ARE YOU TOO COMFORTABLE?
This is a bit of a strange question but one I think many of us have asked ourselves. Lets be honest if you made it onto these forums you at least have sense enough to recognise good information when you see it. I don't attest to being a motivational powerhouse and rarely have the motivation to clean my room let alone go out and try to come up with business ideas. But this hasn't always been the case.
I have always had an issue with motivation even with small things, I know now that this is due in part to having a mild form of autism but that's another story.
What I am talking about its being too comfortable in life. The times I've always been the most motivated has been when someone lit a figurative fire under me but its been by someone else or by circumstance. in one of @Vigilante 's threads he gave the example of a dog lying on a hardwood floor but the spot he was laying had a nail and so the dog would lay there and wimper at the nail but not move. This was simply because the nail wasn't enough of a bother for him to move he was too comfortable. The pain of having to go to a job or always wishing you had more in your bank balance wasn't enough of a driving force to get him off the nail.
And this is where I find myself, how how do you lit a figurative fire under you when you have less motivation to change then a hardcore republican.
