Meditations on Preparation: Goals

All true preparation begins with the end in mind. Define your desired objective or outcome. Place your future self there, then look backwards and consider all the hard work, the training, the coaching, and the sacrifice necessary to achieve that victory.

Before preparation even begins, commit to your GOAL.
