In my experience, entrepreneurs are driven, passionate people. They are willing to run through brick walls to make something happen, if they believe that’s the best way to get it done. They have a vision of a successful business, and they will do whatever is necessary to make that vision a reality. That determination sets them apart from the majority of people, who quit after experiencing a setback.

 The man had already run two workshops yesterday when he walked into T2F in Karachi to run a session on “Ultrabootstrapping” for P@SHA and TiE Karachi. Sabeen Mahmud and I were grateful that he had so readily accepted our request to speak to technologists and entrepreneurs in Karachi at such short notice. It just shows how ready Naeem Zafar is to share his experience and his knowledge.
