“In life as in football, you won’t go far, unless you know where the goalposts are.”

Arnold H. Glasgow 

This quote means that you have to strive for your goals and know what they are. You can’t score and not know why u scored. You have to set your mind to some goals and want to achieve them. Like in the game of football, you know which goal post is yours, so you do whatever you can to get the ball through that goal and score. The same things apply to life. For example, you want to graduate and walk the stage. That’s your goal, so you are going to do whatever it takes to pass all your classes and meet all the requirements in order to do so. You have to have goals in life and strive to achieve them.
