“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder.”

Thomas Carlyle

I think what Thomas is trying to say with this quote is that people have to have goals in life, it is strange if they do not. Just like the ship needs the rudder, then individuals need goals in their life to achieve. And their own goals depend on them to be completed, well if people want to complete them. I think he compared it because the ship and a rudder they need to be together to work and a man should always keep the goals in our minds for them to become reality. Also I think everyone should have goals because whatever you want to achieve in life will come true if you make it a priority. I think that if you keep your goals in mind you could do and become whatever you want. It is all up to you and you make the choices you want to do.
