I understand what you are saying but I do not agree totally. One of the main issues I have is that you say dont think about the goal but the steps to reach it.
Well if you dont think about the goal, the destination how would you even know the steps to take to get there ?
Simplest example I can give you is directions from a GPS... if you dont know what address you are going to no matter how many miles you will travel etc you just will not get there.
It sounds good but for some reason for me it does not make sense. You have to have a goal in mind constantly if you want to achieve it. If you dont and you just "take steps" they are all pointless but might be interesting but will always keep you traveling and never get you to your destination because you really dont have one... thanks. Just my 5 cents.
