A Quote by Cameron van der Burgh

My dream was always to win in the Olympic Games, but I never set that next goal, and I have realised now I need to set another goal. — © Cameron van der Burgh
My dream was always to win in the Olympic Games, but I never set that next goal, and I have realised now I need to set another goal.
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
Let me start with issuing you a challenge: Be better than you are. Set a goal that seems unattainable, and when you reach that goal, set another one even higher.
My first goal was to become world champion and I did that against Ricky Burns at 135. Once I conquered that, I set myself another goal and another goal.
It's better to set a big goal to try and then fail than to never set a goal in the first place.
To be here, is a dream come true. A dream is something that you set for yourself, not what other people set for you. When I qualified in Seville I burst into tears. I couldn't believe that I was going to the Olympic Games.
I set goals, but they're mostly very personal goals. I never try and set a goal where 'I want to win this,' or 'I want to do this,' where other people can affect what I do. If I want to swim a new best time, I sit down and work out the best way of doing that. Whether I can shave a few tenths of a second off a turn or the start, my goal is putting them all together in a race. That's the way I set my goals.
When I became a principal at the Royal Ballet it was my childhood goal, a dream and I became it at 19. And then I said 'what's next?' and I set myself a different goal at 19 to become an actor.
(After the losses) I decided I had to break through. I had to set a goal. My goal that I set was to never be pinned.
Never quit. It is the easiest cop-out in the world. Set a goal and don't quit until you attain it. When you do attain it, set another goal, and don't quit until you reach it. Never quit.
I had a lot of stats in college, and they didn't count for wins. So whatever it takes to win football games is the goal that I set.
I felt like it was time to set up my future, so I set a goal. My goal was independence.
Don't aim too high, but set yourself a goal which is a little bit out of your reach. You might achieve it and then you can set a new goal.
Set a goal, measure it, change if you need to, keep going after the goal.
And from that nineteen sixty four, this was my goal to go to Olympic Games. And I realized what does it mean, Olympic Games, like big celebration.
My goal is to win a gold medal at the Olympic Games, and I'll fight and continue going until I do that.
Throughout my athletic career, the overall goal was always to be a better athlete than I was at the moment – whether next week, next month or next year. The improvement was the goal. The medal was simply the ultimate reward for achieving that goal.
