Will this doom me to failure?

After listening to dozens of podcasts, and reading numerous real estate investing blogs and books I'm concerned that the following will doom me to failure.

I'm not interested in traveling and I don't salivate over quotes.

I've noticed repeatedly that real estate investing masters love nothing more than going on a vacation, and it just doesn't do it for me. Traveling to me is a PITA that I do sparingly.

And quotes? They're often interesting and sometimes pretty deep for their brevity, but ultimately they are as forgettable as a Justin Timberlake song. I was never inspired by those motivational posters popularized in the late 90s either, and instead had many a belly laugh at the demotivational posters that they inspired.

Am I just too boring and jaded to have success?
