Goal Quotes (page 23)

It is when we act freely, for the sake of the action itself rather than for ulterior motives, that we learn to become more than what we were. When we choose a goal and invest ourselves in it to the limits of concentration, whatever we do will be enjoyable. And once we have tasted this joy, we will redouble our efforts to taste it again. This is the way the self grows. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Paulo Coelho quote: "Happiness is the only goal worth pursuing"
Happiness is the only goal worth pursuing Paulo Coelho
James Cameron quote: "if you set your goals ridiculously high and its a failure, you..."
if you set your goals ridiculously high and its a failure, you will fail above everyone elses success James Cameron
But we can perhaps remember, if only for a time, that those who live with us are our brothers, that they share with us the same short moment of life; that they seek, as do we, nothing but the chance to live out their lives in purpose and in happiness, winning what satisfaction and fulfillment they can. Surely, this bond of common faith, this bond of common goal, can begin to teach us something. Surely, we can learn, at least, to look at those around us as fellow men, and surely we can begin... Robert Kennedy
Ramakrishna quote: "The goal of life is not the earning of money, but the service..."
The goal of life is not the earning of money, but the service of God. p.114 Ramakrishna
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of... Dwight D. Eisenhower
No, I`m putting it away, trying to buy a house for my family. The goal is to use the money to move into a big house, so my daughter can have a garden. Ewan McGregor
When we set out on the path, we always have a fairly clear idea of what we hope to find. Women are generally seeking their Soul Mate, and men looking for Power. Neither party is really interested in learning. They simply want to reach the thing they have set as their goal. Paulo Coelho
Hurl yourself at goals above your head and bear the lacerations that come when you slip and make a fool of yourself. Try always, as long as you have breath in your body, to take the hard way–and work, work, work to build yourself into a rich, continually evolving entity. Sylvia Plath
Chris Colfer quote: "because a life without meaning, without drive or focus,..."
...because a life without meaning, without drive or focus, without dreams or goals, isn't a life worth living. Chris Colfer
Once that is clearly understood, I think that each of us can stay quietly in the state in which nature has placed him. since the middle station allotted to us is always far from the extremes, what does it matter if someone else has a slightly better understanding of things? If he has, and if he takes them a little further, is he not still infinitely remote from the goal? Is not our span of life equally infinitesimal in eternity, even if it is extended by ten years? In the perspective of... Blaise Pascal
Carl Jung quote: "anyone who attempts to do both, to adjust to his group and at..."
...anyone who attempts to do both, to adjust to his group and at the same time pursue his individual goal, becomes neurotic. Carl Jung
Evolutionarily speaking, there is seldom any mystery in why we seek the goals we seek? why, for example, people would rather make love with an attractive partner than get a slap on the belly with a wet fish. Steven Pinker
Ironically enough, in the same way that fear brings to pass what one is afraid of, likewise a forced intention makes impossible what one forcibly wishes... Pleasure is, and must remain, a side-effect or by-product, and is destroyed and spoiled to the degree to which it is made a goal in itself. Viktor E. Frankl
Cormac McCarthy quote: "whoever approaches his goal dances"
whoever approaches his goal dances Cormac McCarthy
