Fine Line?

I often wonder if it's important to have objective goals in life, goals like becoming something, becoming rich and/or famous, etc. I mean, it's not like I am goalless but are my goals really important? 

Hello there, I call myself the Earthian.

One perk of being goal oriented is the fact that I can be as objective as I want to be. I mean, Except for my goals and the consequences of my goals, nothing else would really matter, and that is extremely powerfully fueling. But one big demerit is that in my road, in my path to achieve something, with the attitude that I carry myself with, I can take a lot of hostages with me. I know for a fact that if I treat something that's lifeless better than things that are lively, I'll just be a successful failure. I'd achieve all of my goals, sure, but I'll lose everything else.

And then there is this other way of living life, living with absolutely no goals and no clarity. Going wherever life takes me, not because I chose to do so but because I have no idea of who I am. Everything is fuzzy this way and all that's possible for me to do is get caught up in the moments that don't really matter and keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again. 

Neither of these ways seem like they're worthy. But I'm sure there is a fine line somewhere. 

Lots of love, peace.
