If you search on a search engine for “no goals” or “life without goals” you get some sites that emphasize the importance of setting and achieving goals, but there are some other voices who say that setting goals is often an issue for them, so they try to live without goals.
Some of the problems they indicate are that goals often end up being achieved differently or on a different schedule, so it seems pointless to set goals, or they can get things done without making it in to a “goal”.
I was curious if you’ve seen this philosophy and experimented with it: what are your opinions on “living without goals”?
Sometimes as an example in skateboarding I would just ride around and an idea of a trick to try would come up and I would just go try it out and see what happens… in a way you could say it was a “goal”, but in another way it wasn’t really, but lots of tricks got attempted and naturally one trick led to another without much of an elaborate " goal setting" process
