Some people read the self-help/motivation/finance books, watch the videos, and then they never watch it again. For a day or two, they are motivated... but after that, it's back to the normal life.

I have found myself obsessed with working on projects, and an overall obsession with simply achieving. Knowing that if I work hard enough anything can happen, it's almost like a natural high... watching my progress and getting feedback/comments from people.


This is literally all I think about anymore. Obviously I still go out with friends, live a normal life in the sense that I can function normally, but this is really stuck in my mind and I think it will be even after I reach my goals.

So what about you guys?

Obsessed is the word the unsuccesful use for 'determination'.

With that said, yes, I am obsessed. My work is my life. And if others look down on me because of that, so be it!

I'm 100% obsessed. I have no idea how you could make work something like what I am trying to achieve, without being obsessed.

Obsession a far better thing than most people credit.

Obsessed is how the lazy describe commitment.

Knowing that if I work hard enough anything can happen, it's almost like a natural high

Once people experience this high, going back to a job is virtually impossible.

Being kind of obsessed has cost me some friendships, as i am interested in discussing projects, ideas, etc, not discussing luxury cars, soccer, women ....... And few people can tune up with me so to say
