Examples are as follows:
Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass.
Because we have no plan and no goal in life, it is inevitable that we will lose the direction of life, just like rushing into the clouds and finding no direction. We don't know where to go or how to get there, so we can only comfort ourselves by living in the present. Even many times, I choose to go with the flow.
We sometimes use emotions to explain this chaotic state. When you are in a good mood, you are awake, and when you are in a bad mood, you are confused. In fact, it's not the mood, but that we don't have a clear direction in life. When a ship sails on the sea and goes to the other side, besides the lighthouse, it is indispensable to have a compass. We and our goals in life are like the relationship between a boat and a compass.
Compass helps navigation to identify the direction and reach the other side. Life is not an impossible voyage. Without a compass, you are doomed to get lost.
Some people say that the goal of life is too big to achieve, but we all know that any big goal is made up of countless small goals. Just like solving math problems in high school, every solution in our work, even every book, is closely linked step by step.
Therefore, the goal of life, to be exact, is a big goal of life composed of each of our small goals. In order to reach the other shore smoothly, we need to break down each small goal.
