have met several young people in business recently who believe that they are natural born entrepreneurs, and actually seem to feel that traditional training and experience may be a detriment to their success in this new world. I concede that some natural born skills do exist, but more often I tend to agree with Peter Drucker, who said “It’s not magic, it’s not mysterious, and it has nothing to do with genes. It’s a discipline, and like any discipline, it can be learned.”

Great post. The skills you need to run a business effectively is indeed learned. Most of us have to go through a series of trial and error before we get it "right". Business ownership is always a learning process and it's ongoing. I don't think that we ever ultimately "arrive", we just learn from our mistakes and get wiser with time.

Thanks for sharing this post with our community.

I couldn't have agreed more mate. Entrepreneurship is a skill that anyone can acquire with practice, trial and error. No one is ever born with it and, anyone that thinks that he is born to be an entrepreneur might be making a mistake. Thanks for sharing this with the bizsugar community.
