Without any doubt, there have been a number of entrepreneurs who have been successful for a long period of time. It is impossible to express or measure it in terms of quantity.

But it is also a irrefutable fact that, as in some other fields or areas, there are a top quality group of businessmen like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs who stick out a great deal. Therefore, would you like to learn more about their business image?

As you know very well, Bill Gates, one of the most successful business men in recent times have said there will be two types of business in the 21st century.

To be successful as an does not necessarily need a manual, yes it's important to study the life and ways of successful entrepreneurs, but the fact remains that what worked for them might not work for you, because of some factors like demography, capital, temperament, etc.

Some people talk about element of luck as one of the contributing factor to success, meanwhile you cannot be lucky if you are not prepared, that's why luck is generally regarded as opportunity meeting preparedness.

So for you to be successful, you have to work hard and smart, you have to be good at your chosen career, you also have to know when opportunities presents themselves so you can grab them.

Entrepreneurship has been a field that has gotten the attention of many people in the world , unfortunately not many people survive in the business because of their approach towards it.

The successful entrepreneurs you mentioned were able to set up their plans very well , follow it rightly and in the end were able to reap the fruit of their hardwork.

Entrepreneurs who fail to succeed in their business are those that have not been able to inculcate all the qualities expected to be in an entrepreneur.

The successful ones will always tell you that it wasn't easy for them ,yet many people won't believe it , they want to have it quick and that is why they fail

It is nice to read the success stories on businesses. However, I always have doubts on the accuracy because I have discovered that some rich guys are not really that successful to say they started with nothing. One successful owner of a fast food franchise here admitted that when he started his business he had no money but he was confident with his idea so he borrowed a million pesos from his father. You see, he was successful because he had that substantial capital to start the business otherwise he may not have been successful due to lack of finances when the business operated.
