Everyone needs a vision

Do you have a vision? Is there something that you strive for? It seems to me that many people today do not have high aspirations. Rather than aim for the best, they talk themselves into accepting less than best -- second place is first loser, so the NASCAR drivers say -- but so many people are willing to be first loser, second loser or even one-hundredth loser. Why?

What is the payoff for being less than your best? Is there some voice whispering in your ear telling you that you won't make the best grade or the best argument for your cause or the best display of your talents? Whose voice do you hear when you set your goals? Are you setting goals?

Do you plan to fail or fail to plan? Do you mistake lack of knowledge for lack of ability? Lack of knowledge just means that you have to study to gain knowledge. Lack of ability means you aren't capable of the study needed to achieve your goals.

Too many people give up before they even begin. Too many people talk themselves out of the satisfaction of a 'job' well done.

Why? Anyone got an answer? I don't. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Do you see it too?
