Goal Quotes

• GOAL QUOTE OF THE PAGE
  When people say to me: "How do you do so many things?" I often answer them, without meaning to be cruel: "How do you do so little?" It seems to me that people have vast potential. Most people can do extraordinary things if they have the confidence or take the risks. Yet most people don't. They sit in front of the telly and treat life as if it goes on forever.
  Philip Adams


• When I was a Boy Scout, we played a game when new Scouts joined the troop. We lined up chairs in a pattern, creating an obstacle course through which the new Scouts, blindfolded, were supposed to maneuver. The Scoutmaster gave them a few moments to study the pattern before our adventure began. But as soon as the victims were blindfolded, the rest of us quietly removed the chairs. I think life is like this game. Perhaps we spend our lives avoiding obstacles we have created for ourselves and in reality exist only in our minds. We're afraid to apply for that job, take violin lessons, learn a foreign language, call an old friend, write our Congressman - whatever it is that we would really like to do but don't because of personal obstacles. Don't avoid any chairs until you run smack into one. And if you do, at least you'll have a place to sit down.
  Pierce Vincent Eckhart

Thank you very much for passing by my goal quotes. I love the above goal quotes because they highlight my goal philosophy in a nutshell. Firstly it’s important to have them, write them down somewhere, they should also be flexible goals which you can change when circumstances change. I am constantly changing goals depending on what’s happening in my life. Knowing where you want to go is vital.





I personally use a goal setting software to keep me organized and focused its called GoalsOnTrack. I have written a review of the GoalsOnTrack software for those who are looking for something to help them reach their goals. You can find the review Here or on the left hand navigation tabs. I wish you all well in your goal adventures. Till next time.
