In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Business Rockstars talks with Brian Lee of BAM Ventures on the defining traits of an entrepreneur, which he describes as a combination of being a builder, leader and creative problem solver. From there, stumbling upon that amazing idea, means getting it down on paper and preparing to arrange a team to nurture it.

When your busienss does happen to hit a wall, Lee recommends scaling it with a team by reaching out to more experienced parties. You should reassure yourself that your colleagues have been in a similar position before and they may be able to help you through your own situation. Do not hold back and continue to ask for advice when you need it.
