The main point of these two articles is to draw the similarities between artists and entrepreneurs to light, and how each can learn from each other. Artists should be able to learn from the business and organizational skills of entrepreneurs, who can also learn better flexibility from the artists. I do not believe all artists are entrepreneurs, they do have similar qualities; however, a good entrepreneur also shares qualities with athletes and soldiers, including tenacity and the ability to work well on a team. I agree that artists are “neophiles” mist of the artists I know are continually trying new things. I would add that artists and entrepreneurs both need technical skills.

I apparently have grit, I scored a 4.38 overall, but there is still room for improvement. I could start by organizing thoughts, ideas and projects better into smaller, more manageable pieces.
