The goal of The Little Black Fish is to fulfill his ultimate quest: "How will my life or death impact the lives of others?"Once he has identified the problem he sets a goal to look for solutions. From this point on the path is carefully laid-out as he moves on: making connections, assuming leadership, planning, fulfilling the plan and continuing the quest until the goal has been reached.
