When you can, always advise people to do what you see they really want to do. Doing what they want to do, they may succeed; doing what they don't want to do, they won't
Basketball has taught me that no matter how unlikely something is, if you set a goal, and follow after that goal with all your heart, anything is possible.
There are times I am happy. There are times I am sad. But I always try to separate emotion from the need to reach for something stronger, deeper. And then no matter the emotion, I can reach for a stability that helps me accomplish what is the goal.
He who would reach the desired goal must, while a boy, suffer and labor much and bear both heat and cold. [Lat. , Qui studet optatam cursu coningere metam Multa tulit fecitque puer, sudavit et alsit. ]
It was one of the best goals I've seen this millenium.
Everybody when you propose and talk about putting your life together, the ultimate goal is the same. I think sometimes people forget your background and however you were raised. You want to have a different route to get to that goal.
Whatever goal you set for yourself, conquer it.
When we sit thoughtfully pondering in a quiet place and the Spirit speaks to us, there will come into our hearts and souls the things that are truly our greatest desires, those things that are more important in the long run than anything else. Away from the appeal of the world, that greatest desire usually relates to relationships with family and with the Lord. And when that priority is in place, then we begin to plan our lives with purpose. We begin to have goals that cause us to live with anticipation.
Don't set your goals to be a star. Set your goals to be the best that you can be and go from there.
The road is more important than the goal.
Seen politically, systems follow one another, each consuming the previous one. They live on ever-bequeathed and ever-disappointed hope, which never entirely fades. Its spark is all that survives, as it eats its way along the blasting fuse. For this spark, history is merely an occasion, never a goal.
Increasing meaning and joy on the planet is the ultimate goal because within that space all evil is cast out.
Make sure your goals are dynamic, that is to say, point toward an activity that you are engaged in and through which you are connected to other human beings as well as to the whole. See yourself inspiring countless people with your work and enriching their lives. Feel yourself being an opening through which energy flows from the unmanifested Source of all life through you for the benefit of all.
We won't be perfect on this side of heaven. But Jesus is perfect. Always. We are becoming more holy and true. Jesus already is. His name isn't “Becoming. ” It is “I Am. ” Perfection isn't the goal. Jesus is.
The goal of education should be to dismantle the Middle Pole view, not to reinforce it in the name of the need for a grounding in one's own civilisation.
Remember, your goal is to trade well, not to trade often.
Completion is a goal, but we hope it is never the end.
The reason so many individuals fail to achieve their goals in life is that they never really set them in the first place
That's the whole goal, to win the national championship. You can't have a legacy without one.
I could have been better. That's my goal now, to be better.
