This paper elaborates on the hypothesis that Apple’s success shall be an inspiration rather than a business model to be imitated by today’s entrepreneurs. Before doing so, this study interconnects the insights of several works of literature about geniuses, talents, personality traits, luck, risks, opportunities, and personal experiences that may affect entrepreneurship. Morgan Housel, Craig Wright, and other scholars’ works, perspectives, theories, and research were used to arrive at conclusions. Using the framework presented in this paper can improve our understanding of the challenges today’s entrepreneurs could face to succeed and how much Apple’s success can influence them in the decision-making process. However, much work remains to be done. Specifically, new theory development work and empirical research are both necessary.
