Oh I’m still a project manager weenie also! I still appreciate that mindset….But I think there’s some nuance when it comes to personal life and considering what the ultimate milestone/goal actually is.

Is my objective to publish a book or to become a competent writer? For a fly fisherman, is the goal to catch a fish, or to become a person capable of catching fish?

A person capable of catching fish . Especially when trout live in such pretty spots.

I love this so much. This hit me right in the heart: "Success comes from learning how to do the work. The finish line isn’t the point, it’s who we become along the way that changes our life forever."

You have changed my life forever.

Interesting, this is quite a change in perspective , you have always hung with project management weenies who feel good when project or milestone complete. I want to learn how to think more this way.
