Re-defining my "Why" for success...

I have been away from the forums for a couple of weeks, so I thought I would post a quick update.

My wife and I had our first child. Anaya Samana was born on June 15th 2010.

As a financial counselor to many US Navy members I get asked many times "How do you become financially successful?" I have always replied that once a person discovers their "why", the hows will fall into place. In a sense, if you have a strong enough reason to be financially successful, you would walk through a brick wall to get there.

I thought I had my Why figured out, that was until I held that baby for the first time. My motivation for towering success has never been stronger and I am looking forward to achieving it faster than I ever thought possible.
