1. Do not set a goal that involves conquering the world, saving the world, or attaining personal glory. These goals have internal contradictions that will lead you away from doing good work.

2. Find a theme and follow the theme to set the goal. This can come from your personal philosophy and inclinations, from something you observe in nature, or by remixing an existing idea.

3. To help find the theme, keep a diary and try to build up a personal library of references. (Do not try to hoard data. Do tight curation.)
