Have a passion that will help you achieve your other financial and personal goals.

It's rarely possible that you will get to do something professionally that comes out of your passion or hobby.

Many a times, the passion dies in the hustle and bustle of achieving life goals and life makes you move on.

I have kept and built my passion for collecting and maintaining vintage motorbikes and cars.

I have a retirement planned with it. So there is no question what will I do after retirement.

I have something to retire early and live my dream.

I have collected six motorbikes and scooters, and one classic car. I think that's my hook to life. I have few more in mind too.

My life lesson is to keep maintaining your passion so it keeps you going in your professional life.
