there is a saying that “It’s better to aim for the stars and miss, than to aim for a pile of manure and hit it.” The original saying is from Michelangelo. He said, “The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we hit it.” If someone is going to set some goals, why not set them high? That way if you falter in reaching your goals, you are still further ahead than with not having a goal at all,let me give you an example, i personally hate running , but i have to run for soccer. Our coach loves nothing more than to see our times improve on the many workouts we have to suffer through. so in order to improve i could set some goals like to sprint across the field in 40 seconds, except the problem with this is i can go out and do that right now i wouldn’t really be improving my skill.if you make your goals too easy what good would that goal do you? None, right? so setting something more challenging like sprinting across the field in 20 sec is a lot harder and i might not ever be able to do it but while working towards my goal i will definitely improve more than if i hadn't set a goal in the first place “The tragedy in life doesn’t lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goals to reach.” so if anything just set something anything to reach for.
