I like your tempered view of goal-setting that locates it as one of the ways to ensure we are faithful in stewarding our time/life.
I've taken the Jack Sparrow view of goal setting for a while: They are more like guidelines. So my goals show the direction I want to go, and guide me toward how to best spend my time. Having said that, I rarely accomplish all of my yearly goals because things change over the course of a year. Yet, I almost always make progress in those directions.
