  You are correct in saying that these are synonyms, but we do use them in difference ways.
  A goal is an end or a result toward which an effort is directed. It is what you want to accomplish. It answers what you want to do.
  Our goal is to get more low-income voters to participate in our general elections.
  My goal this year is to get a better English vocabulary.
  An aim is the reason, purpose or intent in doing something. It emphasizes why you want to do something.
  Our aim in getting more low-income voters to vote is so they will be better represented.
  My aim in getting a better English vocabulary is to communicate better.
  A target specifies who or what receives the effort you exert. Or it specifically narrows down what you want to achieve.
  Our target in our voting campaign is the low-income voters.
  My target in getting a better English vocabulary this year is to learn 300 new words.
  
  So in the sentence, “If one wants to achieve his target, one should work hard”, I would use “If one wants to achieve his goal, one should work hard”,
