(The pursuit of) Happiness
The pursuit of happiness is a straightforward life goal that goes back to Aristotle and the United States' Declaration of Independence.
Religious (or non rational) life goals
Life goals can in some cases transcend the personal. These goals differ from non-religious life goals in that they transcend the ego.
