Dude, you're a great guy, but when I read posts like this it seems like you're searching for external motivation and validation when those things have to come from within.
The way I see it, you're comfortable and you don't know exactly what you want. So you never get motivated to really go after it and therefore you can't experience any level of success that might let you feel validated and motivate you to continue when you reach the point of discomfort and beyond.
Even getting clear about what you want is uncomfortable because it requires serious thought and action to write it down. But as long as comfort is prioritized over discomfort, this loop continues.
Maybe someone will chime in and tell you it will be okay. Maybe it will be if this is all you want from life. But let me ask you this, assuming you die someday, would this thread be a satisfying eulogy for you?
"Here's all the things I didn't do and all the people I failed. What I learned from it was??? What I did about it was???"
Your motivation to figure out what you want from life, and to take any steps to get it, has to come from inside you. Donating INSIDERS subs feels good and rewards you, but doesn't motivate or validate you.
Imagine how many more subs you could donate with a lot of money. Not the bank's money, but your own.
Sometimes I wonder if you've considered letting your desire to give fuel your business pursuits. Who would you give to if you had an international non-profit? Even non-profits can be fastlane. I dunno, maybe that's something to explore in the future.
I'm not mad at you. I want you to succeed and I'm glad you're comfortable right now.
You have to decide if that's enough for you.
- Paying for courses didn't motivate you.
- Working with respected forum members didn't motivate you.
- Quitting your job didn't motivate you.
- Taking out a loan to go to the summit didn't motivate you.
- Buying all those INSIDERS subs didn't validate you
