Follow your dreams. It's something that people always say, but it's something that people rarely do. If they did then the world would be full of circus performers, ice-cream tasters and racing car drivers. But these infographics for entrepreneurs by information designer Anna Vital serve as valuable reminders of why you should never give up on your aspirations.

Using famous examples of many well-known startups, the illustrator shows us how their founders started with nothing but ideas, but managed to turn them into some of the most successful businesses on the planet. Also included are various charts and diagrams to inspire anybody who has an amazing idea but doesn't quite know what to do with it. See for yourself in the pictures below, and remember: never give up on your dreams.
