As long as the goal is not tremendously big, life has no real purpose. If your goals are small they are no goals. You will be frustrated if you don’t achieve them, and you will be doubly frustrated if you achieve them. Having achieved them, you will find that the next goal is waiting for you, and that’s deep frustration. You will feel as if all your investment in reaching up to the first goal has totally gone down the drain.
Give yourself a goal that is a final one. Give yourself a goal after which no more goals will be needed. Give yourself the goal after which the goalsetter himself would be no more. That goal can only be that of your total annihilation: “Let me disappear; let me surrender myself to something so worthy that it deserves my total sacrifice.” Unless your goal is that magnificent, that worthy, that tremendous, you will be just frustrated.
