Pilot Career?
 
How does one tell if they have the motivation to actually become an airline pilot. I really enjoy flying and am really interested in planes and aviation. I just don't know if I have the real love and motivation for flying. I want to be a pilot it's the only career that has ever interested me. EVER! What are some signs/traits in pilots that I should see that have caused other pilots to make a career of it.

You'll never know if you never try. How old are you? I would say you need to have
good study habits and hand-eye coordination. An Eye for visualizing angles. Ability to focus on things and not get distracted, but at the same time able to multitask and keep your composure. Just go sign up for an intro flight in a Cessna 172. If you like it and take lessons, you will see where you can go from there. Either way, it will be an accomplishment and can turn into a rewarding hobby if you decide not to go Pro.
