Document Summary
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are the three unalienable rights given to all. American citizens under the constitution of the united states.

To start with, goals keep a person motivated and constantly trying to better themselves, others around them, their job, and anything or anybody else they interact with. They help you achieve your dreams and are key to being successful and happy.
