Life's Goals

We all attend motivational courses at least once in our life time, but a lot of people would have attended numerous courses. And after awhile it is more like an addiction towards these courses, it happens most often to people who seek career in the insurance industries and direct selling business. Are these courses beneficial to the attendees? Most people will give a solid yes without even a blink of the eye, why? Because all attendees will feel recharged after the course and energetically continue to pursue their career, this is very great, but then if we look deeper, motivation shall come from within ourselves. And what is within us? Then it boils down to the goals in life, which is the most favorite topic of all motivators, goals setting.

Everybody will start to take a pen and paper to write down what they want, and most of the time is mostly material objects, like cars, houses, vacation and so on. They start to work on it and achieve it, then the car is not big enough and the next goal is to acquire a bigger, and will never end. One day this person will sits down and ask himself, did I achieve success in life?

Then he will ask himself what success is and what are the goals in life? This is an age old question in life, but there is no definite answer to it.
