The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never scoring.
~~ William Taylor (Bill) Copeland ~~

I agree. It is very important to have a goal. While some people might have the motivation and the discipline for achievements, most of us lack such motivation and discipline. Setting a goal gives us the needed motivation and discipline to work towards that goal.

It is important to set a realistic, attainable goal because if the goal is unrealistic, you’ll soon lose the motivation and you’ll stop making consistent efforts to move towards that goal. It also helps to set sub-goals or benchmarks to measure progress along the way towards your goal and if you miss some benchmarks, analyze and learn as to why you missed those benchmarks and to avoid similar pitfalls in the future.

Success is knowing the difference between cornering people and getting them in your corner.
~~ William Taylor (Bill) Copeland ~~

This is so very true and the keyword here is ‘knowing’. If you can master that and bring people in your corner then success is guaranteed.
