I'm only focussed on succes

Why do you think it is 'so important that you are wealthy'? You have never been wealthy, your family has.

Trust me, that emptiness you talk of, won't be filled when you get money. You are missing something else in your life.

The void you speak of might stem from the fact that think you need this wealth, it might be the cause of the problem, not the solution.

Thanks for your response.

To be honest I think it is so important for me because I have a certain reputation with my friends and I want to maintain that. But as I become older I have to take care for myself. Not that I'm not doing that, but I want to succeed so much because that's what everyone expecting from me.

I agree money won't fill the emptiness, but I think I have to succeed, because that's what everyone is expecting. And that's what's in my head. The need to.

When I don't succeed I fail. I disappoint.

This might be hard to hear or comprehend, but don't let your life be dictated by other people's expectations. Before you know it you will be old and you will realise that you have been chasing something you personally never really wanted, you were only ever trying to live up to someone else's expectations, and you have wasted the majority of your life. Do not let it be too late without realising.

Succes: Trial AND Error.Try to combinate loving girls, having family and money! Thats the way to go, you wont get happy only with money / material.

It's really confusing for me. As last weekend I met a very cute girl. It's very convienent as I opened this topic a few weeks ago.

Just as said here above "wait until you fall in love". I don't know if I'm in love, but I think she's the girl who can change me and give me what I need - in my head.

Once I had this relationship with a girl, but since it's over it seemed like I was emotionless. I didn't care about anyone and only thought about myself and how 'great I am', knowing I'm not.

And now, I'm already so wrong but I think this may change my life and the way I think.

I know she is so sweet, lovingly and 'innocent'. Always thinking the best about people. She's everything I'm not.

And now the wrong thing: she's so damn rich (her parents are). And I don't know where I fall most for, her money or her... fuck me.

Thats funny. I was about to make a thread stating the various ways of being 'rich'. I was gonna state having money is one way, but having lots of good family or friends, and lots of female friends to contact at any time for some loving, is another form of being rich.

Dont focus on making money. Money is a BAD motivator. Focus on the thing, service, product, or the business only. Let the money come to you dont try to chase it.

I suggest not making the relationship between IM or money in general "Personal" it creates demotivating emotions and feelings that could work you right and push you, but it's unhealthy just in general. When I started I was so envious of other people, wanting to be better, etc. But in all honesty it only made me feel worse about the situation presented, I like to think of it as a hobby, because instead of going out I tend to stay home and expanding my knowledge, I may be alone. But i'm not lonely.

Ironically, you point is proven by your own actions.

And now the wrong thing: she's so damn rich (her parents are). And I don't know where I fall most for, her money or her... fuck me.

Simple, do you think of her, or what she can bring into your life?

If you cannot answer that "her" without hesitation, you do not love her.

If you try to chase for how things could be done well, how to serve the customers well, money will come by you making the previous things I mentioned well.
Don't be so money worship, that'll ruin you without doubts.

Thanks for all the responses everyone. This is a great forum.

I will try not to think so much about succes anymore, but it's gonna be so hard. Every moment of the day I think about money and ways to make money - how I can increase my income to make my dreams come true.

It's hard to know what I really want in life.
