With the increasing ‘pressure’ on Nigerian students to embrace entrepreneurship and not rely on the government for jobs, a few students wonder if they are naturally cut-out for entrepreneurship.

Now, whether entrepreneurs are born or made is an argument that can drag for too long even among Nigerian undergrads. To cut short such arguments, here are 4 signs that tell whether an undergrad can become an entrepreneur upon graduation:

1. You have ideas
If you have a notebook of business ideas or spend time dreaming of business ventures that just won’t stop evolving.

When you look at existing businesses and see ways to improve it and opportunities the business owners have missed.

You sometimes wish you can fast-track your academic pursuit so you can get out of school and execute.

2. You have passion and want something different
The norm is a situation where people graduate from school, prepare Resumes and spend months and sometimes years hunting for good jobs.

However, you want something different from the norm. While your mates are submitting job applications, you will want to be receiving job applications. You want to be able to manage your own time and do things your way. You want to be your own boss.

3. You want to do some good
You believe in your ability to do some good like helping other graduates by creating more job opportunities.

You want to create a social enterprise that will add value to the lives of others.

4. Business Awareness
The best way to know that you can become an entrepreneur after graduation is to become aware of how to run a business; a great way to ascertain this is to run a business venture while still in school?

If you have passion, great ideas and some know-how, entrepreneurship is a risk that reaps huge financial returns and amazing lifestyle rewards.

Do you think you can be an entrepreneur after graduation? Share the signs you have noticed that indicate that you can. Also what other signs do you know of that isn’t included in the list.
