Are you interested in business? Do you have ideas for starting a business? Explore your entrepreneurial aspirations with these journal prompts about entrepreneurship.
Entrepreneurship is having an idea for a business and developing it with a long-term goal for its success in mind.
I remember when my daughter was little how she was always thinking of ideas for selling things.
She spent one summer painting rocks and selling them to the neighbors who lived on our road and to all of her relatives.
She was so excited about her business venture!
Another year she wrote storybooks and would put them all on display for her potential buyers (usually her grandma and grandpa).
She was a budding entrepreneur.
It reminded me of my brother who, when he was young, grew pumpkins and sold them at a roadside stand.
He, too, was an entrepreneur at heart.
My brother had a sense for business, and not surprisingly, he pursued a business career.
My daughter has also gone into business. She is self-employed as an influencer. I find it really interesting to watch her develop her business, and am excited for her as she continues to experience more and more success.
Today is an exciting time for those who have an entrepreneurial spirit. With the availability and potential of technology and the internet, online businesses are taking off.
There are so many options for today’s entrepreneurs.
In this article, I will explore journal prompts about entrepreneurship. Come along and explore with me; maybe you’ll discover a budding entrepreneur within yourself!
Journal Prompts For Spiritual Entrepreneurship
An entrepreneur brings their creativity and skills to a business design and they pursue the development and marketing of their product.
The aim of an entrepreneur is to successfully grow their business and ultimately make money from their venture.
A spiritual entrepreneur has a different focus. This individual brings their skills and knowledge to the workplace with the intention of positively affecting their co-workers.
The spiritual entrepreneur aims to uplift others and inspire them to grow emotionally through their work.
Rather than measuring their success through the sale of a product, the spiritual entrepreneur measures their success by the level of positivity, joy, and camaraderie in the workplace.
This person will work to keep relationships among co-workers collegial and cooperative.
If conflict arises in the workplace, the spiritual entrepreneur works to solve the issue and restore a copesetic relationship among those involved.
The value of a spiritual entrepreneur can ultimately be seen in the productivity of the workplace and the successful production of the business idea.
This is measured by profits made.
Due to the specific focus of the spiritual entrepreneur to help others and create positivity, they often work with companies in the service industry or with organizations whose aim is to help others improve their lives.
Depending on the specific skills, talents, and interests of the spiritual entrepreneur, this could take the form of fundraising for a community that wishes to address a particular problem.
Spiritual entrepreneurs also work in the sphere of education, health and wellness, the arts, photography, design, animal care, jewelry, and the food industry.
The prompts which follow encourage you to explore questions that help you to view yourself from the light of spiritual entrepreneurship.
You may discover that your nature is suited to spiritual entrepreneurship and journaling on this topic may lead you to a career in this field.
