                                                                  WEEK 14 My final lecture to everyone is simple; The entrepreneurial journey is one for people who are not easily gag down by failures and disappointment. This journey, the entrepreneurial journey, is one that is full of struggles and failures, but one thing I have learned from this course is every entrepreneur can be successful—only if they don’t give up and quit when trials come their way. Entrepreneurial journey is a journey for the Heros; people that have the spirit of not quitting, or getting discouraged along the way. Every successful entrepreneur we have seen or known have, at some point in the entrepreneurial journey, had to deal with disappointments and failures.
