He who works his land will have abundant food, but the one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty. Prov.28
To set a goal without defining the steps to accomplish it is only to dream. To make our dream come true we must create it one material step at a time. Taking the first step is often the hardest. Staying with it is second, but just as important. Doing so requires and results in proven character. Of course, some goals are not worth pursuing. The late Stephen Covey is noted for saying that many people “climb the ladder of success only to find it leaning against the wrong wall.” Define your goals well or you may find yourself in a place you don’t want to be--or worse, become someone you hate being.
