What is the best transition to enhance entrepreneurial skills?

Hey all, currently working in Big 4 Audit, engaged on a Fortune 25 client, just finishing my first year. I initially chose accounting and Big 4 audit because I thought it would enhance my business acumen with the end goal of becoming a skilled entrepreneur, but I'm finding it to be dry and not nearly as fast-paced as I'd like. I've finished the CPA Exam already and will be licensed soon. What is a better next step for me to begin solidifying the skills I want to improve on, the ones that will enable me to become a better entrepreneur in the future?
