What you want and what you will do

Idea number 2 from Brian is in brief, be clear about what you want and what you are willing to do to get there.

My criticism is that, without a framework of what you are and what is good for you to guide you, what you want will in all probability not be what is really good for you.

Second, if you do not have a good framework for thinking about what it is you want then it follows that you will probably not bother too much about the means you take to get there.

Much blood and sorrow have flow in this world because of such - on the face of it - determined and courageous people.
