“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder”.

-Thomas Carlyle

A rudder is located in a ship. A rudder is responsible of guiding the boat to a certain destination or location. In this quote the rudder is represented as a goal, and the man is represented as the ship. What this quote is influencing is, a goal you have is what will make you move and determined to reach that goal. As in representation in a ship, the rudder is what will get the ship to the destination or location the one behind the wheel determine to set sea in. A goal is the main concept in this quote. A goal can mean something much more than a goal. A goal is a way to continue and strive in life so we can accomplish more. Without a goal, there is no movement or desire to get to a certain reach. An individual with no goals in life will not move and not reach a certain life they desire. Only the idea of having goals set in mind will encourage you to accomplish them, without it there are no movement to ensure life.

An example that can follow up this quote is your own self. Yourself is the only person that can make yourself improve or do nothing. Yourself is your remote to your buttons. An individual themselves can only determine if they desire to accomplish something. A goal is not just a goal, but it is a personal development we make for our own selves. A goal is our way to set something so we can grow or get to a certainty. Without goals we wouldn’t learn from our mistakes and learn from them. Goals are in our everyday lives, it the decisions we make that change everything.

This quote has a powerful meaning. What this quote focuses on is the way of achievement and great impact to your life.

When you choose the right you make nothing but good choices that help you continue on the right path. Your dreams and your path are two different things in your world.

"Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want now. Write down what you want most and see it often." Peter Vidmar
   This quote relates what we are personally doing at the moment, writing in our goals journals goals we would like to accomplish. Peter is a Gold Olympic champion with scores of perfect ten's.What this quote is stating is when you are at the moment don't sacrifice to much effort to try to get to a really high level, with time and a daily reminder what you want the most for yourself or others will eventually occur. What you want to earn and get to takes time. What his statement states to me is that what you want the most for yourself shouldn't be sacrificed right now to get to the top. As a goal  setter i recommend to take the time and patient to continue giving your effort to do your best. The other part to Peters quote is as well very well stated to do your best to achieve the best. As his personal strategy what he did was basically write his own goal to become an Olympic champion and a gold medalist with perfect ten's. With time and patients, Peter was able to accomplish.Seeing his own personal strategy it is evidence of what we are doing now that can help us in the future. Sacrifice you time,effort, and patients and you will succeed and achieve what you really want in te future with a daily reminder.
    A great example to represent Peter's quote is our educational life. Every week we attend school four to five days a week, we focus on different assignments, and we are given assignments to work on. Following on, those assignments are your preparation and practice before a quiz or test that you never wish to fail on. As for personal experience, i have a daily reminder that i see everyday to remind me to do my best and give my best to do the best i can in my test. As time fly's we sacrifice our time and determination to stay committed to what is asked of me to do better in school and in my future. As for this example, you should give your time and effort to school itself to do the best and achieve the best in the future. Right now you sacrifice your time and effort to achieve the best, with that commitment and daily reminder you have for yourself will give you that goal you have set yourself. That goal will be achieved and you will be successful in your school work, when you graduate, and your future.

Goals can be used to help create and do something new or improved in you. A great way to create a goal is when you are in sport or your own imagine on yourself. I personally create personal goals and I create goals for my athletic self. In the sport Volleyball, others see it as easy, but it isn't. Others think it easy when you see, but when you do its a different story. I personally set goals to do and achieve better in this sport. For example, before season started my goal was too have the position 4,hitter, with time and dedication i became that position. I found this position my weakness, because i didn't really know how to hit or the actual steps and position to hit. It was very hard to learn, but now i conquered and became the position. Goal setting brings the better you.
