I think the transition from being an employee to being an entrepreneur is difficult, because of the different skill sets required. In a company, you usually have a specified role, with the hard problems mostly figured out by the people before you, and it's just up to you to execute your assigned tasks.

Entrepreneurship is really the full stack of trying to find a problem and solving it along with all the details of running a business.

The skills that mark a great employee do not necessarily translate to being a great entrepreneur. Of course there are many skills can be applied to both positions but often, you'll have to develop new habits and form new neurological paths when transitioning to an entrepreneur.
