Another layer: people think the problem is "taking the easy path." That's not the problem! The problem is not *fully defining any desires* that don't already have a well-trodden path to their satisfying condition, never allowing them enough weight to fall out of the cloudshttps://twitter.com/webdevMason/status/1006181402944028673 …

I think you basically can't go wrong trying to understand your desires, as long as you also understand that they're not all necessarily stable & it's possible to be wrong about them. This is true of your destination & path, too, but there are additional risks there...

I think destination-focus is often preferable to path-focus because it (a) gets you closer to thinking about desires & (b) gives you a reference point, coordinates that you can notice yourself moving closer to or further from. Still, the failure mode you're noting is very real

I like throwing ‘Intention’ in this mix, as it is an operational approach to ‘desire’ - leave both in there too so you can compare desires with intentions and make sure they even sync up!
