GOAL

Ensuring your ambition and aim both for short term periods, as well as synchronizing it with the long term periods e.g. working towards changing our job profile to ensure that you pick up the right skill sets and your potential is recognized so as to meet you aims and move towards your ambition.

PURPOSE

This can be termed as an essential need of an individual, which gives a meaning to his/her actions. There is always a purpose behind all goals.


From a career perspective, this can further aid your understanding: http://www.jarushub.com/should-you-include-this-in-your-cv/
