Goals are plans that help make your dreams come true. They're essential to living the life you want. Through goals, you can make small changes that become significant changes in your life. It starts with one moment that leads to a day, and so on. Without them, you have no direction and may fall victim to someone else's goals. By that, I mean if you don't have goals for your life, someone else will. You will inevitably be a part of another person's dreams and aspirations. I don't want that for myself and certainly not for anyone else.
