Entrepreneurial Path

 I have had a lot of great ideas in my life and dreamed of how I could make them a success. One thing I hadn't considered was the need to gain real world experience in the field in which I want to pursue these great ideas. It is important to develop the skills necessary for a specific field and have experience working through projects and solving problems in this field as well. This would allow me to gain the necessary experience to make my venture a success. Otherwise, without it, I would essentially be starting from ground zero. This is a much more costly and difficult way to start a business. Another really important reason to work in a field before going into business for myself in that field is the priceless advantage of becoming acquainted with professionals, as well as suppliers and other company representatives that could guide me through my process of creating a business in the same field eventually. Essentially, the foundation of a successful business would be laid during the formative years of your career. The key people that will help you build that future business are the people you will meet and work with in your career. The knowledge and expertise you will need is obtained at this time as well. Thus, a successful business person will most likely follow the path of career build to eventual entrepreneurial venture. This makes the most sense and is the path of greatest potential for a future entrepreneur.
