I like the direction of this. I've been thinking lately about trying to inspire kids to greatness, similar to the way ancient Romans made their ancestors greatest achievements highly visible in their homes [1] to inspire and challenge their children. Your question about failing made me think about that - maybe there is room for a question like "What did you do to [change the world/help others/achieve your goal/etc] today?" The desire to have a good answer at the end of the day might be enough to inspire some big-picture thinking.
