There is a direct connection between what occurs in your consciousness and what occurs in your external life. — The Path of Least Resistance, Robert Fritz (1943 -), Entrepreneur, Author
A lot has been said about goal setting. It all begins with a vision. Many will recommend you begin by seeing yourself living your dream. Others will say you need first to define the steps. Both of these are good advice. My version is to see the idea as the ideals you need to embody to become the person who is the original vision. The more Thoroughly you do this, the more Direct will be your route. Then, even it circumstances make you veer from your focused goal, you will be the person you want to be.
Peace,
