Been working through Covey's "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" plus workbook. Personal mission statement drafted - problem is, middle class European upbringing, handed everything on a plate, no personal accountability or hunger. Financial stability guaranteed for life by parents so lack drive to excel.
Feel unfulfilled, and slothful.
Non-practicing RC,but a believer.Single, straight, work 20 hrs a week in tourism, little bit sports coaching, 3 hours voluntary teaching English to immigrants.
Honours degree, various professional qualifications but have failed to put 100% effort into anything.
Tried, with short term success, laying costly bets with pals that would trigger payment if I failed to log x hours work/study.
Thinking now of incorporating spiritual/religious element to motivation.
Have always admired American discipline and work ethic. Any ideas ?
I exercise regularly and have good cardio fitness, 6"1, 160 lbs..if anything a bit underweight.
