Don't try, do.

Learn by doing. First build a safety net Because you'll probably get the first 10 ideas dead wrong.

I have a friend who has an aversion to bosses who is a successful realtor. He works for a company but in general calls his own shots.

Someone I know owns two apartment buildings, small ones. She bought them when she was working as an accountant for a big company. She has retired at 40ish and now manages the apartments.

Entrepreneur but only if you can:

1. Solve a problem people are willing to spend $$ on.

2. Handle uncertainty well.

3. Are comfortable selling.

4. Have relational skills

Lots of people with poor self regulation/Napoleon complexes/inability to concentrate etc. can’t stand having a boss. That doesn’t mean they should be entrepreneurs.

Get a job with growth potential where your position makes other people money. Stay at it for five years to become an expert and build a network. Then start your own business advising others or freelancing projects.

Forget pie in the sky dream ideas. Got have knowledge, relationships, time and capital to be successful in your own business. If you don’t have these then the business will likely fail quickly and or slowly drain the above resources limiting your options for a new endeavor.
