It doesn’t matter whether or not you have some personal goal to adhere to it. Think of all of the other moral structures you don’t agree with and have no intent to pursue as goals.
That doesn’t make them “not a moral structure”.
No the term moral has no real meaning, absent of some moral aim or goal, regardless of whether that goal is objective or subjectively derived.
If you think you can have a moral structure absent of this, please give an example absent of this element, and please indicate what calling it moral adds to the description of the structure, as opposed to a description of the structure without using the term?

People are the only creatures we know of who have ever opined on the subject of truth as well. Yet the world isn’t round because of human opinions.
