A little greed can help...

This title may seem controversial, but I was just reading 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' and came across the idea that greed is a fantastic antidote to laziness.

When you are too lazy to exercise....ask yourself...'what's in it for me'..and the answer will be health, energy, better sleep, nicer body and so on.

When it comes to working online....especially if you work from home, it can be easy to get lazy, and so I have begun to ask myself in those moments when it would be easier to simply putter around the house....if I go to work...'whats in it for me?'

It is an excellent motivator is those 'not-so-motivated' times.

So when you are feeling lazy...answer the question....'whats in it for me?'.

(Thanks to Rich Dad Poor Dad for this advice)

    Interesting, but I don’t feel it to be greedy to want something better or to work hard for something. I view it as highly motivated!
