I went to see Frost/Nixon (wikipedia) and loved it. It’s an incredibly great movie about a set of interviews but most importantly a great movie about entrepreneurship. Every entrepreneur should watch it and learn.
At some point David Frost confesses:
“I’m in this for everything I’ve got and still there is no guarantee I’ll ever see the light of day”.
From my talks with other entrepreneurs I often hear that being an entrepreneur can make you feel very lonely. You can easily feel no one else shares your vision or passion for the business. An entrepreneur normally does and thinks about so many things at the same time that a couple of tiny issues can quickly mitigate the whole motivation. Stress and fear are no strangers to any entrepreneur.
However it’s not that I’m wrong (although I can be). It’s that I want to succeed and even will all the motivation in certain moments everything can point out that failure could be the only option and like David Frost you just wonder ”Why didn’t anyone stop me?”
Who said being an entrepreneur was easy ?



I agree with you 100%… and wish you the best!!!
I believe you’ll one day achieve the stars, my dear friend! Beijinhos, Alex
Loved the movie as well and thought it showed the loneliness of visionaries very well. In these challenging times, we need all the inspiration we can get.
Uwe, that’s completely true!
“can make you feel very lonely. You can easily feel no one else shares your vision or passion for the business.” !?
Don’t you have two business partners ? Why the hell do you feel lonely ?
Carlos, go watch the movie.
If by then you still haven’t understood let me know as me or any of my partners will gladly explain it.
I understand you, believe me. I’m building a business all by myself. You have two other partners and you say you feel lonely… image what i could say.
ps: i’ll have to wait for the dvd… i have a new born. movies (at the cinema) are a ‘no go’ right now.
