Mission Control

Marshall Goldsmith

On the surface, 'purpose' and 'goal' seem to be similar, if not synonymous, terms. But in parsing the definitions, we discover they're very different concepts. - Goals are specific objectives we strive to achieve, usually within defined parameters of space, time and resources. - Purpose is the 'why' behind any thought or deed. Purpose is not about achieving a goal--it's more of a way of life.
