I know in the book Unscripted MJ talks about why its important to have a meaning-and-purpose:

While rewritten 3Bs inspire starting, your meaning-and-purpose and its motivation cycle inspire finishing.

I also know without meaning I will give up too early, fail to finish and give up three feet from gold.

From spending some time on this forum I understand that the market is a selfish little brat. So my meaning and purpose shouldn't matter to them.

Why is it so important to have one I have written some whys but I guess they are not strong enough to get me to finish

Here are my whys:
  • To experience the best this life has to offer
  • Not being limited in the things I can do
  • Ease the burden for my mother
  • Prove my father wrong
  • To start dating
  • Be able to buy girls I like nice things
  • Support the things I like
  • To go into a store and know I can buy anything I want in there without having to worry
  • Start taking care of my life/health
  • Not have to keep track of what I spend
  • Be a role model to friends and family.
  • To become an Actor
  • UNSCRIPTION—never needing to work another day in your life
Maybe its because I haven’t had the coveted FTE it just doesn’t hurt bad enough for me.
