The fact that you seem to think this is a waste of time, or impossible to achieve in your current environment, is a shame.
Again, please don't take this as preachy, I'm just trying to be helpful because I see such value in this part of GTD.
I'm going to completely agree with mackiest. Once you have identified some or most of your goals and objectives, visions and purpose in life, you will subconsciously move toward those. A very satisfying feeling is waking up one morning realizing that you are actively working on them through your projects and next actions.
