If it causes procrastination, that's a problem. Seems to me, being an entrepreneur requires high levels of self discipline, vs working in some big org where you get told what to do and held to it. I worked at a start-up where my boss who was one of the founders, didn't do what needed doing if it didn't interest him. Suffice to say, the company wasn't ultimately successful. Its understandable that with ADHD people seek to escape the strait-jacket of the conventional workplace, and find somewhere that they can tailor more to their way of working, but I'd caution about entrepreneurship, might be even worse. And if you don't get on with "what you're meant to be doing" you then don't get paid. Whereas in conventional job its easier to work your a* off the next day if you faffed about and had nothing to show one day.
