The soul that has no established aim loses itself.
Life has a value only when it has something valuable as its object.
He turns not back who is bound to a star.
He might never really do what he said, but at least he had it in mind. He had somewhere to go.
The great and glorious masterpiece of man is how to live with a purpose.
What most counts is not to live, but to live aright.
Choosing a goal and sticking to it changes everything.
No wind serves him who addresses his voyage to no certain port.
Laboring toward distant aims sets the mind in a higher key, and puts us at our best.
Everything's in the mind. That's where it all starts. Knowing what you want is the first step toward getting it.
Set short term goals and you'll win games. Set long term goals and you'll win championships!
We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us really happy is something to be enthusiastic about.
Unhappiness is in not knowing what we want and killing ourselves to get it.
Having a dream isn't stupid. ... It's not having a dream that's stupid.
Happiness is the overcoming of not unknown obstacles toward a known goal.
To have no set purpose in one's life is the harlotry of the will.
There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.
Strong lives are motivated by dynamic purposes.
One of the sources of pride in being a human being is the ability to bear present frustrations in the interests of longer purposes.
Only he who can see the invisible can do the impossible.
