It's easy to get so busy "doing," that we forget what we set out to "accomplish."<BR/><BR/>I think kids tend to be better at following their passions ... and a lot of the "whys" are simply, because it's fun.J.D.

It reminds me something ...Hi J.D.<BR/><BR/>I like this post. It reminds me something I heard (don't know where - maybe Oprah), but you should ask yourself what is it that you really, really, really want (three reallys). <BR/><BR/>We do set goals, but like you pointed out, what is behind those goals? It's not as it appears on the surface, is it? Asking yourself a few pertinent questions can get to the real issue pretty fast. <BR/><BR/>It's just like if someone says they want to lose 100 pounds. Asking why would result in answers that have nothing to do with the actual weight loss, but goes much deeper. <BR/><BR/>Maybe kids have the right idea whey they keep asking "why?" Might we be able to learn more about ourselves is we didn't stop with our first answer?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
