The entrepreneur’s character is marked by vision, diligence, and moral conduct. Owners and employees alike are encouraged to exemplify these characteristics in order to achieve success and honour God in their endeavours. “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters” (Colossians 3:23).
Biblical heroes such as Boaz and Priscilla demonstrate the business spirit. Boaz, a wealthy landowner, acted generously and wisely (Ruth 2:1-23). Priscilla and her husband Aquila owned a tent-making company and actively supported the early church (Acts 18:2-3). Their stories encourage current entrepreneurs to balance business and faith.
To develop an entrepreneurial personality, prioritise diligent work, positivism, and ethical behaviours. Seek to have a positive impact on your community and workers. Let Boaz and Priscilla’s examples inspire you to lead with purpose and compassion. Begin now by defining goals that are consistent with these values, ensuring that your work honours God and benefits others.
