Great answers and advice @Ruan De Nysschen and @Brett Snodgrass, answered concerns I had at well.

as who do you watch and read that motivate you going the extra mile.For me I watch and read: Les Brown, Jim Rohn, Tony Robbins, Earl Nightingale, Robert Kiyosaki, Dolf de Roos, Napoleon Hill and more.Would you mind to share the people that inspires you.
