I've just spent a little bit of time making lists under 3 headings - Places To Go, Things To Buy, and Things To Do. These aren't incredibly aspirational or worthy things like climbing Everest, or buying that dream home in the New Forest but simple more readily achievable things like travelling from Glasgow to Mallaig on the train (reputedly Britain's most beautiful train journey) or undertaking some marine mammal rescue training.
Now then. Having spent many hours listening to speakers talking about aiming for the stars and 'if the dream's big enough the facts don't count', is it so very wrong to have these lowly aspirations? Surely to have SOME dreams is better than not having any at all? Am I doing myself down by not having those astronomically high ambitions or are Susan Jeffers' book and 'The Magic of Thinking Big' (and loads of other books) no better than door stops?
Discuss.
