One and a half years ago I arrived at Babson College with intentions of launching a promising start-up. I didn't know in what industry, what market, how it would be done, or with whom; all I knew was it was going to be big. I went forward in faith, with the hope that over the next 2 years something might grab me; that I might I have that romanticized "Ah-hah" moment that all the great entrepreneurs seem to have. So with this mind set, It was off into the exciting and great unkown.
Instead of figuring out what I want or am about, I have somehow managed to collect more "unknowns". I have collected interests in more disciplines, industries, and sectors, but nothing has yet to grab me. So my passion continues to live somewhere in the ethos; consisting both of effecting a lot of lives for good, and making a lot of money. I've been taught ever since I arrived at Babson to "embrace ambiguity". That must mean I've been a great success, because, not only have I embraced it, I have grown it. Three months left till graduation, and I think I have more options for a career, and more approaches toward becoming an entrepreneur than I ever knew existed. One of the more recent additions was the option of entrepreneurship through acquisition. In fact, the purpose of this blog is to document my journey toward finding a small business that I want and can buy. The purpose of this particular entry is to kick that process off, and to invite all readers to join me in finding a pearl by sifting through all the grey.
