30 Goals Quotes to Pursue Your Dreams with Boldness and Enthusiasm

Everyone wants

something in life, whether it be happiness, health or money. Having goals gives

our life meaning and achieving them makes it fulfilling.

Setting a clear goal,

however, is not always an easy task. We may be indecisive of what we want, but

once we know, we’re taking the first step to getting it.

No matter what we

plan to achieve, we all experience that phase where the hill becomes harder to

climb. We might give up on our goal for good or change it into something that

takes less effort, something we believe to be more “realistic”.

Whenever you feel

like throwing in the towel, remember that all the achievers that you look up to

have felt the same way at some point -- but kept on going. The following goals quotes

will inspire you to follow your dreams even when the going gets tough.

As long as you’re passionate enough about what you want to accomplish, nothing will stand in your way. Your passion will make you commit and try harder when obstacles arise.
