Wrestling with a Stranger

    In Gerber's Chapter 8, Wrestling with a Stranger, he discusses this feeling as being 'called to engage with that part of us that refuses to give up and the part that wants to flee, both at the same time, the parts that are known to us as well as the parts that are unknown.' This is related to the struggle of someone who wishes to take the leap into entrepreneurship but also wants life to remain the same -- the reluctant entrepreneur. Gerber goes on to say, 'The reluctant entrepreneur does not want to wrestle with the stranger. ..... the reluctant entrepreneur wants to stay busy, busy, busy doing what she knows how to do until it bores her to tears or frustrates her to death.' Does this ring true to your experiences? Have you 'wrestled with a stranger?' To the extent you are comfortable, share your story.
