GOALS

According to Wikipedia: a goal is a desired result or outcome that a person or a system envisions, plans and commits to achieve. 
We all have different goals in life and at different points in life. As we grow and mature, new goals arise. Either in our career, education, finances, relationships, etcetera etcetera. 

But what exactly is our goal based on? 
Is it out of pure drive and will to succeed and be better versions of ourselves? Or is to compete with the next person, to be bigger and better than he/she is? If it's the first reason, spot on! Carry on you're on track. But If it's the latter well you have to reevaluate. 

I personally believe that our lives are different. Everyone has a distinct role to play that's different from the other person. What I can do, someone else can't do the same way. And vice versa. 
If you live your life based on someone else's then you're making a mistake. 

If you have to set goals set them for yourself. To better yourself not because you're trying to impress or outshine the next person. LIVE YOUR LIFE FOR YOU. If you are successful you are the number one beneficiary, no one else.  

So set your goals based on what you want to achieve for yourself. Because YOU want it. Try not to let your goals be influenced by other people. Yes it's healthy to let other people's successful stories inspire you. But like I said 'inspire' not 'influence'
I hope this shines a little light on your perspective of things. I will be back again to discuss some more with you. I hope this has been helpful.
