Summary

Westerners today grow up with abundant opportunities to determine their own values, identities, and roles in society. But for generations, millions who lived under Soviet rule in the USSR had these essential freedoms withheld, determined instead by a central authority that claimed the right to choose for them and enforce their compliance. Thirty years after the Soviet Union’s decisive collapse, the old communist paradigm continues to limit those who come of age in a post-Soviet world.

Everyone Is an Entrepreneur showcases the experience of an American author acclimating to life in the developing post-Soviet economy of Armenia. Along the way, he examines how the intelligent and hardworking people he lives among are stuck in a state of transition away from all-encompassing, bureaucratic control. They struggle to adjust to the responsibilities of economic self-determination because they have never learned how to see the world through entrepreneurial eyes.

Entrepreneurship is a principled way of seeing the world, a paradigm that applies to people in all cultural and economic circumstances: artists, office workers, doctors, teachers, farmers, and laborers alike. By adopting this universal outlook, anyone can produce more wealth, accomplish bigger goals, and take control of their life like never before.

Interesting analysis of Entrepreneurialism

I really resonated with the core messages in this book and had first-hand experience when I was involved with running a sales team of over 100 Russians, newly-arrived in the UK in the early 1990s. I was struck by how tough and resilient these people were but mostly how enthusiastic they were about creating businesses. At least two of those people have gone on to become millionaires that I know of. I remember having a conversation with one of them who was talking about starting their own bank, this seemed so alien to me that I realized how much for granted I took my environment and how programmed I had become, it would never even have even occurred to me to start my own bank!

This book analyzes the experience of the author and helps put my own experience into context, entrepreneurialism is a creative as well as an economic response that elevates the human race and is an essential part of the development of human beings and this book demonstrates that in a logical and well-reasoned way.
