The Link Between Entrepreneurship and Mental Health Conditions

Entrepreneurship has long been associated with traits like risk-taking, persistence, and creativity. It’s no surprise, then, many of the world’s most successful companies were brought to life by neurodivergent founders.

Neurodivergence refers to natural differences in brain function among individuals with conditions such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and bipolar disorder. As this 2019 study demonstrates, entrepreneurs appear to experience mental health and addiction issues more frequently than the general public, and tend to have families with these illnesses at a higher rate.

Nearly half of entrepreneurs included in the study have one or more mental health conditions. Below the are the numbers for four of the conditions studied.

	Entrepreneurs	General Sample Group
ADHD	29%	5%
Depression	30%	15%
Bipolar	11%	1%
Addiction	12%	4%

The research also looked at anxiety, but found that levels were similar between entrepreneurs and the sample group.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), dyslexia, and Asperger’s Syndrome, which are not included in this research, are other noteworthy conditions that are sometimes connected with entrepreneurship.

Asperger’s, in particular, is present in a number of successful founders, including Elon Musk and Bill Gates. Peter Thiel, billionaire investor and serial entrepreneur, has argued that this mild version of autism could be an asset in founding successful companies.

An Open Question

There are two competing ideas around the link between entrepreneurship and mental health conditions.

First, some posit that traits associated with mental health conditions (e.g. hyperfocus for ADHD, or attention to detail for Asperger’s) are assets in the startup world.

Secondly, it is also thought that because neurodivergent individuals have more trouble succeeding in conventional frameworks in academia and business, they are more likely to forge their own path by founding companies and pursuing self-employment.

It’s entirely possible that both these ideas are true. The more research that is published around mental health and entrepreneurship, the clearer view we have on the traits associated with creating successful businesses.

The more open the conversation is around mental health, the more we can create conditions in the workplace that empower neurodivergent individuals.

Urban Slang Dictionary: Online Acronyms, Phrases and Idioms

The evolution of language in relation to internet culture

The rise of web-based technologies, online chatting, mobile texting, email and instant messaging have all helped shape the way we communicate. Short-form words, acronyms, phrases, and memes have almost helped contribute to the development of a whole new language that defines Internet culture.

Today, this so-called «Internet language» is as popular as ever and virtually second nature in use amongst Internet users.

Why Do People Use Internet Slang?

Unlike writing an A+ English essay on Shakespeare, Internet slang has two common goals, which often overthrow proper spelling and grammar:

To express emotion: It’s obvious that expressing emotion through written text can be difficult. Internet slang words and acronyms help you tell people that we are happy, sad, amused, angry, confused or surprised. For example, «Wowzers» is a silly term used to convey surprise. The acronym,»LOL,» which stands for «laugh out loud,» is one of the most common acronyms used on the Internet. Often, users will incorporate textual emoticons like «:)» or «:(» to represent expressive human faces and emotions. GPOY is a sarcastic state of self-attention, «Gratuitous Pictures of Yourself.» Playful, if self-aware.

To speed up communication: You live in a busy world, and you don’t have time much time to waste typing out the message you’d like to send to your friends, family or colleagues. Typing a message usually takes longer than saying it verbally, which is why Internet slang and short-form words are used to get the message in writing as quickly as possible. It’s a quick and convenient way to communicate on the web.

The Internet Slang Dictionary of Choice: Urban Dictionary

There are quite a few sites out there that list popular Internet words and phrases, but there’s nothing that quite compares to the Urban Dictionary. The Urban Dictionary is literally an Internet slang dictionary, which can be accessed by anyone online.

Urban Dictionary contains over 10.5 million Internet slang definitions. Anybody can suggest and submit a word and definition, which are reviewed by editors to be published on the site. Once a word is published, visitors can view and rate them.

If you come across any slang words on the web, you can almost be certain that the definition can be found by searching for it on the Urban Dictionary website.

Taking the Blame for Bad Grammar and Spelling

Although short-form wording and acronyms help us get the job done faster and more conveniently, time spent communicating through social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and texting on cell phones is being blamed for poor spelling and grammar skills with regards to today’s youth. For example, words like «shawty» (which is an alternative form of «shorty») are spelled more like they sound in casual conversation.

While the link between modern-day Internet lingo and deteriorating grammar skills has not been officially proven on a scientific basis, education institutions in Canada and the U.S. are seeing a sharp drop in proper English writing.

In an article published by the Globe and Mail, an English professor and associated dean at Simon Fraser University stated:

“Punctuation errors are huge, and apostrophe errors. Students seem to have absolutely no idea what an apostrophe is for. None. Absolutely none.”

Abbreviations, lowercase words that should be capitalized and neglectful proofreading are other common mistakes that are blamed on social media and SMS texting.

Once I was told that language was a living thing i.e. it is changing all the time especially the English language.

Back then, it didn’t make much sense to me. But now I’m convinced of that since I’ve seen how the English language has coined and added many new words to its corpora with the advent of the Internet and new technology.

This lesson was really helpful.

Asmer Pashayeva

Hi Morfik,

Let’s start with:
1) “Almost two years later, the report has yet to be delivered.”—…the report has not yet been delivered.
“To this day, officials have yet to provide key details, including exactly how many machines were compromised…”—… officials have not yet provided key details…

You’re right about the negative connotations. However, by saying have yet to… instead of have not yet…, the implication is that the action is still expected and awaited.

2) I’m sorry to say that native speakers make grammar mistakes all the time. Basically, use I, you, he, she, we, they in the subject position, and me, you, him, her, us, them in the object position.
He and I want to visit you and her.

3) LOL. The Americans like to butcher the language at times. It comes from ‘haven’t got’.
It would have been even worse if they’d have said “We ain’t got no…”

4) Nope. If you literally meant two beers, then it would be a plural construct. If you are referring to the idea of drinking alcohol, then it can be singular. (soon there will be a lesson posted on collective nouns that will explain this a bit more)

Hi BlackCorsair,

Good question. In this case I am using ‘the lesson’ as a reference point for a clear event that happened in a recognizable past, and so can use the simple tense. I can also use the perfect tense, but in casual situations I would go with the simple.

Does this help?

Adam



I think I get it, but not completely =)
I would be very grateful if you could give me some examples (with explanation).

BlackCorsair



OK. If I say “In high school I studied very hard” you can understand that ‘high school’ is not a specific time, but rather a situation. That situation implies a specific time (high school = 14-18 years old).
When I say “Did you understand the lesson?” the lesson is a situation that just happened. You know which lesson I mean, so it is specific enough that I can use the past simple. If I ask you about other lessons of mine, I would use “have you understood my lessons?” because it’s a more general question. If I ask “did you understand my lesson on writing?” I can go back to the simple tense because it is more specific and you know when I gave that lesson and which lesson.

Is this a little better?

Adam



Yep) That’s pretty good explanation.
Now everything is clear.
Thank you very much for all your help, Adam!

Actually, if you listen very carefully, the ‘t’ is pronounced in respect. The ‘k’ sound is just stronger and so ‘drowns out’ the ‘t’. As for facts and effects, the t+s combine to sound like the ‘zz’ in pizza, rather than a clear and separate t and s.
