Goals
Have you ever run into someone who says "Oh no...I don't have any goals, I don't like them"? I've had some intelligent people say that to me, and it boggles my mind. Unless you are completely apathetic you have goals. The most recent example was an intelligent woman talking to me about english-somethingelse double majoring, and getting published, and she tells me she has no goals!
I just don't get it, do people not understand what goals are? If this is the case goals must have gotten a bad rap in grade school or something for me to keep running into these people. It's like there's some negative stereotype associated with them and people are afraid to have them, even though its nearly impossible to escape them.
Or is this just a coincidence and I just happen to be running into some wierd people? Does anyone else encounter people like this and just wonder...?
