A lot of us have had that experience!

I've realized that I will never be happy in a traditional job. Being subservient and following orders is not in my nature.

This is a good thing to realise, but on the flip side do be aware that it's possible to work with a team without being subjected to a top-down, prescribed style of management. A collaborative team environment can be sought or created, and you can achieve a lot more a lot quicker with a good team than alone. Best of luck finding your groove.
