I came across a recent quote from a Mr. Ted Levitt which puts this very well that “The future belongs to people who see possibilities before they become obvious”. 2. The second thing is that you should have some idea of how to get to where you want to go.

Do not allow the details to bog the vision down  3. The last thing one must do is to know when you have arrived at your destination.
