Do what you love to do, by Jamie


When I first went to University, I went out on my first night with a guy called Neil Redfern, an amazing rugby player and captain of the University rugby team, obviously I wanted to play for the first team so I listened to everything he said, one thing that does stick in my wind was: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past decade or so, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

Doing what you love to do is one of the greatest secrets I can give to you, that will lead you to financial success.  If you can find something that you love to do, something that you have such passion for then work doesn’t feel like work, it feels like fun.  Most self made millionaires that I speak to all made their millions from doing something they love to do; if you love what you are doing then the money will follow.



I think we have all sat around the table having a few drinks with friends and family, and that age old question comes up, “what would you do if you won the lottery”  Well when I speak with Millionaires they all have the same answer and not because they already have millions, they say I wouldn’t change a thing.  So I push them further and they all answer the same way, “because I love what I do, why change it”
