This is an amazing post. There is so much motivation and life in this interview! I have tried a couple of times to sit down and write my bucket list, but like you mentioned Michael there were always things that came in the way – either time, money or just other distractions! Its like the saying “Live today, not tomorrow” and I agree that a lot of people tend not to follow this little simple phrase, we keep thinking that tomorrow will be better or something will change, but if you don’t do anything for that change to happen then how will it. Another saying I love is : If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got. So you have to keep trying to make that change and live life.

Great interview and a fabulous message. I am lucky enough to earn my money working online so being able to seek adventure has been great. My wife, son and I were living in Switzerland and then decided to spend some time in Australia for the adventure.. we swapped skiing in Chamonix, St Cerge etc to water skiing down the Coomara river (actually I haven’t done that yet…apparently there is the occassional shark… but its all about the adventure ..right! 😉

Very cool motivational interview, definitely a bit different trend than most of the interviews you feature on here Michael but still very cool.

I’ve already done something very similar to this in writing down things I’d like to have in life. Writing down dream objects I’d like to own or achievements I’d like to reach. And I will certainly be expanding that to include things I’d like to do as talked about in this interview. Here’s a few off the top of my head:

1. Go on a month long excursion through the Pacific Islands on a fancy yacht.

2. Visit Europe, India and Australia

3. Become fluent in Hindi and Spanish

4. Master one of the many martial arts

5. Achieve a social status where my ideas and experiences can influence thousands of people (You already have achieved this one yourself Michael, congrats)

Very inspirational, looking forward to future interviews.

Nothing short of amazing what really striked me most was when Andy said “its amazing what possible when you decide” I think I should make a t-shirt with that quote
Thank you Michael

Michael, this is probably one of the best interviews I’ve listened to on your site, even though it’s not directly related to making money online. Andy is such an inspirational person that his advices are so true and motivating.

Instead of treating tomorrow is your last day, making your life an adventure is definitely a better way to look at life even though the idea is similar. To keep myself more positive, I sometimes think it’s useful to look at tomorrow as if it’s your first birthday and it’s up to you to decide how you gonna live for the rest of your life.

Making a dream list has been the talks for ages but not many people have really done it (I know I haven’t written my complete dream list down yet). To put this into the context of Income Diary, I think it’s very important to know what our dreams are and what we are trying to achieve by making money online.

Some of us are just trying to replace our day jobs with the freedom of being to make a living online, some of us want to live a luxurious lifestyle, some of us are just here to get some additional income because we still love our current jobs. Whatever it is, we should begin with the end in mind and have a purpose and vision we strive for. Otherwise, as you know, money is never enough unless you set a target beforehand, I certainly do not want to be the slaves of money.

Brilliant! As you always say, Michael. Thanks to both of you!
