1. What does it mean to have an "Entrepreneurial Mind"?
Let me define what is an “Entrepreneur” and what is “Mind”. According to
Hayes, (2021) An is an individual who creates a new business, bearing most of the risks and enjoying most of the rewards. The process of setting up a business is known as entrepreneurship. The entrepreneur is commonly seen as an innovator, a source of new ideas, goods, services, and business/or procedures. As stated, entrepreneurs are innovative in nature because they always think what is possible idea that never exist that can enhance market profitability. In contrast, McLeod (2018) the mind is about mental processes, thought and consciousness. Mind allows person to thinks about the knowledge and its capabilities. For me if one person has an entrepreneurial mind, he/she can be able to take the risk because of the willingness to achieve such goals and to know the result out of it rather than without doing anything to work out for that rewarding risk. Some people afraid of failure or rejections, but this is part of life especially if we are entrepreneur.
In every risk there is a learning whether we succeed or not. According to
Huljin (2020) Entrepreneurial mind refers to a specific state of mind which orientates human conduct towards entrepreneurial activities and outcomes. Individuals with entrepreneurial mindsets are often drawn to opportunities, innovation and new value creation. These means that if a person has an entrepreneurial mind, he/she think new of the idea/s or business strategy that can transform into reality and enhances its market profitability. Another is that if a person has an entrepreneurial mind, he/she has the qualities of entrepreneur such as generating new idea, business strategy like strategic procurement of materials, labor productivity, production efficiency etc. Entrepreneurship are both passion and compassion. It is passion because if you love what you do being an entrepreneur then you have the willingness and desire to succeed. It is compassion because as an entrepreneur you have the sympathy in the community you serve, you can find out their needs or problems and you come up with solutions that your business for the profit and at the same time you serve your market with all your heart and determination.
2. What is the importance of "Entrepreneurs" in a society/economy?
Entrepreneurs serves as the drivers of innovation to enhance way of living of a country’s society and economy. According to Seth, (2021) Entrepreneurship is important for a number of reasons, from promoting social change to driving innovation. Entrepreneurs are frequently thought of as national assets to be cultivated, motivated, and remunerated to the greatest possible extent. It means that Entrepreneurs are helpful in our country because they serve as our leaders in innovation, social change that may lead into better way of living. For example, the United States of America which is one of the most develop countries and perhaps one of the world leaders and their forward-thinking innovation, these are important factors in America’s success. Entrepreneur is a brilliant thinker in its society and economy because every decision that they make has a direct and indirect impact to the success of the country. Entrepreneurs are the people who can think new idea and transform it into reality and enhances its marketability that can help the society to incur better way of living. For me entrepreneur has the belief that may or no one can realize or seen. That is why he/ she can never surrender of the belief of the long-term goal in the future that can really give value on the community that serve. Great entrepreneurs have the ability to change the way we live and work, on local and national bases. If successful, their innovations may improve standards of living, and in addition to creating wealth with entrepreneurial ventures, they also create jobs and contribute to a growing economy.
