Entrepreneurs and those who have an “Entrepreneurial Spirit” are personnel who have access to peripheral view. A mass majority of society have yet to obtain access to this type of perspective due to a substantial amount of legalism that resides in our communities, our hearts and our minds. Legalism is the oppressor of creativity and focusing on rules, regulations and rhetoric. However, when we come into relationship with a primary contact of influence the blinders are removed and peripheral view is restored. Primary contacts of influence take place in the form of mentors, coaches, peers, and even our children. These are people who awaken us to opportunities where our entrepreneurial skills can be utilized and our minds can be stretched.
Peripheral view is the ability to observe and identify ENVIRONMENTAL problematic situations that call for SOLUTIONS. Our solutions should have a direct impact on our families. The family units that are affected by our solutions consist of:
1. Immediate family – Your household which in most cases consist of your wife/husband and children.
2. Extended family – This comprises of your in-laws, brothers, sisters, cousins, etc.
3. Spiritual family– Your church and other churches – The ENTIRE body of Christ
4. Community – Whatever locale you reside and have INVOLVEMENT in.
5. School – The institution that assists you with becoming employable through education and training.
6. Work – The place where you earn your wages.
In essence, we are to have influence within our sphere of influence and abroad. However, you cannot become a person of influence if no one has influenced you. This situation will indeed increase your peripheral view.
