What's the difference between 'personal goal', 'personal purpose' and 'personal object'?

The words "goal" and "objective" are usually used to describe stages or intermediate steps in a larger project. For example, a person might say, "His goal was to be the best in the class that year". This was a step in his education. A person might say, "The first objective was to capture the fort". This was a step in the overall conflict. The word "purpose" is used more accurately to describe a more final and fixed determination. For example, a person would say, "My purpose in starting this retail business was to offer people quality goods at lower prices". This would be an ongoing endeavour. Hope this helps

Hi David, - Personal goal is something that you want to achieve. - The personal purpose is the reason for which you exist. - A personal object is an object that belongs to you.
