Young or old, entrepreneurs have to at times think out side the box, and that just may be the best thing they can do for the themselves and their business.

By saying that being yourself will tell someone they should be disruptive or lazy, well then obviously that person is not going to go very far anyway.

Yes, I do agree that finding who you really are can take time, I also feel though that the JOURNEY to finding who you are is as rewarding as the end result of being that person.

I have dyed my hair every shade of the rainbow (sometimes all at the same time), yet it never effected how I dealt with situations, people, my determination, drive, and my great work ethic which has helped me to achieve many of my dreams.

I would say to someone that if you don’t already have a great work ethic, get one. Otherwise, yes be yourself and be happy and you will always find what you want in life.

I haven’t read the aforementioned book, but I do agree that we ( as young business people ) need to feel our way through our organizations. You must always be true to yourself, but you must tread lightly by ‘being yourself’. I would tell young people to do the right thing, think for themselves, and to open their imagination. To tell someone ‘to be yourself’ connotes not following the norm, and unfortunately, we sometimes need to follow rules to get things done properly and to have others follow us.
