- Plan - a multiyear plan or a very concerted plan over 6 to 12 months
- Resources - time, money and other sacrifices for an unknown outcome
- Enduring Grit - perseverance and passion for long-term goals, the confidence to take risks
A dream to graduate from college, a big idea for a cancer cure and a breakthrough innovation like Apple's iPhone may sound like they have little in common. Yet the fundamental Enablement process to make them happen is similar. Castellina in Tuscany, Italy and New York are two entirely different destinations, yet traveling process to get there using planes, automobiles and GPS devices could be the same.
