I have a big goal. How not to veer off the path in a world obsessed with quick results

We live in constant haste, trying to be productive and efficient, yet we still lack time. In this race, we forget our dreams. But achieving your personal goals requires a long-term strategy.

The book by Duke University professor Dorie Clark is about how to break free from the endless cycle of urgency and start building a life and career that bring real results. The author offers an approach of «long-term thinking»: small, sequential steps that may seem insignificant today but yield enormous effects over time.

Based on personal experience and stories from successful professionals, Clark shows how to refocus on strategic vision, learn patience, act mindfully, and stop living from deadline to deadline.

«This book is not about always thinking only of the future. Sometimes it's helpful to step back and assess your actions. But in a broader sense, we need to stop chasing instant results for more ambitious goals.»
