To accomplish great things, we must dream as well as act.

Anatole France (1844 - 1924)

This quote sort of align itself to a query that I had in my mind quite recently. It is like "whatever you focus, expands." Boom, suddenly there is a lot of information relevant to your search around you, that you saw it like the first time.

The recent theme was goal searching. In my friend's blogpost, he is a life coach by the way, he talks about how people can achieve their long-term lifelong goals by answering different questions at different point in time.

AS usual, great learning comes after a state of confusion. Though he explained to me very clearly, I was skeptical over how he categorise things.

He says that there are different questions asked at different stages of life. It is to one's utmost benefits to ask questions the questions that we would face at the later stage asap so that the questions he faced in the early stages of his life would be solved by answering the ultimate big question which is ecological to everything. This in NLP terms is called chunking up and the concept of things cannot be solved on the same level.

Yeah, that I agreed with him. It is better to have that awareness on those questions. My doubt comes, at a stage of the young adult, does he know how to answer that question?

Right now, the young adult is probably grappling with the fundamental notion of getting recognition and fame which seems more tangible and larger-than-life. All these while,it has been people taking care of him or her. There is no value attached as to how he can contribute using his power. He can only help people when he knows his strength of contribution.

My question is how can he quicken his step so that he can contribute to people later?

My answer to my own question lies in the quote. Dream 1st and quickly act on it. Unravel what you can and cannot do. Then you sum it up and see how your strengths can help you to be more beneficial to others and harness your weaknesses towards it.
Know Thyself is still the key.
Fame and recognition are the by-products and rough indicator of one's testing of strengths but it must not be the ultimate goal. You must acknowledge that you have achieve your intentions - Find your strengths.
