The real fear is around the bigger goals. As JTHipster points out, the path is very foggy. I'm currently reading a book which argues along the lines of James Campbell's assertion to "find your bliss." The book talks about the feelings you have when you find out what "you are meant to do" - an option perhaps available only to the people in western cultures who are privileged enough to have choices. The book says that when you discover what you are meant to do you feel a sense of meaning and coherence. I guess my real question is this: Are the small goals (laundry, for example) connected to a larger vision of a flourishing life?
