Motivation

I have a wonderful wife and two children that mean the world to me. I have a mother that has always been there for me and now needs me to be there for her. They are what motivate me, make me strive to be a better person, and to succeed in life.


I believe for most people, there is a defining moment that makes them reflect on things. For me, it was the movie “Saving Private Ryan.” At the end, as Tom Hanks’ character is dying after saving Private Ryan, he looks at him and tells him to “Earn this. Earn it!” I realize that I have been given much in life, and strongly feel that it’s time that I “earn it.”

To this end, I have ventured out as a new business owner, stretching my boundaries and challenging myself to do more with my life. What about you? What motivates you? And more importantly, what have you done about it? Feedback encouraged.
