Goal Quotes
Some people get certainty by working harder and saying I'm going to master something. Some people get certainty by lowering their expectations, going 'it will never work. And they lose their dreams, but they get their needs. The needs are not like goals. They're not like belief systems that are built into you.
Anthony Robbins
I had grown a thin mustache, I was a full-grown man, and yet I was completely helpless and without a goal in life.
Hermann Hesse
In today's society, the forces against you are heavy against you. The whole goal is to get knowledge of yourself, but people are so far from themselves that they don't believe themselves.
Robert Fitzgerald Diggs
Achozen
I think that if people look deeply enough into their trading patterns, they find that, on balance, including all their goals, they are really getting what they want, even though they may not understand it or want to admit it.
Ed Seykota
All great human deeds both consume and transform their doers. Consider an athlete, a scientist, an artist, or an entrepreneur. In service of their goals, they lay down time, energy and many other choices and pleasures; in return, they become most truly themselves. A false destiny may be spotted by the fact that it consumes without transforming, without giving back the enlarged self.
Lois McMaster
The goal isn't more money. The goal is living life on your terms.
Chris Brogan
People who succeed are those who know how to mobilize all their physical and mental resources on a goal.
Anthony Robbins
We know that if we play well we can beat them. Our goal is to play better than we did. We might not shoot better, but we can play defense and rebound better.
Bob Thomason
A lot of my books deal with very controversial issues that most people often don't want to talk about, issues that, in my country, are more likely to get put under the carpet than get discussed. And when you talk about moral conundrums, about shades of gray, what you're doing is asking the people who want the world to be black and white to realize instead that maybe it's all right if it isn't. I know you'll learn something picking up my books, but my goal as a writer is not to teach you but to make you ask more questions.
Steven Tyler
Aerosmith
My goal was to show that even if people work in a garage or a supermarket, they have very funny things to say. We never hear their voices.
Michel Gondry
When you can wake up in the morning and feel successful whether some end goal is realized or not...THAT is true success.
Simon Sinek
The fact that lately some circles, not less powerful by their small size, have been actively promoting certain theories, as dangerous as they are illusory, of a "limited", "winnable" or "protracted" nuclear war, as well as their obsession of "nuclear superiority", make it advisable to bear always in mind that the immediate goal of all States, as was expressly declared in the Final Document of the Special Assembly of 1978, "is that of the elimination of the danger of a nuclear war"
Alfonso Garcia Robles
Define your goals in terms of the activities necessary to achieve them, and concentrate on those activities.
Brian Tracy
Life is a problem. Not merely a premiss from which we start, but a goal towards which we proceed. It is an opportunity for us not merely to get, but to attain; not simply to have, but to be. Its standard of failure or success is not outward fortune, but inward possession.
Edwin Hubbell Chapin
Be clear about what you want to accomplish, and whether the circumstances surrounding you are actively helping you toward the goal.
Wally Amos
The fruit of the Spirit wasn't intended to be a list of goals for us to produce - it is the Holy Spirit through us who produces fruit.
Dan Kimball
Your own positive future begins in this moment. All you have is right now. Every goal is possible from here.
Lao Tzu
But maybe prayer is a road to rise, A mountain path leading toward the skies To assist the spirit who truly tries. But it isn't a shibboleth, creed, nor code, It isn't a pack-horse to carry your load, It isn't a wagon, it's only a road. And perhaps the reward of the spirit who tries Is not the goal, but the exercise!
Edmund Vance Cooke
