THE 5 COMPONENTS OF THE MINDSET THAT WILL LET YOU LIVE YOUR DREAM
LIFE
Entrepreneurial genius Walt Disney perhaps said it best when he declared, “If
you can dream it, you can do it.”
Action might take you places, but action coupled with an entrepreneurial mindset
will give you the power to create a life of your choosing. The first step toward any
endeavor is the imagination and idea to dream up a new endeavor.

The status quo was once horses, until Ford envisioned something unheard of:
the automobile. The norm was computers the size of entire rooms, until
microprocessors and personal computers were dreamed up.
You can’t get to new horizons without some dreams, but you’ll need the mindset
to take you to the destination because you’ll encounter countless bumps along the
way. Here are five steps to success for an entrepreneurial mindset that will allow you to
do the things that create your dreams.
As Suze Orman says in her book, Women and Money, “Blame renders you
powerless. Shame only serves to hold you back.” This is a key step in the
entrepreneurial journey where you take full accountability for your actions. It’s not that
employee’s fault for not getting their job done, it’s yours for hiring that employee and
allowing them to fall short. It’s not the fault of the economy, society or government, it’s
wholly up to you.
That’s the entrepreneurial mindset and that’s why you will always see individuals,
despite economics, geography, circumstances and gender massively succeeding.
These are people who have decided they are committed to their success and being
accountable 100 percent to themselves.
4. Passion is my drug.
The success mindset is fueled on an endless supply of endorphin-enabling
passion. You don’t need drugs, caffeine or any other addiction to get you psyched for
the day. You’re high on this life you’re creating, moment to moment and stoked to be a
part of this lifestyle.
As Whit Hobbs said, “Success is waking up in the morning, whoever you are,
wherever you are, however old or young, and bounding out of bed because there’s
something out there that you love to do, that you believe in, that you’re good at --
something that’s bigger than you are, and you can hardly wait to get at it again today.”
The entrepreneur's success mindset is driven by pure passion for a dream.
