The following sentence is in the paragraph about appropriate goals:
The first clause:
If you aim for goals of throwing something with perfect precision or with millimeter precision those are too ambitious. Why? It’s hard to tell, but I think it has to do with the way we throw any object. People don’t usually do goals or projects similar to those so how do you think you’re going to be successful at those? Have you measured how precise your throws are? If you don’t already know how precise your throws are, that’s going to make the project more complicated.
Idk what ambitious means but i think that has to do with wanting to be really successful. It’s like putting your standards way up to arrive at a goal.
This is the next clause:
(Edit: accidentally published the reply) :
The quote above isn’t true if you’re goal isn’t too ambitious. If your goal was instead, “throw a ball to a friend at arm’s reach,” then you’re not gonna run into errors. That’s if he’s not that far away. Your actions are gonna have the desired results. They won’t fail at the goal.
You’re always going to have errors in overly ambitious goals cuz there’s always going to be something to correct. Idk if the errors are errors or small errors.
The reason why you’re going to always have errors in overly ambitious goals:
I see that the ambition is about throwing the ball at a precise location.
The overly ambitious goal seems impossible cuz how are you going to throw the ball at a precise location? It’ll be very hard to think of error correcting stuff to get you to your goal. Like, there’s going to be so many errors to look at. Which one do you even focus on? Everything you do is going to seem like it’s wrong.
