I find what you write interesting. Remember: most people base their future only on what they know today.
I think it's not "Most people" we are "All people" because we all act on the basis of the experience we have.
I also believe that goals should be seen in the future, but also know the influence that society and other people have... remember: I may want to be a millionaire, however, if I don't have opportunities I can't be anything.
