From a modern perspective you would be better off with challenging attainable goals rather than unattainable ones. It makes more sense in terms of commitment.

See Challenging Goals
In a sense you could say that all goals are unattainable because the instant you have reached it, it ceases to be a goal any more. Training is about constantly updating your goals, knowing that you never actually arrive.
