Great sleuthing lil! Don't ask me how, but I was able to find this piece of paper that Professor Kohl used over 20 years ago to write his goals down:

In all seriousness though, I write down goals. I know it is considered cheesy but it works. I also make daily lists of things I want to accomplish. This also works well.

There's the old saying, "even a blind squirrel finds an acorn now and then" and while that is true, the squirrels that see find shit-loads of them :)

BWAHAHHAHAHAHAH. nice find!

I have also found success writing down things that I'd like to accomplish. I've found success NOT writing things down too. But writing them down helps me focus and find/make time for those things.

    Propagate a myth until it becomes fact.
Great find. I needed that giggle just now.

Kohl has a lot of company on that myth. Someone in his office should tell him the stats have been thoroughly debunked.

I totally believe in goals. I also believe I have to break the goals down into a manageable to do list - whoo hoo - that's the hard part.

The internet says that Dr. Kohl also said this: “Better is better before bigger is better.”

So maybe also The merry get merrier before the more get merrier?

maybe not.
