37: Goals are just dreams with a date

I’m a big fan of goal setting. But I have over analysed, over complicated and over thought both the process and the destination to the point where I have missed the point almost entirely. When I was first directed to the original seminal work on goal setting, ‘Think and Grow Rich’ by Napoleon Hill my focus was more on the ‘Rich’ part than the ‘Think’ part. And then my mind turned to self-limiting doubt which the book features. So that was the obstacle I first need to surmount and the act of adding dates (or deadlines of which I was very used to) proved to be the force required to change my mindset.
