Did you think being an entrepreneur is easy? Life of an entrepreneur is fraught with so many unimaginable roadblocks.
My husband, my dad, my dad in law, my brother in law and everyone in my family is an entrepreneur including me :). I feel proud to be a self starter & a risk taker, but getting your own business is not always about just following your dream, its about taking risks, knowing the uncertainty, lots and lots of hard work & more…
For a lot of my friends who are already entrepreneurs or who are deciding to be one, you need to see these 5 movies, they are extremely motivating, insightful & knowledgeble.

The same principles of decency and integrity that helped him pile up a fortune led him to give it all away in the largest philanthropic donation in history. Becoming Warren Buffett chronicles the evolution of a boy from Nebraska who became one of the most respected men in the world, and the heroes who helped guide him along the way.
