Feedback:

Question of the Episode: What obstacles will you face when building your red brick road?

• munchkin - She would add obstacles on purpose. The obstacle against her is that her workers will get deported.
  
• flickguy - Reality: Narnia doesn't exist! Setting that aside, the true obstacle is self: laziness and not knowing how to perform the work involved.
  
• lazy-t - Ego, lack of effort. Also, "As I work, the goal often seems to shift, which makes it harder to attain."
