People can sometimes tend to be way too hard on themselves. This can come from hearing people tell you all too often that you can be a millionaire, or the CEO, or whatever it is they are trying to make a point with. But what would happen if you were just content with the person you are basically.

Certainly working hard is not a bad thing. You never know if you stopped trying to climb the corporate ladder, and work hard that it may just happen naturally. You can always try setting short term and long term goals. These can be a great motivation.

But please remember that there can be nothing wrong with just being in a normal job, earning a normal living and being happy where you are. Look around you, how many people die rich or end up CEO’s, etc. -not many.
