Words  by  Dr.  Ed  Canela  Graphics  by  Google  Images  and  private  collec:ons  Contact:  ed.canela@gmail,    FB:  facebook.com/edcanela,  @edcanela1,    

Here    

ED is the process

of conceiving,

starting,

developing,

promoting,

growing, scaling-

up and exiting

from an

enterprise

adventure.

How?  Macro:  Policy  and  Ins:tu:ons  Micro:    Individuals  and  Groups,  Players  and  Ins:tu:ons  

In micro, TOO

Many

Hardships may only come

from the outside (MACRO), but failure can only come

from the inside (MICRO)!

There’s the SYSTEMATIC view..... academic, banks, etc.

This is the

Formula of all ED

courses

Then, there’s

the JUST DO IT

view.....

Practical,

school of

experience

No one can teach

you this method.

You need passion,

hard work, &

lots of luck!

NOW  

THEN INGREDIENT 1:

YOU & YOUR TEAM

LIFE is the toughest school.

YOU never know what class

YOU are in, what exam YOU

will have next and YOU

cannot cheat because

nobody else has the same

question paper. It’s just

YOU, the road, and YOUR

choices!

-don’t like the status quo -like to make this world a better, brighter and happier place -suspect tradition -reject conformists -loathe mediocrity -like to be a pioneer, founder renegade, visionary, innovator -do not like to sell out to safety nets and benefits  

Are an

entrepreneur?

You are if you;  

-refuse to play by the rules imposed by others -are not a cog in another person’s machine -clocks make you shudder -don’t give up easily -loves to sell -don’t like predefined paths -have strong self-belief -are soooo passionate -sees opportunities everywhere -know you need others to help -uncomfortable working for others  

They are getting younger!

Look  at  our  enterprises  today…..  

Its  not  impossible,  its  just  that  no  one  has  done  it  yet!!!  

You can change your

When you have decided on

the idea, woNDERFUL things

start to happen...

YOU & YOUR PLAN

Venture  Capitalist,  Angels

THE PLAYERS

someone who

gave up on

their dreams,

talk you out

of yours!

When something is not

working, don’t change

your dream. Just change

your approach.

At this stage, share your

ideas, test your

assumptions, try to make

things REAL, Fail quickly

with little pain, repeat

until SUCCESS! Together!

NOW

RECIPE for SUCCESS:

PERSISTENCE.

accident.

It is hard work,

perseverance,

learning, studying,

sacrifice and most of

all, Love of what

you are doing. Pele

Be aware...ALWAYS!

Life has 2 rules:

1.  NEVER Quit

2. ALWAYS remember Rule 1.

The future belongs to

all who prepares for it.

TODAY.

Never get so

busy making

a living that

your forget

to make a

Life
