.Anyone can start a business. In fact, you don’t need a graduate degree to become an entrepreneur. Some of the most successful entrepreneurs are college dropouts, ordinary folks, and even young kids not yet out of school.


To succeed in business, however, what you need is the courage to take the risk. And this is not something everyone has.

Mary Christensen, a popular speaker on direct selling and network marketing, says it best in her book “Be a Party Plan Superstar: Build a 00,000-a-Year Direct Selling Business from Home00,000-a-Year Direct Selling Business from Home“:

I was not an overnight superstar, but I was willing to work and willing to learn, and that paid off for me. Every change I made was a small step forward, and as long as I took more steps forward than backward I felt as though I was making progress. I learned that if things weren’t working for me, I had to change, and not expect others to change. But the single greatest lesson I learned was that it takes courage, not confidence, to build a business.
