It's your mindset that determines the effectiveness of the tooling
Thanks to Eric Ries, Alexander Osterwalder, Steve Blank and many others we now have a brilliant set of multiple tools that facilitate getting started and even entrepreneurial behavior in a corporate setting.
What I believe is that the entrepreneurial mindset and the way you use the tooling determine the effectiveness of your energy put in your work.
I am willing to share the Effectuation theory and how this applies in practice. If you are unfamiliar with effectuation, please check out www.effectuation.nl and discover what most of us do unconsciously and have never been taught. Become conscious effectuators and effectiveness and energy with go through the roof! Stop planning for growth! Co-create it starting from available means!

While Lean Startup and the tools around it are great for avoid failure, I've found Effectuation is equally great for finding viable opportunities. Like with Lean Startup, I often find people get excited when they find out about Effectuation - a framework that echoes our experience, but gives us a clearer way to making use of it.
This clarity has helped build Leancamp and Founder Centric. What I like about Effectuation is it cuts through some of our false assumptions about entrepreneurship, like "you should focus on one goal," giving us evidence that it's okay to keep a few things in our sights.
