Thank you for writing this. This is how I decide on new goals, although I've never thought about how to describe the process. It sounds like a sophisticated version of "positive thinking".
Sort of. It's important to consider the downsides of a potential new goal, too, though - if you have to bias your thinking about a goal to convince yourself it's something worthwhile to do, you probably shouldn't be pursuing it in the first place.
