This was a question I was asked lately. It took me quite a bit of thought to discover that my goal is to pass on positive energy. This means overcomming my ego in difficult situations, not joining in conversations that premote negative responses. Sharing good news only

That's a pretty good goal. Mine is to be as good a person as I can be, I guess.

My main goal in life is to just live life to its fullist and be happy. Sometimes life can bring a person down but you just have to hold your head up high and know that tomorrow will be better. I always tell myself why be sad when you can be happy today. I have decided to live my life with a positive attitude and it has gotten me far.

I love your goal I guess my goal is to try an be the best person I can be no matter how hard I have to work to be that. I think my goals kinda change throughout though. Right now it is getting my girls raised with morals and skills for the world. I don't know the ultimate goal yet..I wonder if I am supposed to already know? Maybe I'm a late bloomer.

During different periods of person's life the main goals a also different. Ten years ago for example my main goal was to exceed in my career but now I feel it's much more important for me to take good care of my kids in order to prepare them for their future. When they grow up enough to have their own families then may be my main goal will be to enjoy life. Who knows :).

sometimes it can be a good or a bad thing, you cant always share good news for example, theres always a time when you will have to be faced with a bad situation right? its good to have a goal aiming that big though, hope you willbe able to continue on with what you do.

My main goal in life is to be happy and contented and also to make the people I love to be happy and contented. That means I have to be successful in every aspect of my life. I just really want to be contented and get old and retire with my loved ones by my side.

Life is a bowl of Cherrys! I spend most of my days keeping all the Cherrys in the bowl, and the birds from stealing the Cherrys. Occasionally I allow a favorite bird to take a Cherry off the top. Yesterday I made a Cherry pie, using just the Cherrys that were growing over-ripe, and adding sugar and tapioca. The rest of the Cherrys are still in the bowl, just as red, and as sweet as ever. Anyone for a piece of Cherry Pie?

Yours is a good goal that’s for sure. My goal in life is to be happy and spread that onto others hopefully! I don’t know exactly what would bring that about all of the time but it is what I pray for; for my cup to be so full that I have plenty leftover to help others.

My main goal in life is to help my family and to build a family on my own and have a good job as well. As long as everybody is happy that would make me happy also.

I just want to be happy and successful, whatever those may entail. To have a fulfilling career, to raise a family with the person I love and then be able to spend as much time with them as possible. Anything that comes along as well as those is a bonus to me. Obviously I want to have some amazing experiences but those are my biggest priorities.

Hi savypat, That's a good goal to have in life and I feel that my goal is much like you own. Certainly I like to be positive and I like to speak only good of others. I don't always do a good job at it however but I keep trying. Reaching out to others with compassion and neither condemning nor judging anyone is always best. Of course even Jesus became upset with the religious leaders of his day, who like to preach but didn't practice their faith. He advised his followers to neither judge nor condemn. Blessings.

Hi Pat When I was younger I had many goals in life but now that I am older I just go with the flow. I think sometimes we can put too much pressure on ourselves and it is better just to appreciate who and what you have

Right on, savypat. That's a really great, selfless goal. Mine is a bit more selfish than your's however :/ My main goal in life is to attain the unattainable; by this I mean the power of knowledge. I would love to be educated in nearly everything, know several languages, and histories of different cultures. Some say it isn't good to have a goal that you'll never meet, but I'm going to die with the satisfaction that I tried my hardest to learn things.
