What do you think about people who do not have a purpose in life?

I'm sure that I had a purpose in life, but remembering what it was is getting more and more difficult as time passes. So commenting on others might not be the wise thing to do!

Hi, Aha, you are right, we should comment on ourselves before commenting on others.

I believe there's no such person who doesn't have a purpose in life. All of us are born because we have a purpose, it is just because of our "will" that we are not able to fulfill it because we are too preoccupied of doing something else not really beneficial to us. Some people are really just lazy, lacks motivation and lacks good vibes to push themselves of doing something amazing.

hi oya, no motivation and lazy, very bad. Maybe you're right that no single person who has a purpose in life. Yes, I realize that, we'd all have a purpose in life even as small as grains of sand. But the difference is the extent to which we are trying to achieve that goal. One good point of you.

I'm compassionate with these people Goals give a human act and live only a meaningful a man who has no goals is sad Unfortunately, not everyone has to know that human happiness where he wants to go there sometime.

not everyone has only one goal, all have the same convenience is as much a target as a caravan or the effort to live life without it always comes out on how consistent it pursues its objective and how far his own goals which are in the other paths.

I wonder how they can motivate themselves daily to get up and do their work. Finally, there are many things in life that one stink, but goals are what one is doing is unpleasant anyway. I think a man with no goals rather pointless lives from day to day. I fear someone who really has no goals, quickly tired of life. But I think many who claim to have no goals but have actually had any, they are simply not aware of this himself. If only for later times to have a better life or at some point someone (parents, boss, friend to prove that you can still control his life independently or bring something to it.

Everyone should have goals. If you have a goal to focus on the longer one is somehow boring. I think you need always inspiring.

I just think that these people are not doing it good to have no targets. I am sure you made ??of me before I had hardly any concrete goals in my life. Often I did not know where it should go long. Yes, I was then scheduled and often aimless. And I had depression! My doctor sent me for treatment in a psychosomatic clinic. This has helped me very well there. Above all, the talk therapy. After the treatment I then started to put my goals. Very small targets easy and the more goals I set, the better it was me. I was always happy when I had again reached a goal. Thus, my self-confidence grew and eventually I had no more depression. Although I am now not happy every day, but so real depression I have not since. Conclusion: So I think it's very very important to set goals. Can indeed be small targets. But without goals, it's not for me anymore. Now I am planning such as again my next trip. It's also yet another goal. And I plan my entry into the teaching profession....

Is that it? In one way or another, but all people have goals. I think anyway. However, whether these others always seem really desirable is another matter. And of course, whether the individual is also effortless willing to work for achieving this goal and to fight. One can hope so much. The only question is whether there is a realistic chance of making this dream a reality. There are so many people with the aim of pop star, top model, or multi-millionaire movie star to be. So you could not even claim that they only live aimlessly in the day. But how meaningful it is to set themselves such goals? And what about the people who have anything other than noble goals? Someone may also have the ambition to harm other people, to subdue them or even kill. Even one atomic bombing, a war or genocide are acts that someone had set the goal. So I am personally particularly important, which goals shall be a person. Blind ambition, I find rather frightening.
