Try your hand at Tue Dec 14, 2004 19:54 pm  Try your hand at
 

If you try your hand at something, want to see how well you can do in an activity, instead of just watching others.

So, if you try your hand at running a business, you make an attempt to found and manage a company yourself after you have watched other people running their businesses.
