I have been enjoying a few unexpected blogs recently. A noteworthy one is written by the artist/author of one of my favorite comic strips, Dilbert. In his recent post talks about how when he was 11 he applied for the Famous Artist School and even then had a strong vision that he would one day be a famous cartoonist.

Proverbs tells us that “Where there is no vision, the people perish“

I believe that the opposite of this proverbial statement is also true. That “Where there is vision, the people prosper”

Many of us fall into the trap of ‘going through the motions’. I was at dinner with a friend the other night and he told me that for many years he would set goals and whenever he would revisit his written goals he would see that he had accomplished them. Oddly enough he hadn’t written goals in the last two years. We were at dinner to discuss how he could take action on a particular dream of his and make it a reality. Although this post is full of quotes another favorite of mine is ‘a goal not written is only a wish’.
