I’ve been reading a book which says that we must have specific personal goals in our lives. It goes on to say that the tragedy of life lies in not having goals to reach for.
Without a goal we are like a ship bobbing on the open sea without any direction, going where the currents take us.
Having goals gives us purpose and direction and our lives take on meaning as we reach to achieve our goals We have to know where we want to go or we will never make it anywhere.
All of us are on our life journey which began the moment we were born. We are heading towards one common end, i.e. the grave. Meanwhile, we have to have goals and map out the direction we want to take before the final destination.
All of us have to make a living in order to support ourselves and our families but we mustn’t forget to make a life in the process of making a living. Or life will be meaningless and a sense of emptiness is all that’s left at the end of the day.
