Extremely tied to work and continuous work without interruption are often referred to as overwork. This situation emerges as an excessive and uncontrollable need to influence one's health, happiness and relationships with others in the negative direction. Workholism is seen as a positive behavior for both the individual and the organization according to some scientists, but it is a psychological discomfort according to some scientists. Entrepreneurial individuals are innovative, risk-taking, change-focused, focused on opportunities and creative. In addition to these, according to personality characteristics of entrepreneurs, advanced communication skills, openness to change, high desire for success and determination are also included.
