PUBLIC MARKS from kcaptk711 with tags goals & "Science of Getting Rich"

Here’s the deal. Whenever you use someone or something outside of yourself to make you happy, you have the recipe for disaster. The bottom line is: If you want happiness then be happy from the inside out. Don't expect to create happiness from the outside in.

Do goals work? Yes they do, even if they are not yours. Let me give you an example. When I was at a maritime school, the mission of the school, besides giving me a good education, was for me to become a Captain. In four years at the academy I can’t tell you how many times they prefaced everything as if I was already a Captain. In my mind and the school’s I was already a maritime Captain.
