Omen #1: Obligation
- says who?

Omen #2: Objectivity
- according to whom?

Omen #3: Optics
- who will think this? Does this person matter to me?
- how do I know with certainty what they will think?
- is there another possible way my choice could be interpreted?

Omen #4: Outcomes
- how can I know with certainty this outcome will happen?
- what’s another way this could turn out?

“I only need to see as far as the headlights in front of me, and I can make the whole trip that way”

What if no “lily pad” appears?
1. Sceeen shot my mind
2. Articulate the desire
3. Do some research
4. Have a conversation
5. Take an action, any action

Reflect on life decisions & consider if one of the four omens was present:

1. Obligation: “what should I do here?”
2. Objectivity: “what’s the right/smartest/strategic move?”
3. Optics: “how will it look? What will people think?”
4. Outcomes: “how will this advance me?”

Underfulfilled Overachiever: striver who believes achievement leads to fulfillment

Destinational Living: actions lead towards concrete end goal, ignoring feelings & desires along the way
