If you have enough passion..enough desire...if you want it badly enough.. most anything you set your sights on you can achieve.

The trick is to discover what you truly want and then your true reason/s for wanting to accomplish whatever it is you want.

Once you discover that, a daily review of why you want something and what you're going to get by achieving it will absolutely ignite your afterburners to make it happen.

Ask yourself ...What do I want? Why do I want it? Why MUST I have it? What's it going to get me? What's it going to do for me? What's it going to make possible for me?

"And if this downturn teaches us anything, I hope it teaches us that there are things far more valuable than money, but my guess is that some people will lower their standards and morals to make ends meet."

I could not have said it better. My hope is that we'll learn to identify those things which hold true value because they cannot be replaced. It may be a hard road for some, but as everything, society seeks balance and we've been tipping the scales for a long while now.


There is a difference between being handed a million dollars and earning a million dollars. The person who earns it makes more jobs. The person who is given it, begs for more.


I used to be motivated by the money, but as I matured, different story all together, finally life has clear purpose. Excellent post, so much thought went into it. Anna


Sorry I haven't been around but I've been AWOL. Money is actually a poor motivator and a worse reason to feel compelled to do a deed. We work for money because we must and many of us see the needs of our families. But money to achieve other goals---maybe it's me, but it doesn't work. I used to smoke and someone paid me to stop. I quit for a month. I did it for the money, not because I wanted to quit. When I did quit, I did it cold turkey and I haven't smoked at all in 18 years. The desire had to be there. Money has its limitations. I remember dating a guy who was pure garbage. My sister offered me a hundred dollars to stop seeing him. I didn't take the offer and it was good, because I would have reneged.

Right now I have tension with one of my siblings because I owe him money--not a lot, but he wants it and I don't have it. He wouldn't accept a payment plan--he wants the chunk and I can't do that or he would have been paid off two years ago. Is it worth having family tension over money? Of course not. But people choose their idol. And if this downturn teaches us anything, I hope it teaches us that there are things far more valuable than money, but my guess is that some people will lower their standards and morals to make ends meet.
