Write yourself a check

This weekend I started reading No More Mondays by Dan Miller and came across this story about Jim Carrey. Here's the brief version.

[Jim Carrey] wrote himself a check for $20 million and kept it in his wallet until he earned that amount for The Cable Guy (1996). - IMDB.

I like this story. It's motivating. It's inspiring. It helps you visualize your goals. I'm writing myself a check tonight and it's going to be BIG! I'm not going to tell you the amount, but I would encourage you like Miller does his readers, to write yourself a check. Aim high and put together a plan.
"Aim for an eagle, bag a pheasant, and you won't eat crow."
