Z = Zeal

(Our premise is this:  If plan A fails you still have twenty-five other options.)

 Zeal is our “Z” word, and what a great one to end on.  Look at the synonyms associated with this powerhouse.

Enthusiasm
  Passion
    Fanaticism
      Fervor
        Ardor
          Keenness
            Eagerness

Can you name even one successful enterprise that lacked for zeal?  I can’t.  Zeal is the fuel that fires the drive mechanism that builds the dream.

Zeal is focused fanaticism mixed with a huge dose of fervor, and stirred together with ardor and eagerness in equal portions and then baked to a golden brown. 

And when it comes out, look out.  Get out of the way, for an enterprise or person with zeal is someone to be reckoned with.

Zeal burns the midnight oil
Zeal wakes one up at 4AM
Zeal dreams constantly of the end result
Zeal compels one to seek mentors and wise minds in his field of interest
Zeal drives one to perfect when others settle for good enough

Zeal is …
  Determination
    Focus
      Forceful
        Tenacious
          Has fortitude
            Ever seeking solutions

Got ‘zeal’ for your enterprise? 

You need it, above all other traits; you need this one in bushels and basketfuls.
