Over the past several episodes, we are learning about purpose and entrepreneurship by referencing the example or the life of Elon Musk. He might be American now but that doesn't stop us from seeing some general life purpose principles in his entrepreneurship that can be applied all over.
Of course, Musk has been identified as a very gritty person indeed. In today's episode, let us learn about the two types of passion coming from Elon Musk's story. Listen to this.

As much as religious people would want or even peddle the idea that life is black and white, soon enough you realize that there are many shades of gray involved in it. Look at the most popular meme or the picture of success for instance.
It shows us that there are detours, uncertainties, unexpected interruptions and all. At times, in our purpose and entrepreneurship journeys, a detour is probably just what we need. Listen to this.

Elon Musk is the example I am using in this series. What can we learn from the SpaceX CEO about purpose and entrepreneurship? Obviously, there is quite a lot. But I would tell you this: Musk's success is highly connected to his purpose.
As such, we can learn a thing or two from him. In this episode, we talk about pushing our limits. Well, whereas talk is cheap, the reality is that Musk epitomizes this trait. Listen to this.

The more I think and talk about it, the more I am convinced that entrepreneurship is directly connected to purpose. If we took Elon Musk as our case study, we will notice certain strong aspects of purpose in all his entrepreneurial pursuits.
Therefore, one major thing we can learn from this stellar visionary is the idea of dreaming on purpose and around purpose and sticking with those dreams to the hilt. Listen to this.

When I sat down with Richard Ssebaggala, we had an interesting discussion that was centered around his perception in life most especially about how one can make sense of it.
We talked about personal awareness as one of those critical aspects of life that an individual needs to make sense of their lives. Our discussion did not miss on Richard's story growing up, well as his take on schooling and parenting.
It's one of the richest discussions I have had in this segment of the podcast. Listen to this.

I see organizations thinking that corporate social responsibility is one of the ways that they can show they are a company of purpose. Nothing can be further from the truth.
Purpose is not an afterthought. It is not an appendage. It is not something that you do now that you have money. It actually is something you start doing even before you make money. We are learning that big time folks like Elon Musk's entrepreneurship is 100% connected to purpose. Listen this.

"Guys, what business can I start with one thousand dollars?" Haven't you heard that question like a million times in your life time? The interesting thing is that our next door entrepreneur didn't start that way.
In fact, you would be hard pressed to find an entrepreneur who started their journey by not knowing what exactly they wanted. Actually, entrepreneurship is not primarily about money. Yes, money is high up there with oxygen but it's not the nucleus of entrepreneurship. Listen to this.

I believe that one of the main reasons for our lives is to be effective with it. One can even argue that apart from being effective, there is no other major reason for our lives.
I have argued severally over the past eight episodes that the purpose of life is not necessarily to be happy. Purpose presupposes that someone else created you with an intention of what you should do. That's what effectiveness is all about. Listen to this.

No man is an island. When we are talking about a life of effectiveness there will be quite a number of elements in place that will help you and I to be effective.
Certainly, we will need each other. Even if I am a genius in my own right, I cannot negate the fact that I am not complete in and of myself. I need you to be effective and cover my blind side.
Listen to this.

To be effective in life is something that varies from one person to the next, but at the end of the day, effectiveness is what we are talking about. It amazes me how each of us can be unique in our effectiveness and yet we are raised and schooled in sameness.
That being said, there are still the non negotiable pillars of effectiveness that apply to everyone just the same. Just as it is impossible to be effective without passion, purpose, and planning, it is the same without persistence. Listen to this.
