Very few things impress me, but dedication impresses me. Whenever someone is willing to sacrifice to chase something, I find it to be fascinating. Even if the something isn't particularly noble or even "good."

A singular focus on a goal at the expense of much over a long period of time - especially if that goal is achieved - is aspiring.

For me, that focus is my work, but for someone else, it might be their kids, their God, their country, their cause - whatever.

But find a focus and dedicate yourself to it.

I'm also fascinated by the people who are so unyieldingly focused. I think it interests me because focus that intense points towards "existential meaning". Which itself is a subject worthy of considerable thought.
