The truth of the matter is that the definition of entrepreneur is “a person who starts a business and is willing to risk loss in order to make money”. So how did such complimentary adjectives come to surround a word that really isn’t very interesting at all? Because the person who is willing to take such a risk is made up of some admiral qualities that surround them in creativity and mystique. According to Entrepreneur Magazine (https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/243054) there are 12 qualitative indicators of being an entrepreneur:

Take action

Resourceful

Don’t ask permission

Fearless

Welcome change

Love a challenge

Recover quickly

Listen

Focus on what matters

Scared

Obsess over cash flow

Outsider

In truth, I could take this list and actually compare it line for line to symptoms of having

neurological disorganization as we would look at for a candidate for Crossinology

Brain Integration Technique. As an adult, entrepreneurs are revered for these qualities but as a child, taking action could look a lot like impulsiveness, not asking permission could be seen as defiant, and welcomes change could be seen as difficulty completing tasks. So how do words with such negative connotations in childhood end up on the hot list of popularity as an adult?

Perseverance and creativity. As per stated above, most entrepreneurs view themselves in some

way as an outsider, not fitting into traditional molds and settings. Without going into the

neuroscience of how this brain functions physiologically, most entrepreneurs would be

considered Gestalt dominant in cerebral processing. This makes them outrageously creative and

with creativity comes a whole host of tools to manipulate the systems around you to work for you

instead of constantly working against them. From a young age, entrepreneurs learn to surround

themselves with the people who make them most efficient. In fact, there are theories that being

a dyslexic entrepreneur makes you more likely to be a serial entrepreneur, grow your business

faster, and hire more employees (http://biggsuccess.com/2011/04/01/left-handed-dyslexic-

entrepreneurs-are-the-most-successful-leaders-2/). All great things for the economy! However,

some of the drawbacks of such a gifted mind can be overthinking, disorganization, hyper

focused on finances, fear, and believe it or not, low self esteem. This combination can lead to

unnecessary stress and a stressful state of being that is a breeding ground for anxiety and

associated physical problems (i.e. ulcers). Fortunately, CrossinologyBrain Integration Technique

can help to balance these negative associations while providing structure and strength to the

creative genius that keeps new innovations and ideas a driving force in the world today.
