The more organized of us have goals in our life. Things we would like to achieve in life. But do you have a goal for your life? What do you want to achieve with the life you have?

"Each time you want to know what to pursue or what to avoid, look to your highest good, the aim of your life as a whole. Everything we do ought to be in accordance with that aim. Only one who has the entirety of his life in view is in a position to arrange life’s particulars. Even with paints all at the ready, no one can render a likeness until he has decided what he wants to paint. That’s our mistake: everyone deliberates over the parts of life; no one over life as a whole. If you want to shoot an arrow, you must know what you are trying to hit: only then can you direct the point and steady the shaft. Our counsels are all astray in that they have no mark to aim at. If one doesn’t know what harbor to make for, there can be no favoring wind."

- Seneca, Letters 71.2-3
