Student Success Statement
"A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder."
Thomas Carlyle
What this quote is trying to say is that if you don't set any goals, then where are you heading. If a ship doesn't have a rudder, the wind takes it wherever it wants to go. So if a man doesn't have a goal then he's not going to know what direction to go. When you set goals, you know what you're gonna do and what you're going to work on to achieve that goal. For example, when a person sets a goal to graduate then that person will work hard to achieve that goal. If a person doesn't set any goals then they themselves won't know where they are headed. These people without goals will just have to wait and see where life takes them. When they wait there is a big chance that they end being in a place or circumstance that they wouldn't like to be at. It's important to set goals so you can know what you want to do with your life and not be lost most of the time. Making goals will make it easier for you to run through your life because you know what you want. The ship needs a rudder just like you need goals. So you should make goals and you'll see that you will start achieving them and your life will make much more sense.
