"how to be a sucessful technopreneur"??

What are the factors that contributed to the success and failure of Steve Jobs as a technopreneur?
Most Stories about successful people tell about them having a good quality education and possessing the correct attitude. There are also countless individuals I personally met who possess these two valuable tools for success and they holding lofty positions in their work and are happy with their life. Success in life is almost always synonymous with these two attributes. One without the other does not guarantee success, thus the two must complementary.I can say one the very successful person in the world is Mr. Steve Paul Jobs because of his intelligent mind that bring him to the top and being a well-known person in the world. Steve is business magnate and inventor. He is well known for being the co-founder and chief of Apple. Jobs also previously served as chief executive of Pixar Animation Studios and also he became a member of the board of The Walt Disney Company in 2006, following the acquisition of Pixar by Disney.
As I watched the movie of the Pirates of the Silicon Valley, I noticed the some factors that contributed to the Success of Steve Jobs

Creative Thinker
A simple definition is that creative thinker is a person who has the ability to imagine or invent something new. Creativity is not the ability to create out of nothing (only God can do that), but the ability to generate new ideas by combining, changing, or reapplying existing ideas. Some creative ideas are astonishing and brilliant, while others are just simple, good, practical ideas that no one seems to have thought of yet. Creativity is also an attitude: the ability to accept change and newness, a willingness to play with ideas and possibilities, a flexibility of outlook, the habit of enjoying the good, while looking for ways to improve it. Creative people are comfortable with imagination and with thinking so-called weird, wild, or unthinkable thoughts, just for the sake of stimulation. I cant imagine how Steve Jobs have a creative mind creating computer hardware.

He Don’t be Afraid to Make Mistakes
Some point of our lives we never noticed that we starting making mistakes little by little but because learning from our mistakes makes us strong and courage to do what we want, we pursue of the things that makes us successful even we encounter trials and judging of others. Mistakes is a part of being mature, things that happen to of us. I know sometimes Mr. Steve afraid of making mistakes because a person like him does thing invention perfect. I used to think that as I matured I would make fewer mistakes. I thought, we going to get better at this, because we made a lot of mistakes in the beginning. I believed that there would come a day when I wouldn't make very many mistakes, because I would be better.
What we learned, however, was that as we matured we would continue to make mistakes, but I would learn more quickly from them. Maturity helps us become better leaders because it helps us learn from our mistakes.
As we become more self-confident, we're willing to admit things that we would not admit if we had lower self-image. We become strong enough to admit mistakes -- and learn from them. We become bolder because we know that even if we make a mistake, we are moving ahead.
As we mature we realize that mistakes are not usually fatal. As Henry Ford put it, "Even a mistake may turn out to be the one thing necessary to a worthwhile achievement." Thomas Edison could have said the same thing, with 1,000 "mistakes" before hitting on the discovery he was seeking.
Steve Jobs also learn from his mistakes when I saw the movie the pirates of the Silicon Valley first I noticed that the idea of Steve Jobs will not perfect if he haven’t encountered several mistakes he believed that as long as he did things slowly and carefully, and learned from other people’s blunders. Whenever we did screw up we was often chastised for not being careful enough, for not thinking things through, or for not listening closely enough when we was told about other people’s mistakes. We grew into an anxiety-ridden teenager, afraid of making even the tiniest mistake, and strove for perfection.

Curiosity
Curiosity of Steve Jobs leads to know things all kinds of things just to know them. Knowledge does not require a reason. The question, "Why do you want to know that?" seems strange to the creative person, who is likely to respond, "Because I don't know the answer." Knowledge is enjoyable and often useful in strange and unexpected ways. Next, knowledge, and especially wide ranging knowledge, is necessary for creativity to flourish to its fullest. Much creativity arises from variations of a known or combinations of two knowns. The best ideas flow from a well equipped mind. Nothing can come from nothing.
In addition to knowing, curios people want to know why. What are the reasons behind decisions, problems, solutions, events, facts, and so forth? Why this way and not another? And why not try this or that?
The curious person's questioning attitude toward life is a positive one, not a destructive one reflecting skepticism or negativism. Steve Jobs also is a curios person when he do his invention and idea but because his curiosity he have a wide mind to make more convenience and enhance his invention.
Steve Jobs makes your mind observant of new ideas when he are curious about something, his mind expects and anticipates new ideas related to it. When the ideas come they will soon be recognized. He It opens up new worlds and possibilities by being curious you will be able to see new worlds and possibilities which are normally not visible. They are hidden behind the surface of normal life, and it takes a curious mind to look beneath the surface and discover these new worlds and possibilities. It brings excitement into his life; the life of Steve Jobs is far from boring. It’s neither dull nor routine. He and his company are always new things that attract their attention; there are always new ‘toys’ to play with.

Factors of failure of Steve Jobs are Rejecting of idea and criticism of others
In the movie Steve Jobs is sometimes boastful person he does not how to listen of idea of others. He became self-center he think that all of his idea was a perfect he doesn’t know that sometimes the criticism and knowledge of others make his invention better. These Factors of failure of Steve Jobs make him bad. Criticism is futile because it puts a man on the defensive, and usually makes him strive to justify himself. “Criticism is dangerous, because it wounds a man’s precious pride, hurts his sense of importance, he afraid that people criticize him. For me, he was the fear of being criticized, first by his friends, employee and then by people in general. Maybe he does no learn to associate making mistakes with being judged, rejected, and ridiculed, He think that he handle everything.

How do you see yourself as a technopreneur?
When I read this question how I see my self as a technoprenuer I laughed I think a few minutes started imagine how is my life being with it profession and work. As I grow up I know to myself that I have no capability to this profession. As a student now I haven’t yet idea how difficult is it but when I encountered and met a person who is technopreneur and saw what they do. I think it hard to manage business and trust other people. technopreneur is the key to earn money through technology. Can I really earn from technology? People think nowadays about their future. They think seriously, of course life is not a joke. But sometimes people don't know how to do it. Well in fact the things they need is just around them. The keep on looking for money and they are looking for it badly. Sadly, they don't really know about earning through technology.

Maybe being an technopreneur is a lot more risky than the conventional job routine. There is no regular salary I have to find customers on my own. Marketing your product/service and financing the project are also of concern. I noticed that most technopreneur use a combination of due diligence and gut instincts while evaluating their product/service. They are good at spotting a need in the market and then backing themselves up to believe that their idea can fill that void. If someday I would be a technopreneur I must believe in my idea and not always depending in others, I Never underestimate what I can do and other contributions. Being an technopreneur is a lot more risky than the conventional job routine. There is no regular salary; you have to find customers on your own. Marketing your product/service and financing the project are also of concern. I noticed that most entrepreneurs use a combination of due diligence and gut instincts while evaluating their product/service.
If someday when my path cross being business woman I would rather choose technopreneurship because the evolution of technology is changing every minute or every hour, there are many things and learn to technology. But it hard to me being future business woman because I don’t kwon how to manage money but I know to convincing others but technopreneur is more on knowledge how to new technology in society.
Tales of Successful stories can be traced from the pages of history and even in the pages of the Holy Sciptures. People who reached the zenith of success have distinct characteristics that reflect their totality as a person. How can I reached my goals was never a matter of chance or destiny, but because I possessed strong will of my character and determination.
Success cannot be achieved overnight. It requires a lot of sacrifices that would definitely test how strong and capable you are. There are requirements in order to me to achieve success but not in an easy way. A person needs to have skills. Skills that given by God that every person has. It is only for me to develop these and enhance.
Another requirement would be abilities. Skills when developed and enhanced would soon become a part of me and eventually become my secret weapon towards success. A person equipped with abilities could easily find ways and means overcome difficulties that he might encounter along the way. Abilities are also needed in order to perform my job well. The ability to make decisions and feasible plans would help me a lot in traversing my way towards the long and narrow path of success. My skill and abilities are my greatest investments in order to profit and gain.
My character would be the final determinant whether or not we would be able to reach my destiny. My character counts. Skills and abilities would mean nothing without my character. Success would be within our reach if we possess these three qualities- skill, ability and character. Many people fail to attain their objectives in life because they lack one of these characteristics in the whole package of successful technopreneur.
