Make sure that you appreciate all the people that are helping you achieve your goal and your vision. And then just enjoy the process.
— from The Flight Plan (Purpose/Wisdom/Risk)
In the book
A vision statement, at bottom, is just an honest declaration of how you intend to invest your one short life, and the values you hold most deeply are what that vision rests on. Then set the goals that serve it, name the obstacles you are sure to meet, and never forget the people helping you climb. And reach high while you do — it is as much work to pursue something small as something large, so aim for the large. — The Flight Plan (Purpose/Wisdom/Risk)
Do not be paralyzed by whether a thing will work, either — the wise are moved less by whether something will succeed than by whether it is a bet worth taking. And as you go, score yourself honestly, marking what you achieved and asking how you would do it differently, all the while appreciating the people helping you and learning to enjoy the process itself. Here is the weather that stalls the engine, and it is almost always about motivation — the fuel itself. — Goals, Action & Defining Success (Goal/Action/Success/Motivation)
