Enthusiasm for one's goal lessens the disagreeableness of working toward it.
To me, the amazing thing is that so much that was science fiction back then, political fiction, today is reality. We have indeed a spacecraft called an international space station. And we have the diversity of this planet working on that ship, including Americans and Russians working side by side. I think the imagineers are the ones that set the goal. And the inventors and the technicians see that as a goal to work toward, or the political scientists and the diplomats. And eventually, that's arrived at.
The best teamwork comes from men who are working independently toward one goal in unison.
I just love working hard. I love being part of a team; I love working toward a common goal.
We strive toward a goal, and whether we achieve it or not is important, but it's not what's most important. What matters is how we move toward that goal.
Leadership is the ability to encourage the best efforts of others in working toward a desirable goal.

I have a very distinct goal all the time that I'm working toward, and I love the way it makes me live.
Your real purpose in life is to develop yourself. To successfully do this you must always be working toward a goal.
The best thanks we could offer those who went before and raised the Irish working class from their knees was to press forward with determination and enthusiasm towards the ultimate goal of their efforts, a Co-operative Commonwealth for Ireland.
It turns out that the process of working toward a goal, participating in a valued and challenging activity, is as important to well-being as its attainment.
Each one of us has some goal we want to reach, and we must work toward that goal one step at a time. You can’t reach toward that goal and expect it on the first try. All your small steps will bring you just a little closer. You must continue to work toward this goal. You may take a few steps back or be at a standstill, but you will be learning from each step. Through hard work, self-confidence and motivation, you will find ways to move ahead. You alone can help yourself to move ahead in life and gain personal satisfaction. You only get out of life what you put into it.
When there's a clear vision, and you've got the creative teams working toward that goal, each on their own, it can then come together quite elegantly at the endpoint.
By training and keeping doctors in underserved areas, we're working toward a goal of increasing access to quality health care for more of our communities.
You must be as joyful when you fail again and again as you are joyful when you succeed. It is often when you fail that you move toward the goal without being aware of it. You must feel joy even when you have not fully succeeded but only moved toward achievement of your goal.
Striving toward a goal puts a more pleasing construction on our advance toward death.
