THE ENTREPRENEUR CREDO
I DO NOT CHOOSE TO BE A COMMON MAN. IT IS MY RIGHT TO
BE UNCOMMON…IF I CAN. I SEEK OPPORTUNITY…NOT
SECURITY. I DO NOT WISH TO BE A KEPT CITIZEN, HUMBLED
AND DULLED BY HAVING THE STATE LOOK AFTER ME. I WANT
TO TAKE THE CALCULATED RISK; TO DREAM AND TO BUILD, TO
FAIL AND SUCCEED .I REFUSE TO BARTER INCENTIVE FOR A
DOLE; I PREFER THE CHALLENGES OF LIFE TO THE
GUARANTEED EXISTENCE; THE THRILL OF FULFILLMENT TO
THE STALE CALM OF UTOPIA. I WILL NOT TRADE FREEDOM
FOR BENEFICENCE NOR MY DIGNITY FOR A HANDOUT. I WILL
NEVER COWER BEFORE ANY MASTER NOR BEND TO ANY
THREAT. IT IS MY HERITAGE TO STAND ERECT, PROUD AND
UNAFRID; TO THINK AND ACT FOR MYSELF, TO ENJOY THE
BENEFIT OF MY CREATIONS AND TO FACE THE WORLD
BOLDLY AND SAY: “THIS, WITH GOD’S HELP, I HAVE DONE.”
