It is said that those with high kinesthetic intelligence are those who shine in martial arts, competitive games, and circuses. The eyes, ears, and the whole attention of a soccer or basketball player are always on the moving ball. Their goal is how to get that ball into the opposite team's goal net or basket. Without taking their eyes off the ball, and without looking at each player of one's own team separately, they accurately determine in their minds where the members of the opposing team and their own team are on the court. The goal they constantly keep in mind is not to win the game, but to reach the opposing team's goal post or basket. For this, they mobilize and bring out the maximum potential of their body and mind. There will be many obstacles and challenges from the opposing team. There will also be challenges from their own team's shortcomings. There will also be challenges from one's own limitations. In the end, there will also be a goal keeper of the opposite team who will try his best to stop you. However, if the goal is clear, if the mind is focused, and if the body is maximally trained to be agile, victory will be yours.

If the goal is to show off your own style of play, if the goal is to teach a lesson to a player of the opposite team, if the goal is to take revenge on the member of the opposing team who knocked you down last time, if the goal is to obtain financial gain and advancement in your career, the team may not win the game.

In Mahabharata, when Dronacharya asks his students "what do you see", they say, "I see a tree, I see leaves, I see a bird." Arjuna but says, "I see the eye of a bird," if your focus is only on the target, and it's clear for you the arrow will reach the destination.

The same is true in life. Whether in the family, in Religious life, in sports, in politics, or in the church, again the same holds true.

Look at the Syrophoenician woman in the Gospel. She has just one goal. Her daughter must get well. She is not pulled back by the fact that she is a woman, or that she is of Syrophoenician origin, or how the Jews would look at her, or the fear whether she would be humiliated, and not even the suspicion whether the teacher's words were intended to be a racial slur. The goal is important to her. She scores the goal despite the strong defense apparently placed before her.

The lack of clarity of the goal is the reason for all failures.

Are you clear about the goal?

Just try articulating to yourself what your goal is.
