As for me - right now money drives me. I start Uni this September and it's not going to pay for itself. Slowly but surely I'm coming to terms with this, despite the fact that it sucks. Other than that - a desire to change things drives me. What I want to change? Not sure...

Post by: Liberator on June 20, 2004, 08:13:59 pm: Fear. My entire life is a vast equation of fear. I don't get motivated until fear of what will happen if I don't take action possesses a larger value that the fear of what will happen if I do take action. This explains my lack of any social life, a girlfriend/wife, or even a job. The fear of failure at these things prevents me from taking action to correct the deficency.

I fear making friends because I've never really had any close friends.

I fear even making noises about starting a relationship because I'm afraid that I don't have anything to offer a potential partner and, also that I might have to give to much of myself up.

I'm afraid of getting a job with someone else because the last 3 that I had result in me being let go without so much as a goodbye, or in the case of the one where I was there for 4.5 years a weak lie about the failing economy when in reality it was the fact that competition had come into the area.

So there it is, my soul bared before you. What drives me? Fear.

Post by: demon442 on June 20, 2004, 10:32:59 pm: Perhaps, its the same fear that drives many of us? We all experience that flavor of fear, but some are more prone to it than others. Myself included.

Post by: Liberator on June 20, 2004, 11:50:39 pm: You misunderstand, I lack the ability to overcome it. It has been all but trained out of me in my quest to make my superiors pleased with me.
Title: What drives you?
Post by: demon442 on June 20, 2004, 11:57:59 pm: I understand fully. The real difference between us is that I dont let this fear run my life. I cant overcome it, but I can ignore it. There is nothing in this world that cannot be overcome with the proper mental state.

On topic though, Money will get me Sex. Thats how the world works.

Post by: Odyssey on June 21, 2004, 03:00:01 pm: [color=cc9900]The poll is telling. Sleep wins, followed by sex, then money. The german investment bankers would be happy with you guys.

I'm more than a wee bit scared that the "Sex gets me money" option was voted for. Anyone care to own up?[/color]
