What are your goals?

I was talking to someone today who is very smart. And they said something along the lines of this:
“If you aren’t reaching your goals, you need to either change what you are doing, or change your goals.” The third option, of course, is to continue doing exactly what you’ve been doing, continuing to get the same result and, essentially, failing.
I thought about what they had said for a moment, and realized that I don’t really have goals. I just kind of bumble along, waiting to see what happens next. Or, as Piglet would say: “I wonder what’s going to happen exciting today.”
Which is fine, if what comes your way is enough. But it certainly limits your options, as opposed to going out and seeking things.
