Why is this important for the good life? Confusing goal with motive can make you rigid and goal-dependent. Wise people are aware of their motives; they change their goals when they realize that another goal would satisfy their motives better or more easily. What was a good goal a while ago may become a bad choice when the situation changes. Surely, consistency is good because it is necessary to achieve a goal. Nevertheless, being too rigid about goals can be detrimental: A goal is only a means to an end. Do not confuse the how with the why.
Regularly reassessing your decisions and strategies, alone or with people you trust, can be enlightening: What are my motives? Are my current goals the best way to satisfy them? The answer will depend on many things, but the questions are worth asking on a regular basis, especially when it turns out that reaching your current goal is problematic.
