Even though it isn’t the very beginning of the year, this is still a good time to set goals (or reset goals). I’m a believer that even if you had resolutions you’ve already broken, it’s not too late to start again.

Best Goal Quotes

Athletes are used to setting goals, but goals are useful for anyone. Here are my favorite goal quotes:

“Goals are dreams with deadlines.” Diana Scharf Hunt

“Glory lies in the attempt to reach one’s goal and not in reaching it.” Mohandas Gandhi

“A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at.” Bruce Lee

“Arriving at one goal is the starting point to another.” John Dewey

“Whoever wants to reach a distant goal must take small steps.” Saul Bellow

“If you don’t know where you are going, you’ll probably end up somewhere else.” Lewis Carroll

“People with goals succeed because they know where they are going… It’s as simple as that.” Earl Nightingale
