I don't think they necessarily need to be sociopaths, they just need to be so laser-focused on their goals that they ignore everything, and everyone else. And if they have those traits that make them successful, why would they want to give them up?

They might not "want" to, it'd be a side effect of a cure-all longevity treatment (in my scenario).

But laser focus and hard work doesn't mean extraordinary success. It requires a lot of luck, and unethical practices. It's the unethical part that needs cured.
