What are people interpreting this to mean that they upvoted it to +13? Source aside, I don't see anything particularly rational about it.
I interpreted it as meaning that the goals you have are more likely to be accomplished if you have clear paths to those goals and a clear understanding of what those goals are.
I'll answer in rot13 so others can make their own interpretations first. (If you don't think people would be influenced, note the quote is now mostly getting down-voted (currently +11) since the last interpretation!

I'm surprised. Does no-one think the quote is good advice for saving the world? That's the first thing that jumped out at me about it.
