這里有夢(mèng)想和目標(biāo)的10個(gè)不同點(diǎn)

Goals are something you are acting on.

目標(biāo)是你正在做的某些事。

Dreams are something you are just thinking about. Goals require action. Dreams can happen without lifting a finger, even while you are asleep.

夢(mèng)想是你內(nèi)心正在思考的某些東西。目標(biāo)需要行動(dòng)。睡覺的時(shí)候可以產(chǎn)生夢(mèng)想，甚至不動(dòng)一根手指也一樣可以辦到。

Goals have deadlines. Dreams are just, well, dreams.

目標(biāo)是有期限的，而夢(mèng)想只是夢(mèng)想。

Goals must have a deadline. They have a time limit. Dreams can go on forever. In fact, many people maintain dreams their entire lives without ever reaching them.

目標(biāo)肯定有一個(gè)有效期，它們是有時(shí)間限制的。但是夢(mèng)想?yún)s能永遠(yuǎn)存在。事實(shí)上，許多人都有一個(gè)一生都沒能實(shí)現(xiàn)的夢(mèng)想。

Dreams are free. Goals have a cost.

夢(mèng)想不需要你支付任何東西，而目標(biāo)是需要付出代價(jià)的。

目標(biāo)是可以產(chǎn)生一定的結(jié)果的，但夢(mèng)想不會(huì)。

想要你的生活，工作，社會(huì)地位有些改變嗎?目標(biāo)可以幫你做到。我的一個(gè)好朋友出版的電子書數(shù)量超過了六位數(shù)，他確實(shí)做到了。如果他一直讓夢(mèng)想只是夢(mèng)想的話，他的生活還是跟以往一樣，沒有任何改變。
