If your ambition is to surf on the highest wave off the coast of Hawaii - the decision takes seconds - the implementation ages (as is so often the case).
Here comes the beef. You got to take lessons. You have to get a board. A big one first, for beginners, a smaller one later, as you get better. You gotta get a wet suit (well, at least if you live in England). You got to practice and practice and practice some more.
Then, when you are an accomplished surfer, get your ticket to Hawaii - do your research, find that important beach where the giant waves occur.
Go to the beach. And if you are unlucky the big ones won't appear, but if you are lucky they will and you will fulfil your ambition.
However, of course, if you haven't done any of the other things (get a board, practice, wet suit etc) there is no point turning up at the beach.
And that my friend is my philosophy on working life.
