Entrepreneur, a term that has lost its potency over the years, is finding it's way back home in today's story.

There are those of us that start businesses out of the desire to control our own destiny, but then grapple with the inability to see the forest through the trees.

Every reason why we started a business to begin with -- freedom, choice, creativity -- become the very anchors that hold us back.

Great entrepreneurs know that in order for an idea to flourish and make deep roots in the world, she needs to decouple herself from the ownership of it all.

Say THANKS to our sponsors:
