15 reasons to create a company and never be an employee again.
Reason #1.
1. Being an entrepreneur is great because you are literally the owner of your own destiny. If you want to make more money, work hard and it will happen.
-Natalie Bidnick Andreas, Content and Digital Marketing Strategist.
two. My company works 100% online, which allows me the freedom to live in any country I choose. It has allowed me to open my mind, learn new languages, and experience the world in ways few can.
-Jill Loeffler, Dreamexploreinspire.com.
3. You will never be waiting for a boss to notice that you have done an excellent job to deserve a raise or a promotion. If you do things right you will have it, the reward is immediate.
-Rebecca Bennett, founder, CityFitLA.
Four. I can decide my schedule and hire incredible professionals wherever I want to create my work team. I feel proud to know that this company took shape, grew and I created it. What can be more exciting than that?

5. I never feel like I’m going to work. It doesn’t feel like work because I’m doing exactly what I want and I enjoy it.
-Darci Upham, Franchise Owner, CruiseOne.
6. I love being an entrepreneur because I am in control. Although the word control has a negative connotation, to me it is something beautiful and powerful.
-Felena Hanson, founder, Hera Hub.
7. I never get bored, I’m always working to create something better. Being an entrepreneur is not a job where you do the exact same thing for 30 years and then retire. I have the opportunity to go in different directions, some good, some bad; but always learning along the way.
-Jim Belosic, CEO, ShortStack.
8. I can dress however I want and bring my dog to the office. Being an entrepreneur is great because I don’t have to face the unnecessary rules, restrictions and bureaucracy of big companies. I only work on improving my company.

9. What I love most about being an entrepreneur is that my clients tell me that what I have created they love and it makes their lives better.

13. The best part of being an entrepreneur is that it requires me to constantly face my fears, get out of my comfort zone and push myself to face new challenges.
