Obsessed with the End.

Result Oriented.Goal Oriented.And if you happen to be in a B-School,Placement Oriented.Focus on the end.Nothing else matters if you come out with flying colors.The process,the means - be damned.

Before starting,you need to know where you are headed.Doesnt matter if most of the time you end up elsewhere,but you should always have an idea of where you want to be. Ask people to do something and the question pops up,"What will happen if I do it?" None's bothered about how it'll be done.Tht's a secondary concern.

I dunno,mebbe nothing's wrong with this approach,but should it neccesarily be this way,all the time? Why cant people simply let go and enjoy what comes,without bothering about the outcome? Is it so difficult to detach yourself from the result? Do you really need to be so sure about everything? Does it really help? And what if you knew that something wouldnt give ya a favorable result,but the process is something you'd enjoy - would you still go ahead with it?

Can you just shrug your shoulders,throw caution to the wind and say,"I dunno what I'm doing,I dunno where it'll take me,but like hell,I enjoy it!" Why does uncertainty make us so protective? Dont we trust ourselves to deal with the unseen?

It may all sound kiddish,but then what kinda life is that which is conditioned by outcomes and certainties.You havnt lived,you have just played safe.
