Goals transform a random walk into a chase.

Summary

This quote highlights the significance of goals in guiding our actions and giving purpose to our lives. Without goals, our journey through life would appear aimless and without direction - like a random walk. However, when we have clear goals in mind, we become motivated to steadily progress towards them, transforming our journey into an exhilarating chase. Goals provide us with focus, drive, and a sense of accomplishment as we actively pursue our desired outcome, making the journey more meaningful and rewarding.
