Not that I have heaps of experience to base this on, but here's my general thoughts on a good strategy:

    while(0 == ideas.good_ideas.count ||
        FAIL == start_company(&ideas, &experience)) {

        // no ideas, or failed startup
        while(THRESHOLD > experience.why_failed.confidence ||
            0 == ideas.good_ideas.count) {
            
            // no ideas, and/or not sure why startup failed
            work_in_leadership_for_young_but_successful_company(&experience, &ideas);
        }
    }

    // would be interested to read more articles on
    // what goes here
    end_game();

I think employment for the sake of being a better entrepreneur is a great strategy, but only if you can find the right role, and only if you approach it with the correct frame of mind.
