Sunil Bharti Mittal is a self-made billionaire. Well, actually he’s a billionaire 11 times over, but who’s counting?   Follow this link and either watch the video or read the transcript of Mittal being interviewed. It recounts how he started his first business at 18 with $1,500 loaned to him by his father and methodically grew that into a $5B international conglomerate.

That was too fast. You didn’t follow the link. You didn’t watch the video. You didn’t read the transcript. Go on. I’ll wait. The rest of our conversation won’t have context without you doing your part.

OK. Good. Your back.

So, how do you feel? Are you ready to quit your job tomorrow and start your company? If not, you aren’t an entrepreneur. You simply can’t watch that 15 minute video without it moving you in a way that compels you to realize that you must get started right now.

Forget about all of the personality tests and litmus tests that try to measure if you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur. After watching that 15-minute video, if you aren’t ready to leap into entrepreneurship tomorrow, you won’t ever be ready. Feel good about the clarity of that decision and go take a job where you can make the greatest impact. Otherwise, get going! What’s holding you back?
