I just stumbled upon this series on Youtube and though I have only watched 3, this one really caught my eye.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfswYPSpINE

What impressed me is he has diversified his business from tours, to corporate tours to corporate mentorship ( The Outward Bound model) to entrepreneurship mentoring. I just love the entrepreneurship spirit, he definitely broke the Accountant stereotype mold. I was very inspired by this clip and wanted to share with other entrepreneurs. What challenges have you guys come across in this journey, and how have you resolved it? Entrepreneurship is the backbone of any society!

I would think the objective of the show is to highlight entrepreneurial success, it does not matter to me the people's age. So I'm guessing you wouldn't take advice from Warren Buffett coz he's a geriatric?

member turning me away when i needed some cash injection into my biashara.
lakini the biggest prob mimi huona is guys being stuck in the inspiration books/videos hoping to learn a lesson or two - lakini with entrepreneurship unless uko huko deep end, and/ or you hang alot with the guys doing it, you will learn nothing.

It was probably a blessing in disguise that they denied you that loan, I don't think its a wise idea to get a loan to start a business. Just coz you should bootstrap when you start out and more importantly, there's a very high likelihood of your business not even breaking even in the first 3 years. Your last line I guess you mean if you don't have a good network that you are connected to, your probability of success is lower, coz you can learn a lot from the internet, you don't need a network for that.

Wow, this is so inspiring! I love how they did not let society dictate to them what they can or cannot be, but instead took their biggest problems and sought out ways to solve them together. I really love their sense of togetherness and can do attitude, so refreshing. Would love to be a part of this shida tu ni I'm not a boda boda or mama mboga, but I guess I can always start selLing veggies LOL. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJQnTptZFDg
