Abstract

The paper's aim is to determine the relationship between entrepreneurship and addiction. Our study findings verify that entrepreneurs demonstrate indications of addictive behavior such as obsessive ideas, duration of withdrawal-condensation, and adverse emotion. Similar to conduct as addictive as gambling or the Internet, serial entrepreneurs may experience adverse effects due to the desire to proceed. The paper will guide future job that requires individuals with addictions to demonstrate that they can perform in distinct fields in terms of conduct or substance abuse
