Aiming Where We Want to Go


Look where you want to go. Don’t focus on what you want to avoid

My friend, Fletcher Millmore, is a British car mechanic and a philosopher.   He was explaining an observation of his to me the other day.    Fletcher does a lot of driving and one day while traveling down an empty highway, he started looking at skid marks on long stretches of road.   Nothing for miles except telephone poles hundreds of yards apart and all the skid marks pointed to the telephone poles.    

“Odd”, he thought.   What is this about?   Then Fletcher told me that he remembered the lesson he once learned from a racecar driving coach.
