Peer reviewedLipper, Arthur, III – Journal of Creative Behavior, 1989
The paper analyzes fear and hate as motivating forces in entrepreneurship. Fear can drive entrepreneurs, as they attempt to control their fear of poverty, loneliness, and being controlled by others. Hate, such as hatred of sloth and waste or hatred of being told something cannot be done, can also motivate entrepreneurs. (JDD)
