"My Entrepreneurship Story"

My family has a bit of a history with entrepreneurship. My great-uncle on my mothers side was a established and well regarded figure in the Judo community, and owned and operated his own dojo. He started this business after immigrating to America from Cuba. He had practiced Judo almost his whole life, and was successful in tournaments both in the US and in Cuba. As he got older and started a family in the States, he decided to pursue his true love of throwing people onto the ground instead of getting a more pedestrian job where he would have to follow other peoples rules. He ran his dojo for the rest of his life, until he died in his late 80s. Though by the end of his life he was too old to slam and be slammed onto floor mats, he was still said to be quite the intimidating figure, and a clever businessman. Unfortunately he died just 6 months before I was born. Maybe if he had lived longer I'd be training to be a Judo master instead of a dentist. But then again, even if that was the case this class would still be useful to me! I hope to learn the mentality and skills needed to strike out on my own and start my own enterprise, whether its a dojo or a dental practice. That's why I enrolled in ENT3003! That and it was easily the most interesting of my elective choices...
