What would be the logic behind the minds of great successful entrepreneurs. Millionaires like Jeff Bezos and Warren Buffett are inspirations for many entrepreneurs. By the way, not only for entrepreneurs, they are idols of young people and adults all over the world.

The fortune of the two rich people came through identifying trends and overcoming obstacles. When it was conceived, Amazon was not an idea believed by many investors. It was in 1997 that Jeff Bezos understood that the internet was growing by leaps and bounds – more than 2000% a year. Likewise, Warren Buffet has tried to identify promising niches with a visionary eye.
It's not about luck, nor would it be just logical calculation. Getting a successful business right requires persistence, constant analysis and an eye toward the long term. All this, without forgetting the small goals to be conquered daily.
Having a brilliant idea while lying down staring at the ceiling isn't something that's going to happen very often. Studying human behavior and its tools and technologies can be a good option. From a deep understanding, it is possible to identify trends and make the right investment.
Even knowing this, there are still those who simply prefer not to take the matter seriously. Almost half of young people are still looking for a traditional profession to pursue. This is what a survey carried out by the World Economic Forum points out. The data were displayed in the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA).
In his presentation at the event, the OECD director of education was concerned.
“Surveys show that many teens are ignoring or simply not learning about new types of jobs that are emerging, particularly as a result of digitalisation,” said Andreas Schleicher.
According to the expert, 39% of traditional jobs run rich to disappear in the future. That future, by the way, is very close – somewhere between 10 and 15 years.
Of course, the risk that some professions run should not be the only factor for decision. Finding what you like to do is always a good way to go. Even doing something that doesn't seem so lucrative, dedication is capable of generating innovative proposals.
New paths and possibilities arise almost daily. At some point one of these paths will come your way (if it hasn't already). The World Economic Forum made a list of 96 professions of the future. She can help in the time of indecision.
