It's also a way to check out if this is really your dream. Sometimes, after envisioning what we think is our dream, we find that it's not really what we want. Better to find out now than to spend our lives achieving something that will not provide fulfillment in the process. And it is that process that is the real value. Which leads me to my next question.
Any worthy goal involves change.
If you don't think you'll have to grow and change, then you don't have a very inspiring goal. A worthy goal involves risk. It involves getting out of our comfort zone. And that's where real growth occurs. These are questions we need to constantly be asking ourselves.
