Paul Graham of Y Combinator published a great explanation the most important quality of an entrepreneur: “The Anatomy of Determination.” Here’s a quote from the post.

So here in sum is how determination seems to work: it consists of willfulness balanced with discipline, aimed by ambition. And fortunately at least two of these three qualities can be cultivated. You may be able to increase your strength of will somewhat; you can definitely learn self-discipline; and almost everyone is practically malnourished when it comes to ambition.

If you think you’re an entrepreneur, you owe it to yourself, yourself, your family, your employees, your imvestors, and your customers to read this.
