The comment about the optimists dying of a broken heart really helped me to clarify some of my feeling about goal setting. It is different to have a positive faith in a good outcome than having unrealistic optimism about timelines. I have had a "broken heart" on too many occasions when goals were not met, so for awhile I couldn't bring myself to set goals. Now, I set goals but I do not attach my heart as much to the timeline of the results. Is this a fair approach or am I being too cautious? What is your experience?

I read Good to Great, for the third or fourth time, several years ago and this principle has stayed with me. I, like the media who Riggio, am often pegged as a pessimist. I prefer the term realist. I try to take steps to overcome the present – no matter how painful (sometimes ;) ).

Great post!

Thanks for reposting it. I found this illuminating as I prepare to preach this coming Sunday on the raising of Jairus' daughter.
