Finally a template!

Question is how would you know when you have won, When you have proven yourself to yourself, (you're always going to be the most difficult taskmaster to yourself so that is an impossible goal.) When you have proven yourself to others. What evidence do you even have you need to prove yourself to others? When are you going to know you're not as "dumb as you look"? (Who wrote the ratings that score you dumb according to your looks anyway )

Maybe I was a tad bit of a smart arse with that one,but yeah, I see your point; an open ended purpose is next to useless, it must be definable and achieveable within reason.

I think this step may finally be becoming together-somthings been a gadfly pays off in these cases- its now clear why they have seminars for this stuff.
