"Entrepreneurship is the essence of capitalism. Entrepreneurship is a lifestyle. It requires a vision; passion to pursue it, and dedication to work through the tough times. You must believe in your mission and yourself, or no one else will. You will stumble and sometimes fall, but you must get back up, reassess and move ahead. The concepts included in Dream, Learn, Pitch are critical to understanding this process." - Allan Darr - ProAct, LTD
