What you said in step two has me thinking - about making your North Star "childishly clear". I'm very quick to muddy things and make them complicated. E.g. I keep jumping to thinking about the end-point, and forget about the next step for a while. Then I get confused about what I should be doing. I could do with some childish clarity in my life.

Totally hear you James!

Actually, it helps me to read this back too.

I think that if we can combine

1) Childishly clear goals

2) Faith that small, invisible steps stack up

Then we're in a good way.

Building takes time.

Like the song says -

Decades, not days.

Something that has helped me is to consider all this stuff my life's work - the outer expression of the inner - rather than something that I specifically need back from.

That said - when I read lovely words like yours here - it really uplifts me and keeps me going.

Thank you for taking the time to feedback and share, I really appreciate it!

Take care, Jim
