When a goal is deemed to be unattainable, people typically try to find some feasible substitute for it. When the goal is viewed as irreplaceable as well as definitely unattainable, it is typically given up. However, some goals are perceived as irrevocable, even though they are believed to be irreplaceable and definitely unattainable. We will try to understand why one is unable to give up a goal while believing it is impossible to bring about the desired state of affairs. Once outlined a few basic assumptions underlying our approach, we will first address the phenomenon of goal replacement, and we will distinguish three kinds of goal replacement: by equivalence, by surrogation, and by compensation. Then we will focus on irrevocable goals, trying to identify their qualifying features, psychological implications, and underlying motivations. Finally we will address the question of the possible functions of such goal fixation, despite its apparent maladaptive consequences.
