fun.

And here's the thing: do entrepreneurs is incredibly fun.

Whether you hate or love your current job, one thing is certain: you will like it for yourself more.
And 'even probable that the weight of work disappear and remains only the lightness and creativity, with occasional boring repetitive tasks that you'll soon learn to delegate.

Will there be problems? Sure, but solving them will be a challenge and solved them will give you great energy.
A life without problems there, but you can deal with the chest out and welcome them as opportunities to become stronger.

Here, all very nice, but how to become entrepreneurs?
I do not know, I think it's a bit like swimming, he jumps, and then we'll see, but here are some sayings that I can extrapolate from my experience:

1) There is no more the mother: suddenly you can only count on yourself. There is no longer the head of which pass the mange or fellow all-rounder or the ability to ignore it hoping it will deal with someone. Only you. Ugly? At the beginning, then it becomes beautiful. It 'a dusty road in the Far West (by the parties of Cuneo), at noon and two enemies face: you and the problem. And there is not room for both. Simple and brutal. Shoot first.
After a while you realize that it prefer rather than the muddy slime of the plains of the policy (ie the business management of the problem) is where you bury people problems.
OK Corral, no meeting on Monday.

2) failure: Put it right in the head immediately. Unless you do not have a crazy fortune fails, the first time. Then you stand up to fail and try again. No matter how often mistakes or do not find the right idea. What matters is that you survive, learn and leave. You'll look back and see the MBA as so many failed attempts that do not have to pay 80,000 euros.
If you know that is not for you, return the employee to do and be one step ahead of many colleagues.
(Note: for "fail" I do not mean in a legal sense, the breast are trouble, but that of having to close a project that should not be).

3) Do not fail: the above is often taken too literally, and he jumps into projects with no sense because "at least I learn something." While it is preferable to continue renting their time to any other person is better to try not to fail. Think about it and listen to your instincts, you're in the forest and a failure could also mean the end of your business venture.

4) Learn to manage time, now is thine: if the first had eight hours to get through, are twenty-four hours and they seem too few. The temptation is to work as much as possible while the road is the right to work the best we can. Do not do anything that does not teach you something, if you see something that is repetitive try to pay someone to do it. Define what it's worth your time. 20 euros per hour? Ok, if anyone can do it for less and better delegation.
And time is yours. Go and drink a coffee in the center and watch the people go by, you do not have to account to anyone.

5) Take the best: this is one thing I realized later. If you have three things to do and the money you enough for three medium-quality performers, and make two or * with the best that you find on the market. The hidden costs of doing the things done wrong, almost always resurface over time and end up spending more and end up with an inferior product.
(* The best, not necessarily the most expensive. The more expensive it is easy to find, not the best).

Ok, here I close it is becoming one of those Dummies books Self Help or where you are looking for common structures and dynamics to explain and theorize success.
The truth is that your success defines only you, and not be tied to the numbers but the quality of life that allows you to live your activities.
The success is deeply personal and can not be calculated. I would say almost intimate.

Your business is only part of your life.
You must be able to integrate harmoniously with the rest of the activity: the passions, dreams, feelings.
You try to put on the same wavelength with the entrepreneurial creativity of your deepest feelings to be, so that one supports the other.

Making money, by comparison, is easy.

And 'why look back, I realize that I never dreamed massaggiatici the Swedes, but exactly the life I lived so far and, although the Porsche if the laugh of taste, I consider myself to be a successful entrepreneur.
