Grew up with so little and had to fight my way through every dam thing alone.
I'm a skinny twink and will never bench 250? I show up benching 275.
I'm a broke cheapskate? I will show up in a ferarri.
Chip on shoulder mindset. Many sports fans will lust over athletes such as Jordan and Kobe for having that killer mindset. Unfortunately, it doesn't translate to the real world.

After living this way my entire life, I realize it is an addiction. All my goals are created to prove someone wrong. I have a hard time getting motivated to do something that I want personally.
Doing this has helped me live and achieve more than others. But is this a good way to live?

You will not fist yourself right now.

Prove me wrong.

I stopped living this way around last year. I'm pretty much saved now from caring about what others think. Fixing my priorities up to live the way I want to live and chase the goals that I want to chase.

OP I understand where you're coming from, srs. A lot of my initial goals were fueled by the anger of proving someone that said I couldn't wrong. It's a powerful motivational tool, but once you've achieved your goal you lose your fuel. It'll get you far, but it's not sustainable motivational fuel. NGL, proving others wrong is what drove me to get my own car, and eventually get my own place. But you should never set goals for the approval of others, especially if they go out of their way to doubt your abilities.

Do it for yourself because you want to and so you can look back and thank your past self for doing whatever goal/milestone you set for yourself.

If it gets you far in life, it can't be that bad but try to find some intrinsic motivation as well.
