Are my objectives ambitious yet attainable? Am I equipped with the necessary resources and support to make them a reality?

We have developed a culture in which effort is considered a success, not only in parenting but in the corporate world. I do believe that this was born out of a genuine desire to be more positive, supportive, and encouraging than previous generations were thought to be. But have we taken it too far?

We tend to set goals based on who we think should be, what we should be achieving rather than taking an internal look to ask, “Does this outcome excite me?”
