I& #39;m not sure you realize how brilliant that first sentence is: "My personal plan is fairly vague and still very clear. "
Your personal plans or goals should be both clear and vague, which are often opposites but needn& #39;t be.

Clear = understandable, unclauded, defined
Vague = Not fully formed, indistinct, not fully specifies.
For instance, I always wanted to understand why people used their minds so ineffectively and how to improve their mental skills.

A very amorphous, unspecified, vague cluster: Mind skills, mental effectiveness, mental navigation.
On the other hand, very clear: Not interested in pathology; interested in learning, thinking, feelings, creativity, and behavior.

Why vague but clear?
Goals are manifest in a variety of forms. It& #39;s the process/strategy that& #39;s important.
I became a psychologist, magician, focus group researcher, marketing consultant, author of word-of-mouth books, etc.
But the goal was always unchanged: Mind Skills.https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten">

So, the most important take-away:
Set your goals vaguely, such as
"Find a way to …"
"Master, or become expert in …"
"Create value and earn my living in some endeavor that involves X"
