Yes, I once read "be flexible in approach, but sure of the destination", but what I seem to do is to be flexible in approach, and flexible in the destination. In essence, there are many ways to the moon, but "...if you miss, at least you'll land among the stars," thus I end up dividing what I really want into smaller positive eventualities and I try to be happy with whatever I get. I suppose the real issue is a mix of lowered expectations, drive and enthusiasm. Being hungry for that one thing and going after it. In a sea of possibilities, it's tough for me to choose that one thing, though I wouldn't expect otherwise from someone like me, a generalist and an INTP.
