Father

This article was about how many great entrepreneurs have had great father that has backed them not only financially but also mentally. It talks about how the founder of the Samuel Adams beer was backed by his father. His father even backed him even after several years early he tried the same thing and failed. As we know now that Samuel Adams is doing quite well in market that is not easy to join. The article also states many other entrepreneurs that became successful because they had the backing of their father. When reading this article I began to think of how my father has done the same thing for me also. He was always pushing me to do whatever I wanted to do. He was always there for me not matter what I did even if it was the wrong thing. He knows how to put everything in perspective for me. If not for my father I would more than likely not be where I am today. It makes sense that entrepreneurs need a strong figure not necessarily a father that will be behind them no matter what. It takes a great deal of courage to start your own business. That’s why it is always good to have someone like your father there to be able to talk to. They will have your best interest at hand and will always help you in any situation. So to make my point entrepreneurs that have a good backing system I feel will have a better success rate.
