    The reason so many people start businesses after losing their job is that it’s often the first time they get a taste of freedom, they’re finally away from the constraints of a job, from someone managing their outcomes every day -- and immediately, it’s hard to go back. When we feel the freedom of leaving the constraints of a job, it’s very hard for our personality type to go back. So, oftentimes, losing a job is when entrepreneurs finally wake up.
