Hi Paul,

Interesting point, I think I remember John Grinder saying that the conscious mind was not very good at setting outcomes.

To me an outcomes is not so much about setting a goal but about setting a direction. A direction which is motivating and creates the right frame for achieving goals and milestones much more easily.

I also remember a piece on women and pleasure. (According to the authors) women who experience greatest pleasure the most have learnt to relax and enjoy the surprise and excitement of whatever happens - which could be described as the opposite of setting outcomes.

Sometimes outcomes are useful, sometimes just enjoy the journey.....

Any thoughts?
