Hey Frank sorry for this post but I dont give a F@ck what any C says or anbody. You HAVE to have goals and dreams.
Your post had a lot of great info until I read that horse Sh@t. My opinion.
Dreams and goals about the future is what life is all about. I will cry myself to sleep dreaming of a future with my wife and kids until it ends by her pen before I will EVER follow what your C said regard not looking toward the future.
I heard the wisdom but it got lost in the emotion and feelings of what life is all about. Dreams and goals of the future you want; with the people you want in it.
Now maybe I did not understand but I am sure you could clarify. You were ther I was not.
It would suprise me if you were not like me in this reagrd but again maybe I missed something big that part of the post.
