The 6 P’s of the Entrepreneurial Spirit
- Passion. Passion cannot survive without a path.
- Path. This is your plan for getting there, at the pace you set.
- Positivity. No success is possible without cultivating an optimistic perspective.
- People. Without the power of people around you to support you, mentor you, and otherwise love you, your passion will fall flat and your plan will never get done.
- Perseverance. None of these P’s will work if you don’t fuel them with perseverance and hard work.
- Productivity - how you use your time to make it count. Productivity pulls all of the other P’s together and enables you to love your life.

- There's no calculus for knowing when to give up. If pursuing your dream comes at great personal cost to your relationships and other goals in life (which is different from a 'harmonious passion'), that would suggest it was wise to give it up.
- Success is not all or nothing. You may not have fulfilled your dream, but you likely learned much along the way, giving you a chance to redirect your energy and passions in new ways.
Goal adjustment capacity
Psychologists see goal adjustment capacity as a beneficial form of 'self-regulation' or 'self-management.'
It contains two parts:
- The ability to disengage from fruitless goals
- The ability to know when and how to change to new, more productive goals.
Those who are flexible and adaptable are generally happier, perform better. They often get promoted. If you are thinking of giving up your dream, it suggests you have a healthy willingness to adjust and adapt.

“The best performers set goals that are not about the outcome but about the process of reaching the outcome.”
Geoff Colvin
The journey is the destination
We never arrive. We work hard to succeed, and then we have to work twice as hard to maintain that success.
It’s a slow grind. And it starts with our mindset.
Don’t rely on your talent
We all have some type of talent, something that sets us apart from the rest of the world. This can also be a potential trap.
Never just rely on your gift or talent alone. Work on your craft. Investigate your weaknesses and make an effort to minimize them.
