Refining goals for 2005 is proving tricky, partially because I feel I should tackle my serious issues, and not take the easy way out by going for the quick wins. Looking back at 2004, I feel that I was able to pull through only by 'deferring' some big challenges; perhaps the time has come to tackle them.
The tough ones for me are deep emotional ones, frankly I'm quaking at the thought of having to deal with them, but now seems as good a time as any. The title of this thread skims the surface of one type of challenge - I'm very much a big picture person, while NG is almost anal about detail. Yes, we complement each other, but there are times when I need to be capable of seeing things through his eyes, and that means knowing how to delve into the details, examine an argument in 48 different angles.
Sooo, I need to learn how to take delight in details Stop and smell the flowers, not just catch the whiff carried by the breeze, so to speak.
As for the rest of my goals, well, I plan to take my time, delighting in the details
