I want to have reason in life to push me to the edge to perform to the peak. And my son provides me the fuel to carry on. I have achieved my goals that were made since I was in secondary school. Never did I know that it hurts me.
How can achieving the goals actually hurt me? I was once heard from T Harv Eker saying, ‘It’s not the goal we set is too high to achieve, it’s the goal we set was too low’. I guess there is a certain truth in it.
I was from a very poor family. My father was not having a stable jobs. He was moving from 1 job to another because the companies he work was not stable. He went to neighbouring country to try his luck, but was sent back.
We moved to many places because of my father was working in another states. Siblings were separated, some to the north, some to the south.
So, naturally my goals was small which I had set since secondary school. It was having my own house, my own car and decent stable job and a happy family. I have achieved all those goals couple of years ago. I think about 5 years ago.
After I have achieved these low goals I was contented and life was hanging in mid air. I’m not poor nor rich. So what next? Until I realised it last year, that I want to do something with my life. Make it a second episode or chapter of my life. But I did not found the motivation and the inspiration to do it.
I was lucky to stumble upon some of the best motivational guys that really push me to at least make a change and set a higher target for me and my family. I’m really motivated by Jim Rohn, Tony Robbins, T Harv Eker, Zig ZIglar, Bob Proctor and many more.
Today, I was listening to Anthony Robbins interviewing Jeff Walker in Money Masters. Amazing stuffs, it really moved me. But what touched me the most was last night. My son gave me the most touching inspiration and motivation to push to the limit.
I was asking my 4 year old son to sleep, I said it’s late. He asked me ‘Is it you want to work?’ Is it you want to achieve 1 million? You will buy me the …….. It’s my son knowing that I need to work hard so he doesn’t want to disturb me.
I know, I don’t want to let me son down. I know I will not let him down. It’s a tall asking, it’s really not easy to achieve the millionaire status. But my son gave me every reasons to go for it.
