ceiling of achievement the moment they’re holding one. If the
outcome of your efforts is acceptable at whatever level of
achievement you reach, then you high-five and move on. But when
you’re going about your ONE Thing, any ceiling of achievement must
be challenged, and this requires a different approach— a Purposeful
approach.
Highly productive people don’t accept the limitations of their
natural approach as the final word on their success. When they hit a
ceiling of achievement, they look for new models and systems, better
ways to do things to push them through. They pause just long enough
to examine their options, they pick the best one, and then they’re right
back at it. Ask an “E” to cut some firewood and the Entrepreneurial
person would likely shoulder an axe and head straight for the woods.
On the other hand, the Purposeful person might ask, “Where can I get
a chainsaw?” With a “P” mindset, you can achieve breakthroughs and
accomplish things far beyond your natural abilities. You must simply
be willing to do whatever it takes.
