If you're a senior in college right now, the best advice I can give you is to take an idea you have (even if it's not your best) and try to execute it. Even if you don't ever launch, you'll learn a lot about starting a business and getting from the initial idea phase, to design, to launching, to (hopefully) making money. That sort of knowledge is invaluable.
I'm several years out of university myself and just now getting a few of my side projects to that point. It's exciting, but I can't help but worry that I'm behind the curve. Tinkering and design comes fairly naturally to me, but everything else that goes with entrepreneurship ... not so much.

There is no curve. Comparing yourself to others based on age and level of startup success isn't a good comparison. I used to do this to myself a lot, and it only causes pointless anxiety. The only curve that matters is your curve.
