Success and achievements often come with questions, opposition and a lot of reaction from people around us. Whether we desire immense wealth and happiness or not, it is not uncommon for people to have set standards of achievements they perceive to be signs of living a good life. Our needs are often influenced by our geographical region, educational system, culture, values and personal goals. In the end all our motivation is centered around money and it's equivalent because we need it to pay for our development, survival and to achieve our dreams.
Money being the source of our motivation is very debatable but can't be ignored because we truly need it and it's equivalent to build our shelter, buy clothes ,attend schools, feed, acquire gadgets and other things we value for our survival. The debatable part comes when we realise that adaptation and our survival instincts is what influence our actions. We may desire comfort, luxury, good health and other things but getting this things may be impossible without the drive to adapt to situations around us and lack of zeal to live.
Trying to figure out if money or the desire to live is our motivation is very controversial and makes us dizzy with confusion if we continue to dwell on it. The cruel and delinquent ones among us try to live life trying to make things work out for them by damning the consequence while the law abiding and humane ones among us try to live according to societal laws to acquire more material things to make living standards better.
Some people's existence is centered around trying to make life better for others through their innovation, inventions and ideas which may be driven by desire for wealth or service to humanity. People often feel a strong motivation within to express their true selves and desire which often leads to their breakthrough in whatever field they have chosen but this often comes with a price. No matter how benevolent a person is, resources will still be required to replicate the trend, invention, innovation and and to implement an idea a person has come up with.
Good and evil thrive today because there are both human and material resources for them to use in replicating their ideas, inventions and innovations. The human mind is comes after all while some seek to survive while adapting to the rules of humanity and kindness, others seek to survive and dominate everything even if it means watching the world burn.
What distinguishes our drive is our consideration for others in attaining what we want. The world is in disarray because our survival instincts has been mutated by our selfish desire to be on top of the success chain.
When we are born, our families learn to love us and guide us throughout growth years based on their ideas, values and principles. This love may often not manifest when our family find our existence a threat to their survival, or a threat to achieving their ambitions. Whether or not we receive the attention, love and material support we need from our family and close allies, we would need to attain our unique adaptation and communication skill to interact with others.
Whatever our dreams , goals and aspirations may be, we still need others who see things in similar and different perspective as us to achieve whatever good or evil we desire. We will get closer to achieving world peace and development when we let our drive become fueled by desire survive together since our diversity is what makes us unique and brings about the innovations, inventions and success we seek.
