Life
is too precious to waste living it without a plan or goal. It is too short not
living it to the fullest, as they say. Okay, okay. Say, you have a goal, a
dream, a wish you want to fulfill. You’d ask, is that enough? The answer would
be yes, as long as you have the assertiveness to reach it. Hey, it wouldn’t be
called a goal unless you have no plans of achieving it, right? Otherwise,
having a goal without the will to make it into reality is not enough. Another
problem regarding this matter is that people do have a goal but just don’t have
what it takes to achieve it, or so they thought. Again, they become blinded by
the negativity of their minds. Money, socio-economic status, race, age,
gender –these are just a few factors that hinder individuals to think that
they have what it takes to attain success that everyone has been dreaming of.
So what if you don’t earn a lot of money? Will that be reason enough for you
not to attend school or find a job? How about if you are not among the
authorities in your society? Or you’re of a different race? Or you’re still
young? Or you’re a female? Should they even be considered reasons to discourage
you in turning your dreams into reality? I don’t think so. It is only your mind
that says so. Hence, fight it.
The ability to set a goal is the master skill to success. Success is goals, all else is commentary. You cannot hit a target you cannot see, if you don't have one. One of the greatest mistakes and a waste of life is living without a clear purpose or goal. A life without clear goals is a life doomed to failure. Any man who selects a goal in life which can be fully achieved has already defined his own limitation. So the clearer you are about your goal, the more rapidly you'll attract people and circumstances into your life to help make that goal a reality. Most people have their eye on the wrong goal. Is more money, a higher position or more influence your goal? These are not goals but are the by-products of true goals. We should work to become, not acquire. Measure wealth not by things you have, but by the things you have for which you would not take money. Happiness is not a reward - it's a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment - it's result. ...
