I included this statement about new entrepreneurs and seasoned entrepreneurs - and your point here is a reflection of the distinction I was talking about. You want to build a successful business. Period. Many who are starting out want to build a successful business AND change the world. They need to become more selfish and leave the "change the world" part until they have enough money to do it in their spare time. “But they would both be disagreeing for different reasons - and that difference is the reason why my point is so important.”

IMO, there's no point in making money when you have no time to enjoy it. I agree with "motivated to make money in your business" if you mean by that "being motivated to build a successful business that can run without you". “it’s not until you are solely motivated to make money in your business that you discover being a heartless entrepreneur like me is much harder then it appears”
