I became acquainted with a “Big Hairy Audacious Goal” (BHAG) in reading the book Built To Last, and adapted it to my personal life. I am now working on refining it. I don’t want to wake up in the morning and do an inventory of my physical problems (a current danger, and if I start there, I will stay there all day) but goals that rise out of why God has placed me in this culture. I want them to be big, hairy, and audacious, because God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly, more than I can ask or think, according to His power at work in me! (Eph 3:20) Besides, Goethe said, "Dream no small dreams for they have no power to move the hearts of men.” – especially my heart!
