Quote: Goals

If you talk to the average person, you discover that there are many things “preventing” them from doing what they want to do or getting what they want to get. They try to move in the direction of what they think they want, but it never seems to work out. Because they expect it to not work out, they do not throw all of their energy into what they want. They extend very minimal effort towards their goals. This begs the question though, if you extend minimal effort towards a goal and make it an option to not succeed, is the goal really a reflection of your true desires? Or is your goal a reflection of what you have been told you should desire?
