Introduction
Entrepreneurship is a heartfelt state that entails inspiration and the capacity of an
individual to recognize a business opportunity and utilize the opportunity to add value or gain a
benefit. Lucian and Sergiu (2019) state that entrepreneurs are individuals that take business risks.
Besides taking risks, entrepreneurs are people that perceive a vision, are dedicated to that
business idea, and support the idea to its effective execution (Amiri & Marimaei 2012). Yan
(2010) notes entrepreneurs’ decision to venture in a new business is predicated upon a person’s
desires and intentions to progress, which in turn, is influenced by one's perception that the
venture is both desirable and possible. Therefore, entrepreneurs are creative, optimistic,
innovative, loves challenges, realistic, likes managing, energetic, self-confident, involved,
committed, and need control (Dvir, Sadeh, Pines, & Shenhar 2009). The report aims at reflecting
on individual entrepreneurial characteristics predicted upon the online psychometric tool —
General Enterprise Tendency test. The report will also provide a brief account of influences on
personal traits from family background, education, and work experience as well as offer an
analysis of one's qualities and the implication of these characteristics for career aspirations.
