It’s been said lots of ways: “keep your eye on the prize,” “Before you start climbing the ladder of success be sure your ladder is leaning against the right wall.” In other words be very clear on your goals and certain that your efforts are moving you toward them. It doesn’t make sense to run faster if you’re running in the wrong direction. It doesn’t make sense to work harder if you’re working on the wrong thing. Speed and diligence are virtues only in pursuit of a clear and worthy goal. – Michael Josephson
