One word covers both the abstract purpose and the physical thing you aim at, which is tidier than English managing it with goal, aim, purpose and target. The verb is transitive and means to aim at, so you with no preposition. Do not build clumsy scaffolding like when a simple plus an infinitive says it better: beats the version in the fifth example above for everyday use, and the noun version is what you want when the purpose itself is the topic.
