Successful investors: Why are you so tryhard?

There seem to be a number of highly successful and adept people in the real estate business who are capable of generating 500+K or even millions of dollars a year in profits, as well as people who can generate six figures with virtually no time spent after mastering their craft.

And yet I sense that you guys are just working harder and harder every day to get even more profit throughput rates, make more contacts, teach more people (often for a hefty upfront price!), etc. Why you guys stressin'?

I know if I succeeded I personally would be fine just throughputting somewhere in the six figure range. If I was bored maybe I'd try increasing it a bit, if I had nothing better to do at the moment.
