About This Quote

Obstacles are those frightening things you see when you take your eyes off your goal. It is the purpose of an obstacle to remind us of our goal. A goal can be something as simple as "I want to buy a house" or "I want to save up enough money for college." Obstacles are there to keep us on track, to remind us that our goals are worth pursuing.
