This is a true story.
A certain lady contracted cancer when her son was only two. To make matters worse, her husband had died only three months before her illness was diagnosed. Her physicians offered little hope. But she would not give up. She was determined that she would see her son through college by operating a small retail store left her by her husband. There were numerous surgical operations. Each time the doctors would say, “Just a few more months.”
The cancer was never cured. But those “few months” stretched into twenty years. She saw her son graduated from college. Six weeks later, she was gone.
The moral of the story: Goals give us something to look forward to, they give us a reason to get up everyday. Don’t have goals? Then you probably don’t have a life. Set goals today.
