It's the journey

Entrepreneur, July, 2005 by Brian M. Zingo

About two years ago, I made a life-changing decision to become an entrepreneur. I was in college and on track to finish my degree in meteorology when I decided that the field I was pursuing left me with a limited number of options. I spent a lot of time researching different career opportunities, but none of them [held] my interest for more than a couple of days. When spring break [came] and it was time to visit home, I was still lost and feeling depressed. At my lowest point, just when I was about to concede to second best, I found a copy of Entrepreneur magazine in the Oklahoma City airport. It was the July 2003 edition and [the cover] screamed out, "THE NEXT BIG THING." This really sparked my interest. On the plane ride home to Chicago, I read every article in the magazine. I anticipated new issues and took notes religiously, knowing that owning my own business was exactly what I wanted to do.

I graduated from the University of Oklahoma back in May 2004, and now I have my own home-technology integration company called Xorco LLC. I am grateful to say that Entrepreneur magazine has been there every step of the way!
