To win a race, you have to cross the finish line first.
The goal is the end or objective of an action or plan . For example: “My goal is to finish my degree next year and then travel to the United States,” “Ramón's goal is to save until he can buy a car,” “I know that the road is arduous; but never lose sight of your goal.”
The human species defines itself as the only one capable of understanding and deserving the concepts of freedom and reason ; Continuing with this idea that for many is unfounded and arbitrary, it considers that its existence must have an objective beyond living and respecting the rest of the inhabitants of the planet. Goals are precisely those challenges that people set for themselves, which transcend natural needs such as food.
Mastery as a goal
Through this search a series of phenomena that are as peculiar as they are dangerous occur. Firstly, we are losing our connection with nature; We give our lives a meaning that we ourselves invent , that we believe we have discovered using our intellectual tools. We assure that animals do not think and do not feel, but we have never received confirmation from them about this. We exploit resources without any consideration, we destroy forests and dry up rivers; all in pursuit of our ultimate goal: absolute domination of the world and, if possible, the entire universe.
Outside of this global objective, which unfortunately represents us, but which is a consequence of this denaturalization, people tend to believe that our presence on Earth is very important, that each one must find their mission and carry it out to give meaning to his life. An individual who is born in a city and who does not come into contact with the soil and the rest of the animal species except in a park or a zoo, who does not have to get his own food or build his own house, has an excess of time. and energies with respect to the first homo sapiens .
It is precisely the existence of this capital that gives rise to questioning the reasons for our passage through reality and setting ourselves a series of goals, to once again feel like productive beings. The variety of these objectives is considerable, although they bring us closer to the rest of human beings much closer than we believe, or want to believe. Two decades ago, the media showed us a small portion of reality, adorned with seemingly unique heroic figures, with apparently authentic goals ; Today, the Internet shows us millions of people with similar talents, with similar interests, with similar goals .
In soccer, goal is synonymous with goal and goal.
