Entrepreneurs often choose the path of innovation, without realizing the roller coaster journey that comes with it.
They will often live restless and changeable lives.
But as they fearlessly travel down the risk-taking road, they make several mistakes which become beneficial lessons for the rest of us.
They have their good days and bad days. But at the end of the day, these adventurous thrill-seekers are the ones who are changing the world.
Today's Entrepreneur is Jen O'Neal, co-founder and CEO of Tripping.
According to her VEQ (Vator entrepreneur test), she's good at team motivation, marketing management and has good negotiation skills.
