One year is WAY too soon. That would require commitment and discipline and productivity. Three years seems so long away. Two years satisfies the need for immediacy, yet postpones the real heavy lifting. Sort of an underachieving goal procrastination. Giving the appearance of ambitious goals, all the while knowing deep down inside I am capable of so much more. But that is a discussion for another blog posting, isn't it?
I seem to be averse to goals. If I don't have something to shoot for I can't miss, right?
The big question is am I afraid of failure, or am I afraid of success?
I'm not sure exactly how to answer that, and it is driving me crazy.

Hmmmm, so if you don't acheive your goals by two years, does that mean failure?

Oye. I'm right there with ya.
Well BT, that's just the thing. Somehow in the crazy way my mind works the two years is a very fluid number. All that means is that the "two years" keeps getting pushed back every time my comfort zone is threatened.
Therein lies the problem.
