Class 11/6/2006...
Today's class discussion regarded setting goals. An interesting term that Professor Johnson used was "Everest Goals." I did not think of much of it at the time in the lecture, but when I looked down at my Post-it noted goals, I found that I had quite a few lofty ones. They are more like Space Mountain goals; it is going to be a long wait until I can even try, and even then, it is not going to be easy.
The other goals, however, seemed to be on a specific path. Graduating from Case led to Law School, and Law School led to either working as an attorney or writing on legal matters. Other ones, such as having a family and travelling across the world, are also on that path, although the time frame can vary. I know most of what I want to do with my life and where I want to go. What I really need is a timeline. If I can help it, I do not want to miss anything.

I like Michael's metaphor of Space Mountain goals. I think I also have several goals like that. However, I believe that nothing would be impossible if we try hard with strong passion.
