For some, learning new skills is more important than starting a business; for others, it's the other way around. Ask yourself:
1. Do you have an idea that you want to pursue? If so, then starting a business is probably what you should do first. If not, then learning a skill is probably your best bet.
2. How much time do you have? If it's limited (and most people's time is), then it would be better to learn something rather than start a business right away if the former takes less time.
3. Are you looking for something with more security or flexibility? Starting a business could provide both of these things depending on its type and how much effort goes into maintaining it, whereas learning something might only provide one or neither depending on what's being learned and how much effort goes into learning it.
