TRIP Tip Bonus Video #5
Tenacity = Strength of Purpose
Hi Keith Renninson “the Tenacity Expert”
here with a new video on my TRIP System. Remember that TRIP stands for: tenacity, resilience, imagination, and purpose.
- How strong are your purposes in your life?
- Do you have what it takes to see them through to a successful completion?
- How dense is your conviction?
Sometimes I use a thesaurus to help me look for words that are synonymous for a topic I want to write about. Today, I saw a comparison that I’d not seen before, tenacity was listed with “strength of purpose”.
That fit in perfectly with what I’ve been teaching with these videos for over a year. TRIP obviously includes both tenacity and purpose.
- Do you have a high tensile score or a weak one?
- How strong are you?
- How strong do you want to be might be the better question?
Tenacity is that trait that pushes you on when others start to fall by the wayside. It’s that feeling deep inside that tells you that you can accomplish this, you have what it takes and to keep going because the end result is something that you really desire.
Having purpose in life makes it worth living. Having tenacity (strength of purpose) ensures that you will be successful in whatever you pursue. Sure, there will be failures along the way and the purpose may alter in some small ways, but if you keep the specifics firmly planted in your mind
the payoff will be seeing it come to life long after your peers gave up hope.
Well, that’s it for this blog, I hope you will give some thought to your “strength of purpose”
and be tenacious
in your drive to success. Have you checked out my TRIP Technique (TM)

Remember to take a TRIP for a lifetime, not a trip of a lifetime.
Goodbye,

Keith Renninson's Tenacity Blog

This is the second in a series of four on team building with TRIP. Remember, in my last blog I shared that it would be performed in reverse with “purpose” first and now we will implement the “imagination” section.
Imagination is probably the most fun of the character traits of TRIP. I love it because I can immerse myself in creativity and play!

How can TRIP help with team building you ask? By using it backwards! Huh? Yup, we will start with “Purpose” instead of Tenacity. The series will move from purpose to imagination, to resilience, and lastly to tenacity. When you look at TRIP from this reverse perspective it becomes clear that it flows naturally in team building and task completion. As with any project you must know your purpose first, so that’s where we will start.
