Understand the term Entrepreneur and Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship is the best idea to cope with unemployment now a days. Any person who wants to start a business must understand what is involved in becoming an entrepreneur  and what the necessary conditions of an entrepreneur are.

Here I will discuss the skills and personal abilities required to become an entrepreneur  and the difference between being an entrepreneur and being an employee.
