When one looks in the mirror, what does one see? A child, a business individual, a person who has the chance to make a difference? Zachary Weisenthal saw a boy who was fascinated with web design and computers. Weisenthal grew up like any other child shoveling snow and pet sitting for the neighbors. It was not until he accompanied his father at an entrepreneurial weekend event did a sudden spark of interest happen. Weisenthal already interested in computers and web design, but this opportunity opened up a whole new future for him. He was introduced to the technology WordPress and not long after became a master of the app and set out to start his business. With his previous set in skills of time management, communication, and determination from his childhood jobs Weisenthal set work onto becoming one of the youngest, most successful business people in the world. Zach Weisenthal is know the proud owner of Zach’s Web Designs, building websites for non-profit organizations, jewelers, racecar drivers, etc.
Weisenthal was able to show the world that one does not need money or a big idea to become great, only the opportunity. If the opportunity is presented to you, grab it, and see where it takes you. Of coarse growing a successful business does not happen on it own, it takes time and energy. Another key factor to becoming successful is to be passionate about what you are doing. If you do not find what you are perusing to be interesting to you then it is going to be an uphill battle for you.
Weisenthal suggests on taking risks. How else will you go far if you act like everybody else.
It is very neat to see how he had a sudden spark of interest by attending an entrepreneurial event. I love that he had an idea that interested him and stuck with it to create his business.
This was really interesting and well written! I thought the message of Weisenthal was great and something that people should know before entering a career.
It goes to show how being exposed to the right environment can spark ideas that might have never surfaced in the first place. Zachary clearly has an entrepreneurial mind and his passion, skills, and patience played an integral role in his success.
