As I ponder the process of vision and goal setting, it’s becoming even more germane to life than even I (an admitted aficionado of such) believed previously. But elements of it also have become more pressing on me–”good Pee-Pee” (as my 2-year old would say) and M&Ms. Let me explain:
When we set goals, we also need to conduct a brutally honest assessment of where we are right now–our starting point. If we have a VERY clear picture of where we are going (one that we can literally “taste”), AND a brutally honest assessment of where we stand right now; then going from one to the other, from A to B, becomes a largely formulaic exercise.

Interesting how so many folks seem more intent on working on their “Myths and Legends” (for that is what they are) rather than on their substance, their character. Think…”Politician...”
If our true Character is a measure of what we are becoming, and is measured by our ability to be “true to what we know to be true," then surely that should be our focus rather than the object described in our (as-we-all-know, inflated) press releases—whether written or implied.
