Here is another way to look at it. If you stick to working on goals where you can conceive the "how", well, certainly you may achieve them. In fact with a good, logical plan, you certainly increase your chances.
However, if you work only on goals where you can conceive of "how", then these goals are necessarily smaller and more limited than what you can really achieve.
Essentially you may be falling into a trap whereby you limit yourself only to goals where your conscious mind can already see a path, or a solution. In other words, you aren't really tapping into your unconscious mind or resources at all.
It may not be such a terrible trap if you're by nature quite intelligent, ambitious, driven and good at planning. Of course a person who is intelligent, ambitious, driven and good at planning
will not do as well as
a person who is intelligent. ambitious, driven, good at planning AND knows how to utilise his unconscious mind.
