Howard Schultz was not born rich. He came up from a struggling family in the Canarsie section of Brooklyn, New York. In fact, Schultz is not only straight from Brooklyn, but, he's out of Breuklan projects. He's no different than the average everyday person.
Howard knew where he wanted to go with his life. He had a vision for business and marketing at an early age. In fact, he tried his hand almost 30 years ago and ventured into Starbucks. This is how his name became larger than life today. He did not achieve abnormal success without experiencing much failure. Every entrepreneur has their ups and downs before and after launching a business. No matter who the person is, never let anyone have you believing and thinking they have been successful the entire route without experiencing some type of "mild career malfunction." Failure is a humbling point in every entrepreneur's journey where they learn valuable lessons about becoming better in doing what they do. There is no learning experience without failing.
Howard Schultz was determined to succeed no matter how many times he failed. He kept going even when things seem like they would never work. Many billionaires today were not born rich. In fact, most of them did not even have a dime to their name and was once homeless. Many successful billionaires and entrepreneurs worth millions had it the hardest in life and faced countless obstacles. Achieving elite business success requires having a virtual diehard mindset refusing to lose even when you can't see what's in store for your future. Howard Schultz defied adversity and proved beyond a reasonable doubt anyone can succeed despite anything.
If you're considering starting a business and unsure of your future as an entrepreneur, believe in yourself and take a risk. It will not be easy starting out and you will make many mistakes along the way. Keep going anyway and never quit. No matter who turns on you whether it be friends, family, or even your spouse, don't give up under any circumstances. If you want something that bad in life you will do what it takes to honestly succeed. And along the way, help someone else succeed so you stay blessed and successful. That's what "humble entrepreneurship" is about. Howard Schultz is an inspiring example of [humble entrepreneurship].
