Previously I commented on Taking out the Trash from the movie Peaceful Warrior. Well checking out the author of that movie Dan Millman's blog, he recently discussed Taking out the Trash. You can check out what he had to say at the following link: http://www.danmillman.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=145
Actually, I think I was pretty close in my interpretation and believe the previous blog has many good points. But I did want you to hear what the author had to say about it.
Have a Great Day

Where are you going?
"If You Don't Know Where You Are Going, You'll End Up Some Place Else" -Yogi Berra-
This quote interest me in the fact that so many of us really don't know where we want to end up. Some of us believe we have GOALS, but do we really? Sometimes when I look in the mirror I try to figure out if I am really reaching my full potential. Now I believe I have accomplished a lot in my life and career, but how much more could I accomplish if I set more specific GOALS and relentlessly pursued those goals. Life is full of peaks and valleys, but it is those who are able to set GOALS and stay focused that end up where we intended to go.
In athletics, not having a clear goal can be a major road block in reaching championship status. If a team does not have a specific GOAL their chance of ending up on top greatly decreases. Which may be okay for those teams that just want to get by and are okay with mediocrity. But what separates the champions from the rest is that they know where they are going and are committed to do whatever it takes to get there.
Therefore, you must first figure out where you are going and then do what is needed to get there.
