Why I believe I (and you) will succeed

This is for personal motivation but may encourage others

   I am not money-hungry but I do hunger for new challenges and experiences

   I am no stranger to sacrifice and discomfort

   I believe to have a fair balance of personal desires/dreams and compassion and empathy

   I do not jump in. I torment, plan, anticipate, calculate, rethink and start all over again every day

   Then I jump in and never look back

Thanks for reading, feel free to add your thoughts!!

That's awesome brother! I remember growing up hearing the word ambitious (in Spanish 'ambicioso') used as a bad word, and later in life at church taught to forego materialism. Now I've figured out those teachings extinguish the potential each one of us was born with. 

The money is not the goal but, like you said, to build something great wherein others will benefit as well.

Thanks for your words
