goal

Consciousness set goal independently, achieves them through will and evaluation of results

Success, like happiness, is a by-product, not a goal.

The pretty ones are usually unhappy. They expect everyone to be enamored of their beauty. How can a person be content when their happiness lies in someone else's hands, ready to be crushed at any moment? Ordinary-looking people are far superior, because they are forced to actually work hard to achieve their goals, instead of expecting people to fall all over themselves to help them.

Your mission isn't your guide. You have to find your own way.

Set the goal, adjust the goal when needed, and stay locked in on the goal.

If you must chase make certain its with passion so you may reap a worthy reward.

I have indeed lived and worked to my taste either in art or science. What more could a man desire? Knowledge has always been my goal. There is much that I shall leave behind undone_but something at least I was privileged to leave for the world to use, if it so intends_As the Latin poet said I will leave the table of the living like a guest who has eaten his fill. Yes, if I had another life to spend, I certainly would not waste it. But that cannot be, so why complain?

The truly terrible thing about this life, was not knowing what you want, but only able to recognize what you do not want. You have to spend so much time and energy trying to find it out, time that other people spent in pursuing of their desires.

Emotional pain, physical damage, financial weakness are the reasons to stop for a while and not forever.

Respect people who never afraid of failure and working hard to achieve goal. But I respect more those who support them in this situation.

The only real sadness, the only real failure, the only great tragedy in life, is not to become a saint.

The easiest mistake to make is to lose sight of your goal. Failure is temporary, but quitting is permanent. Choose wisely.

Stairs to success are made of people.

So long as the man with ambition is a failure, the world will tell him to let go of his ideal; but when his ambition is realized, the world will praise him for the persistence and the determination that he manifested during his dark hours, and everybody will point to his life as an example for coming generations. This is invariably the rule. Therefore pay no attention to what the world says when you are down. Be determined to get up, to reach the highest goal you have in view, and you will.

No worthy goal should come easily, he told himself. Suffering created value.

The best way to reach your destination is to just keep going until you get there.

A wise man's goal shouldn't be to say something profound, but to say something useful.

A man with a victim mentality attracts autocrats into his life who will decide how he should live
