Independent Aspirations

Life goals and aspirations we do not need to depend on others. To me this is the best type of life goal. Why? Because nothing can thwart our attempt, or accomplishment or achievement. It is all on you.

Once again — set yourself audacious life goals, which you could achieve without the nod or approval of anybody else. Independent aspirations.
