"Men do not succeed in business or in life, no matter how intelligent they may be, no matter how sharply their aptitudes are defined, no matter how brilliantly they may be educated unless they are oriented toward the proper goals and have the drive or motivating force to succeed. One has to want something mighty hard and keep on wanting things all his life. . . ."
Wallace H. Wulfeck

"There is no chance, no destiny, no fate,
That can circumvent or hinder or control
The firm resolve of a determined soul."

Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate,
As they voyage along through life;
‘Tis the will of the soul
That decides its goal,
And not the calm or the strife."
Ella Wheeler Wilcox

"We all need lots of powerful long-range goals to help us past the short-term obstacles.
Jim Rohn

"We do believe in setting goals. We live by goals. In athletics we always have a goal. When we go to school, we have the goal of graduation and degrees. Our total existence is goal-oriented.
We must have goals to make progress, encouraged by keeping records . . . as the swimmer or the jumper or the runner does . . .
Progress is easier when it is timed, checked, and measured. . . .
Goals are good. Laboring with a distant aim sets the mind in a higher key and puts us at our best.
Goals should always be made to a point that will make us reach and strain."
Spencer W. Kimball

"Please don’t nag yourself with thoughts of failure. Do not set goals far beyond your capacity to achieve. Simply do what you can do, in the best way you know, and the Lord will accept of your effort."Gordon B. Hinckley
