And here’s a secret: You can use set points not only to prevent or reverse slipping but also to improve over time.

Steve Jobs said it wisely: You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.

End goals help you step off the treadmill of the ordinary and get on a trajectory toward the extraordinary.
