A principle to be aimed at (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ideal

'a principle to be aimed at' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ideal that I've seen before include "Perfectly suited" , "Dream" , "Optimum" , "Perfect but perhaps unlikely to become reality" , "Embodying perfection" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
