Goal Quotes
(30+ quotes)
Goal quotes are inspiring because they put goal-setting in proper perspective. Writing a list of goals alone will not reap results unless you apply action in the form of work and persistence.
Goals give us focus, but it is important to enjoy the ride and pay attention to detours because they may turn out to be short cuts on the road to achieving your most cherished dreams. Achieving goals takes planning, persistence, focus and enthusiasm. The best self-help goal-focused coaching advice comes from Winston Churchill who said, “Never, never, never, never give up.” You can do it!

Act as if you have already achieved your goal and it is yours.
Robert Anthony Tweet this Quote!
The tragedy in life does not lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach. It isn’t a calamity to die with dreams unfulfilled, but it is a calamity not to dream. It is not a disaster to be unable to capture your ideal, but it is a disaster to have no ideal to capture. It is not a disgrace not to reach the starts, but is is a disgrace to have no stars to reach for.
Benjamin E. Mays
This one step, choosing a goal and sticking to it, changes everything.

You must have long-range goals to keep you from being frustrated by short-range failures.
Charles C. Noble Tweet this Quote!
A goal is not the same as a desire, and this is an important distinction to make. You can have a desire you don't intend to act on. But you can't have a goal you don't intend to act on.
Tom Morris
Don't be a time manager, be a priority manager. Cut your major goals into bite-sized pieces. Each small priority or requirement on the way to ultimate goal become a mini goal in itself.
Denis Waitley
We need to set goals for ourselves. Start today…if you don’t have any goals, make your first goal getting some goals. You probably won’t start living happily ever after, but you may start living happily, purposefully, and with gratitude…Goals are gratitude in action. They give us the opportunity to build on what we already have. While achieving goals can be a lengthy process, we can learn to be grateful for each stage in the process of setting and meeting goals.
Melody Beattie
Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.
Jim Rohn Tweet this Quote!

Julius Erving Tweet this Quote!
Goals help focus you on areas in both your personal and professional life that are important and meaningful, rather than being guided by what other people want you to be, do, or accomplish.
Catherine Pulsifer
I feel that the most important step in any major accomplishment is setting a specific goal. This enables you to keep your mind focused on your goal and off the many obstacles that will arise when you're striving to do your best.
Kurt Thomas
The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.
Denis Waitley
You have to know what you want to get.
Gertrude Stein Tweet this Quote!
Goals are a means to an end, not the ultimate purpose of our lives. They are simply a tool to concentrate our focus and move us in a direction. They only reason we really pursue goals is to cause ourselves to expand and grow. Achieving goals by themselves will never make us happy in the long term; it's who you become, as you overcome the obstacles necessary to achieve your goals, that can give you the deepest and most long-lasting sense of fulfillment.
Anthony Robbins
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.
Earl Nightingale
Arriving at one goal is the starting point to another.
John Dewey Tweet this Quote!
Establishing goals is all right if you don't let them deprive you of interesting detours.
Doug Larson Tweet this Quote!
Obstacles are those frightful things we see when we take our eyes off our goal.
Henry Ford Tweet this Quote!
Each one of us has a fire in our heart for something. It's our goal in life to find it and keep it lit.
Mary Lou Retton
Crystallize your goals. Make a plan for achieving them and set yourself a deadline. Then, with supreme confidence, determination and disregard for obstacles and other people's criticisms, carry out your plan.
