Passion and Entrepreneurship

Summary

Say the word entrepreneur, and the notion of passion inevitably follows close on its heels. The word immediately brings to mind someone so over-the-moon on fire about what they’re doing that they can’t sit still. Passion is the essence of the entrepreneurial spirit. It is an entrepreneur’s fuel, providing the drive and inspiration to create something out of nothing, enduring all the risks, uncertainty and bumps in the road that that entails.

This chapter takes a look at the role passion plays in entrepreneurial success and offers ideas on consciously leveraging the energy that passion brings with it.
