I have the same goal I’ve had ever since I was a girl: I want to rule the world.

A goal without a plan is just a wish.

A goal is a dream with a deadline.

The achievement of one goal should be the starting point of another.

The goal of our efforts is to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

We celebrate victories but remain focused on our goals.

Unity within the squad is vital for achieving our goals.

My first words when I was young were: ‘goal, goal, goal.

For me, I’m focused on what I want to do. I know what I need to do to be a champion, so I’m working on it.

Dreams are free. Goals have a cost. While you can daydream for free, goals don’t come without a price. Time, effort, sacrifice, and sweat

We know how rough the road will be, how heavy here the load will be, we know about the barricades that wait along the track, but we have see our soul ahead upon a certain goal ahead and nothing left from hell to sky shall ever turn us back

Once you have established the goals you want and the price you’re willing to pay, you can ignore the minor hurts, the opponent’s pressure and the temporary failures

Obstacles are what you see when you take your eyes off of the goal

Even when it is not fully attained, we become better by striving for a higher goal.

Greatness! Extraordinariness! Conquest of the world and immortality of the name! What good was all the happiness of people eternally unknown compared with this goal?

Studies have proven that early childhood education returns to society as much as $12 for every dollar invested. Our goal is to identify the most important development opportunities for children five years and younger, providing insight to transform early childhood education from a social policy issue into an economic imperative.

My medium is music, but my goal is to motivate people to dream.

When I write a goal down – and I truly write them down – it becomes a part of me. That’s a contract that I sign with myself to say, ‘I don’t care what happens – I’m going to stay on this path. I’m going to try and see this through; I’m going to give it my best shot, my best effort.

I like to score a proper goal, you know – a passing move

I can’t think of a striker in the world who has scored so many important goals, never mind a midfielder

Of course you don’t want to concede a goal in any game.

At first sight, Shane Long is just a short striker, but he’s good in the air; he’s quick, very dangerous, has good feet, and scores goals

Centre-backs usually get criticised for clearing the ball long, but it’s easier doing this than risking a pass. If you lose the ball at the back, it’s almost a goal. Most centre-backs don’t risk this kind of game, depending on the holding midfielder in front.

It’s just a coincidence that I’ve scored two headers. I’m not a specialist scoring headed goals.

Let us go forward in peace, our eyes upon heaven, the only one goal of our labors

I’m at my most comfortable out on the pitch when I’m in front of goal with the ball at my feet. It’s about being used to certain situations, and with time, you will find, chances don’t get snatched at.

It isn’t hard to practise finishing. You can do it on your own: just take a couple of touches and shoot at goal. You can do it with whatever equipment you have.

If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things

If people are not laughing at your goals, your goals are too small

My goal, if I was going to do art, fine art, would have been to become Picasso or greater. That always sounds so funny to people, comparing yourself to someone in the past that has done so much, and in your life you’re not even allowed to think that you can do as much. That’s a mentality that suppresses humanity.

Each goal I score is exciting.

Do something because you really want to do it. If you’re doing it just for the goal and don’t enjoy the path, then I think you’re cheating yourself.

Money and good life had never been my goal.

I love the look of full brows that aren’t perfectly done – eyebrows on fleek: that’s the goal.

I’m thrilled that country music fans like my stuff, but so do a lot of people outside of country music, people who just love music. My goal is more to reach music lovers than to appeal to a genre. I love country music, and I’m proud to represent it, but I don’t obsess over it as a category.

To reach your goal authentically is probably, in the end, going to mean much more to you than having reached it in a false way.

Between the Great Depression and the 1970s, private business was viewed with suspicion even in most capitalist economies. Businesses were, so the story goes, seen as anti-social agents whose profit-seeking needed to be restrained for other, supposedly loftier, goals, such as justice, social harmony, protection of the weak and even national glory.

We generally realized how to respect fallen troopers. They were murdered for the good of us; they went out on our central goal. Be that as it may, how are we to grieve an arbitrary man executed in a fear-based oppressor assault while sitting in a bistro? How would you grieve a housewife who jumped on transport and stayed away forever?

The goal of fasting is inner unity

My spiritual goal is to one day walk into God and disappear.

It may be true that he travels farthest who travels alone, but the goal thus reached is not worth reaching.

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.

God put me on this Earth to accomplish a certain number of things. Right now I’m so far behind that I’ll never die

Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages

When I have fully decided that a result is worth getting I go ahead of it and make trial after trial until it comes

omedians do movies and TV so that when they tour, they sell out. That’s the goal: To get popular enough so the place is packed.

Every blade of grass, every insect, ant, and golden bee, all so amazingly know their path, though they have not intelligence, they bear witness to the mystery of God and continually accomplish it themselves.

The more you succeed in loving, the more you’ll be convinced at the existence of God and the immortality of your soul.

When I was playing football I never enjoyed it that much, I was never happy. If I scored two goals, I wanted a third, I always wanted more. Now it’s all over I can look back with satisfaction, but I never felt that way when I was playing.

My goal was just to live a good life that I was happy with. And I wasn’t exactly sure that that meant being the star of a movie.

We have a mission,we have a goal. And it’s not complete.

Freedom is the only worthy goal in life. It is won by disregarding things that lie beyond our control.

My goal in life is to unite my avocation with my vocation, As my two eyes make one in sight.

I got here, my main goal was just to make the team. And after that it just raised the bar.

Before I debuted, it was my goal to make my debut, and afterwards, I aimed at winning champion titles on television music shows, and I hoped for a chance to perform as a soloist.

Every day is a challenge, you’re always faced with a new one. And when I have achieved something, I look forward to the next goal. That’s the way to go.

In life, you need to have a goal. Without a goal, you won’t achieve anything.

You’re at the bottom of the mountain. May you climb up without suffering.

Happiness is not a goal; it is a by-product.

Many people fail in life, not for lack of ability or brains or even courage but simply because they have never organized their energies around a goal.

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.

My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.

You can become an unstoppable, consistent, goal achieving machine. You just need to practice the proven strategies contained in my talks and books.

If you raise your children to feel that they can accomplish any goal or task they decide upon, you will have succeeded as a parent and you will have given your children the greatest of all blessings.

Your ability to discipline yourself to set clear goals, and then to work toward them every day, will do more to guarantee your success than any other single factor.

Success is goals, everything else is commentary.

Your ability to set goals is the master skill of success. Goals unlock your mental powers, release your energies, and lift your life onto a higher plane.

Dreamers, keep on dreaming and keep working hard to achieve your goals

You learn a lot in life but there are a lot of tools and resources in school that help you grow professionally and personally for whatever goal you may want to achieve

My goal in music is to create nostalgic moments

English fans love spectacular players like Alan Shearer and that is exactly what United have now signed. He has magic in his boots. The first thing you notice about him is that he is incredibly quick and very, very powerful for such a young man. He has great, close control and his technique is excellent. He believes he can do anything with the ball, and that confidence makes him very special indeed.

He is as tough as anything. You can crack him once, but he won’t let it bother him. He’s back on his feet in no time and getting on with it. He is a strong character and a great sight when he’s heading for goal.

It gives me the happiest feeling in the world. I just love scoring. It doesn’t matter if it’s a simple goal from close range, a long shot or a dribble around several players, I just love to score all goals.

For me Sir Alex was my father in football. He was crucial in my career and, outside football, was a great human being with me. Talent isn’t everything. You can have it from the cradle, but it is necessary to learn the trade to be the best.

Iker has never stopped being one of the best goalkeepers in the world. For me, Iker is a top goalkeeper and has never not been.

Whatever your goal is you will never succeed unless you let go of your fears and fly.

If the plan doesn’t work, change the plan but never the goal.

Learn as if you were not reaching your goal and as though you were scared of missing it

Don’t walk through life just playing football. Don’t walk through life just being an athlete. Athletics will fade. Character and integrity and really making an impact on someone’s life, that’s the ultimate vision, that’s the ultimate goal – bottom line.

I fight for the man next to me. It don’t matter about me, what matters about me is sacrificing for you; for the ultimate goal which is us.

When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don’t adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.

My goal is to entertain myself and others.

Peter Schmeichel could make the goal look much smaller when you glanced up to hit a shot.

I’m not religious, and I’m not a believer, but I think we have lost something in not having the old man (God) around

A goal will set your process of achievement in the right direction.

Setting a goal is like adding a catalyst to your success reaction.

Picture yourself in your minds eye as having already achieved this goal. See yourself doing the things you’ll be doing when you’ve reached your goal.

Your problem is to bridge the gap which exists between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach.

The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious, will direct us along the path to its fulfillment.

Happiness is the only goal worth pursuing.

Nuclear abolition is the democratic wish of the world’s people and has been our goal almost since the dawn of the atomic age. Together, we have the power to decide whether the nuclear era ends in a bang or worldwide celebration.

Ever since your goal found out that you were traveling toward it, it has been running to meet you.

Don’t be afraid to be ambitious about your goals. Hard work never stops. Neither should your dreams.

The goal for me is always to have the opportunity to work in different genres. This is a great and exciting time in my career, where I can have the opportunity to work in different genres, and also I recognize there’s not a lot of actors who have that opportunity and I’m grateful for it.

What I can say is that it was clear to many of us that an indigenous African literary renaissance was overdue. A major objective was to challenge stereotypes, myths, and the image of ourselves and our continent, and to recast them through stories- prose, poetry, essays, and books for our children. That was my overall goal.

The first step to achieving your goal is to take a moment to respect your goal. Know what it means to you to achieve it.

You learn by trying, making mistakes, correcting and trying again and again until your reach the desired goal, which is rarely without effort, but is rather a reward for hard work.

We can do anything we want to do if we stick to it long enough.

Kill them with success and bury them with a big smile.

The goal is not to be better than the other man, but your previous self.

God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart.

This will not be easy because it doesn’t come naturally to us. We cannot do this on our own. We have to allow God to elevate our vantage point. Start by reading His Word, the Bible…Pray and ask God to transform your thinking. Let Him do what you cannot. Ask Him to give you an eternal, divine perspective.

I always dribble for a reason, and I always head for the goal.

As long as I have a want, I have a reason for living. Satisfaction is death.

The goal of an artist is to create the definitive work that cannot be surpassed.

You must be single minded. Drive for the one thing on which you have decided.

You need to overcome the tug of people against you as you reach for high goals.

Anyone who attempts to do both—to adjust to his group and at the same time pursue his individual goal—becomes neurotic

Impatience asks for the impossible, wants to reach the goal without the means of getting there. The length of the journey has to be borne with, for every moment is necessary.

My argument against God was that the universe seemed so cruel and unjust. But how had I got this idea of just and unjust? A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a straight line. What was I comparing this universe with when I called it unjust?

Every experience, no matter how bad it seems, holds within it a blessing of some kind. The goal is to find it.

Life is a process, not a goal; a means but not an end; a constant movement rather than an established pattern.

Make at least one definite move daily toward your goal

A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at

Adhere to your purpose and you will soon feel as well as you ever did. On the contrary, if you falter, and give up, you will lose the power of keeping any resolution, and will regret it all your life.

I was just going and going, more and more and more and more. I was way over the limit but still able to find even more

Joy is the goal of existence, and joy is not to be stumbled upon, but to be achieved, and the act of treason is to let its vision drown in the swamp of the moment’s torture.

My happiness is not the means to any end. It is the end. It is its own goal. It is its own purpose.

Concentrate on your goals. Do not allow other thoughts to enter your mind. If you allow them to, other things could take your concentration away from your ultimate aim.

Dreams are for dreamers. Goals are for achievers.

Passivity is fatal to us. Our goal is to make the enemy passive.

What has made me successful is the ability to surrender my plans, dreams and goals to a power that’s greater than other people and greater than myself.

It is my goal to win every time I play. But on the other hand, I also seek a balance of compassion and respect for the other players. I understand that everyone goes through difficult times, either mentally or physically, to cope with their life, to live the sport.

Glory lies in the attempt to reach one’s goal and not in reaching it.

If you paint in your mind a picture of bright and happy expectations, you put yourself into a condition conducive to your goal.

I want to show little girls that the possibilities are endless. That’s my goal – to not only do it for myself, but to show them I can do whatever I put my mind to.

No one will ever accept anything. I think the goal is to not want anyone’s acceptance.

If others would think as hard as I did, then they would get similar results.

First, have a definite, clear practical ideal; a goal, an objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends; wisdom, money, materials, and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end

Your ability to communicate is an important tool in your pursuit of your goals, whether it is with your family, your co-workers or your clients and customers.

I know what I want, I have a goal, an opinion, I have a religion and love.

Set your mind on a definite goal and observe how quickly the world stands aside to let you pass.

A goal is a dream with a deadline.

You must take action now that will move you towards your goals. Develop a sense of urgency in your life.

Handicaps can be converted into stepping stones on which one may climb towards some worthy goal, unless they are accepted as obstacles and used as alibis.

And so our goal on health care is, if we can get, instead of health care costs going up 6 percent a year, it’s going up at the level of inflation, maybe just slightly above inflation, we’ve made huge progress. And by the way, that is the single most important thing we could do in terms of reducing our deficit. That’s why we did it.

Of course, there is no question that Libya – and the world – will be better off with Gaddafi out of power. I, along with many other world leaders, have embraced that goal, and will actively pursue it through non-military means. But broadening our military mission to include regime change would be a mistake.

Of course, violence will not end with our combat mission. Extremists will continue to set off bombs, attack Iraqi civilians and try to spark sectarian strife. But ultimately, these terrorists will fail to achieve their goals.

The imagination is the goal of history. I see culture as an effort to literally realize our collective dreams.

I am not in competition with anyone but myself. My goal is to improve myself continuously.

The climate is like a bathtub that’s slowly filling up with water. Even if we slow the flow of water to a trickle, the tub will eventually fill up and water will come spilling out onto the floor. That’s the disaster we have to prevent. Setting a goal to only reduce our emissions—but not eliminate them—won’t do it.

The gods help them that help themselves

I will succeed and nothing in this world is going to stop me.

If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things.

The best people need little supervision.

Make your work to be in keeping with your purpose.

Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.

Every action needs to be prompted by a motive.

We fear to know the fearsome and unsavory aspects of ourselves, but we fear even more to know the godlike in ourselves

Surely God would not have created such a being as man, with an ability to grasp the infinite, to exist only for a day! No, no, man was made for immortality.”

I am rather inclined to silence, and whether that be wise or not, it is at least more unusual nowadays to find a man who can hold his tongue than to find one who cannot

The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.

You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry.

Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God’s side, for God is always righ

when your hopes and dreams and goals are dashed, search among the wreckage, you may find a golden opportunity hidden in the ruins.
