"没有确立目标的灵魂会迷失自我。"

Simplified Meaning:

When someone doesn't have clear goals or a sense of purpose, they can feel lost and unsure about what to do with their life. Imagine a ship without a destination—it just drifts around in the ocean, getting nowhere. In the same way, a person without aims or plans may end up feeling confused and unsatisfied because they have nothing to guide them. For example, if a student goes to school without any idea of what they want to achieve, they might not take their studies seriously, leading to poor grades and missed opportunities. To avoid feeling this way, it's important to set specific goals, like working towards a career you are passionate about or even smaller targets like learning a new hobby. Setting and striving for goals gives direction and purpose, making life more meaningful and fulfilling.
