Hey John,
Admire your honesty and determination to succeed. You would already know that academic achievement isnt required for financial success. I have a friend who left school in year 9 (he was at the bottom of all grades) and wasnt getting anywhere.
Well he surprised everyone and had a job for a short while and then started spraying cars in his backyard for money. Then he bought a bobcat and tipper and hasnt worked for anyone else since. He has built that up to a thriving excavation business with turnover in the high single digit millions.
He's now 37 and a multi millionaire with property & business. He realised early on if he needed brains he'd pay for them, infact whatever he needed could be bought. All he needed was the drive to succeed, its that simple.
ps: Excellent post SOS.
What keeps me motivated? Im not really sure, i have never analysed it. Its just what i do and i cant think of any other way of filling my time. I know i want to provide for my kids, thats very important. Beside that i just love the idea of making money.
