A Quote by Daniel Handler

After a certain age, you couldn't even say where you were from. You went someplace, and lived there. And then you went someplace else. — © Daniel Handler

Goal setting is fine if you want to be the warrior archetype. These people are setting goals constantly and trying to get someplace else. They say, "If you don't know where you are going, then you won't know when you get there."

You never are going to get there. Instead, what you want to do is get to a place where you are at peace. You are connected to God.
