Personal opinion --- the most important characteristics of a potential entrepreneur is someone who feels like they just don't fit into corporate society --- mostly made up of sociopaths and their fiefdom of lackeys and suck ups.

Unless you're a sociopath skilled at manipulating others and taking credit for their work, you're probably not going to get ahead --- assuming that "ahead" is worth the effort to get there.

Otherwise, being a lackey it is. And if you don't really have an affinity for sucking up, the sad fact is there may not be a really good role for you.

So out of sheer necessity and determination --- a potential entrepreneur is born.
