Dear Jay:
Thank you for saying what you did above.
You are completely humble, honest and open with us in your revelations about goal-setting, and this is greatly appreciated. I have also seen some of your postings on other Forums where this same sincerety shows.
Goal-setting is not easy, for any of us - especially when it comes to thinking in the broader sense of "life" goals. And it is highly controversial as we both know - for many reasons.
Despite all that is written on the subject however, I personally feel it is critical to "set" them. And when we fail to achieve them (not "if") - we re-set them -- and we keep re-setting them.
If at first we don't succeed...
I for one believe you "will" succeed Jay, in whatever goals you set for yourself -- because your confidence will grow as you accomplish them -- and because of your truthfulness.
The truth will always set us free.
You and yours have a wonderful Holiday Season!
Kindest regards, Peter A. / Canada
