Significance of Goals

Give me a stock clerk with a goal and I'll give you a man who will make history. Give me a man with no goals and I'll give you a stock clerk.

J.C. (James Cash) Penney

Set Goals for Yourself

If you don’t set goals for yourself, you are doomed to work to achieve the goals of someone else.

Brian Tracy

Highest Aspirations

Far away in the sunshine are my highest 

aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can 

look up and see their beauty, believe in them, 

and try to follow where they lead.

Louisa May Alcott

Achieving Goals

What you get by achieving your goals is not as 

important as what you become by achieving 

your goals.

Johann Wolfgang van Goethe

Impossible Goals

When a goal matters enough to a person, that person will find a

way to accomplish what at first seemed impossible.

Nido Qubein

Goals Tap the Deeper Resources

Goals give you more than a reason to get up in the morning; they are an incentive to keep you going all day. Goals tend to tap the deeper resources and draw the best out of life.

Harvey Mackay

How to Achieve your Goals

Know what you want to do, hold the thought firmly, and do every day what should be done, and every sunset will see you that much nearer the goal. 

Elbert Hubbard

Goals lead to Success

People with goals succeed because they know where they are going. It's as simple as that.

Earl Nightingale

Goal is Compelling Desire

A goal is not the same as a desire, and this is an important distinction to make. You can have a desire you don't intend to act on. But you can't have a goal you don't intend to act on.

Tom Morris

Goal is a compelling Desire for which you have decided to act upon.

Goals - Forward Moving Objects

Goals are new, forward moving objectives. 

They magnetize you towards them.

               Mark Victor Hansen

Great Aim

All who have accomplished great things have had a great aim, have fixed their gaze on a goal which was high, one which sometimes seemed impossible.

Orison Swett Marden

Goal in mind, enjoy the journey

Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain. An occasional glance towards the summit keeps the goal in mind, but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vantage point.

Harold B. Melchart

Choose a Goal and stick to it

This one step, choosing a goal and sticking to it, changes everything.
