    Aim high

    Would it be correct to translate as "Хотеть большего"?

    да. это значит чтобы у тебя была выше цель.

    Actually, you can say:

    метить высоко or высоко метить

    Я вижу. Мой вариант можно использовать в любом смысле - хоть в прямом, хоть в переносном (метить в начальники, он метит на твое место - a quote from Ожегов). И он очень близок к оригиналу

    Там был императив - "Целься выше" - мне кажется кривовато. А "Желай большего" - вроде нормально.
