"People with goals succeed because they know where they’re going."- Earl Nightingale
Great ideas are never to be taken seriously unless it points to a destination. There too many great ideas out there and the fact that they are greatly being misused, they turn out to be great burdens on the supposed ecosystem of the world.
Goals. What they are.
There is usually lots of definitions you will find for goals and what they mean or should mean. We push to achieve our goals no matter what comes when we find that are goals are not being achieved, we get pretty hurt and mostly disappointed. But for those who have path-oriented goals, they keep going until they score.
I know there are lots of football fans here and what they do is to make sure they lend their utmost support to their favorite team and whether they win or loose, they stick with their team. It pretty much should be the same with life's pursuit.
Are there Arsenal fans here??? Yes, there are. (I am not going to gist too much about it, I am sure we all should catch the drift,) hehehe.
Be a Ronaldo if you have to.
In life, you must be determined as you are talented (or want to believe you are). Having a great idea is not enough. Investors invest in what they can see working and not what you tell them will work. You must be the one who takes into practice the full work scope of getting your ideas into reality.
In the game of football, the game comes first and no matter what happens, these footballers give it their all and will not stop competing until the final whistle sounds.
The game of life is much like the game of sports, there is always an opponent that either losses for you to win or wins for you to loose. We are mostly unaware of the competitive nature of life and everything therein. We think because we are alive is reason enough for us to win in everything we do.
That mentality is prevalent in everyone, but it takes the determined and forward thinking individual to grow beyond that and move to a pedestal where, they are aware the game is much tougher for the players than it is for the spectators.
Be responsible and live within that light, drop that false entitlement lifestyle that gets you no where. Responsibility makes the net of victory shake and dance.
Goals are not given, they are scored.
Goals are not given, you must score goals to have them read for you. Thinking of having your goal because you think you are entitled is the worst thing anyone will do to themselves. You must exhibit levels of responsibility to get a go at your goal.
Spectating is not what players do, players play games and then have the spectators boost their moral with diehard loyalty, songs, chants, rowdiness and most times hooliganism.
To win, step into the field of play, get hurt, get ruffled, fight like you are in a battlefield and then see what happens with your hustle.

Make clear cut plans to achieving your goals and do not settle for less. Show that there is nothing that can stop you from shaking the net. (Have you ever wondered why the goal post has a net? Well, wonder no further, just go and make it shake!)
The winning ways lifestyle states that, you must make your goals happen. So, go out there and shake the nets. It can never get too shaken enough.
To succeed in life, on Steemit, on the Blockchain or even in the centralized system, you must start with one simple process, "KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING" and arm yourself with your goals.
