Once you truly find what motivates you, it can have a powerful influence on you.
In grade 7, I found something that truly motivated me. I badly wanted to grow up.
We had a rock band come and play at my school - grown up music. I never forget that feeling of listening to that music. The feeling was such a rush. I felt like I was growing up.
Rock music remained a trigger for me during my teen years and I continue to like it to this day.
Now, what motivates me is the thought of holding my wife for many years and holding my youngest son for only a couple more years as he progresses towards becoming a man.
As you carry out your plan, you must find out what truly motivates you. This step is essential, your drive will fail if you don't have a core reason to help you through the inevitable hard times.
A vague thought of making more money generally isn't enough.
It's ironic that in the pursuit of tangible gain, intangibles such as love, acceptance etc are arguably more important goals and motivators.
Remember that.
Having said, all things being equal, there's nothing wrong with going out and strengthening your position in life and money is a big factor in that!
