<p>*But you cannot teach CHARISMA and VISION, which are necessary for effective and true leadership and entrepreneurship. *</p>
<p>I agree.</p>
<p>It also takes a certain personality type, IMHO: confident, driven, a risk taker, willing to put in lonnnnng hours. You’ve got to really want to make a lot of money, and you’ve got to be willing to make tough sacrifices in the process. You’ve got to have that fire in your belly, etc. etc. etc.</p>
<p>I don’t have any of those things. You could teach me about them until your eyes bubble; you still wouldn’t make me into a successful entrepreneur.</p>
<p>It’s like any natural gift. You’ve either got it or you don’t. If you’ve got it, then practical training can help you develop it. But if you don’t have it, then no amount of book-larnin’ will ever give it to you. </p>
<p>IMHO.</p>
