* ''Manga/SangatsuNoLion'' plays with this concept immensely. In his back-story, Rei pushed himself hard in order to become a professional shogi player as early as possible. He succeeded by the time of the actual start of the story, and because of this, most believe he's already had his goal in life set and achieved since he was young. However, flashback chapters reveal ulterior motives in forcing himself to make such a significant lifestyle decision, and there are a few claims in both the narrative and dialogue that he does not even like the game itself as much as he probably should, despite his skills and scenes suggesting otherwise. His ambiguous feelings for the very game he's trying to build a livelihood on is one of the main focuses, leaving to question whether or not Rei has unconsciously developed, or will develop, a liking and sincere life goal in the game on his own terms despite his rather dubious initial intentions.

* [[TheCasanova Graz'zt]] of ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' fame has, [[MagnificentBastard understandably]], countless goals in his immortal, infernal life. His true GoalInLife drives all other goals and all other plans, including his eternal war against [[DemonLordsAndArchdevils Demogorgon and Orcus]] for the role of Prince of Demons and his [[HellOnEarth plan to absorb a Material Plane world into the Abyss]]. This goal is to unite all the Lower Planes (not just the Abyss) to create a near-impossible army of fiends that he would lead to [[RageAgainstTheHeavens tear down the Upper Planes into multiversal dust in the most glorious blood bath ever to grace reality]]. Which is quite {{Badass}}, if you think about it.

Someone who forgets his GoalInLife has suffered MotiveDecay. The MotivationIndex has a few life long goals that a person's GoalInLife may be expressed through, although not all would qualify, especially if it's not specific enough or too short term. See the related SeriesGoal for the goal of the work in question, instead of an individual character's goal. DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife is for those whose GoalInLife is to ''find'' a GoalInLife.
