In Chapter 13 David talks about outcome focusing. David talks about how everything is connected. He says you can’t really define the right action until you know the outcome, and your outcome is disconnected from reality if you’re not clear about what you need to do physically to make it happen.
To me Chapter 13 really is all about beginning anything with the end in mind. I must look at a project and see the final result. Once I see that and am happy with the results, I can backtrack and make my plan of action to get there. This is the same for personal projects and goals as well as professional. There is profound quote at the end of this book from a church in Sussex, England. A vision without a task is but a dream, a task without a vision is drudgery, a vision and a task is the hope of the world.
