I believe that goals can give me strong motivations and guide me in a right way to pursue them. My short-term goal is to

Setting goals are the most important thing you can do in your life. Without goals you are going to have no direction, no ambition to be successful, no drive to stay in school, and you would have trouble finding a career that will provide for you. When planning for success you must make good choices on the path you are going to choose. The wrong path will put you somewhere that is going to take you off track of your goals. For example, it can lead you to get lazy, partying too much and skipping school. You must stay on top of schoolwork and not fall behind. Now that you understand what a goal is, you might be wondering what the different types of goals

Goals are a part of everyday life. From gaining the strength to get out of bed in the morning to winning that blue medal around your neck, everybody has made a goal once in their life. Sometimes it can be as easy as saying you’re not going to eat that last cupcake on the platter in front of you or as hard as saying “Hello” to that special someone in your life that you find adorable, either way you have made a goal. It’s also important to remember there is short term goals and long term goals. Short term goals are easier to achieve and can be very helpful in leading up to your long term goals. We can even classify our goals into personal goals, academic goals, and professional goals, as well as others.

Goals we all have them big or small, we each have something we want to accomplish, but the big question always is, how do we accomplish it. Well for me, I have goals in life daily and longer term. Daily goals would be like finish psychology paper or make it to the gym sometime today. My more long terms goals relate specifically to my college degree, such as complete college in four years, get into a good

Goals are something that each individual should have, however, they can be short term or long term. My short term goal over the next year; I would like to

Everyone has aspirations, some tend to be more steadfast, others last only a short amount of time. A goal is something we aim for, something that we try our best to keep a firm grip on.

Our goals in life reminds us that we hold the key to elevate ourselves, to reach our full potential of success. Using that key we unlock the door to success, testimonies and motivation to those whom hold important places in our hearts. However, obstacles and trials can shift our goals in another path, which will direct us to back to the goals in question. An important goal for me was to attain my Master’s Degree in Business Administration. I challenged myself and made it a priority to ensure the goal reached full execution until in 2004, my goal detoured in another direction when I gave birth to my son.

One hundred percent of Americans have a goal which they would like to achieve, but only fifteen percent care about the actual goal while the other eighty five percent care more about the journey. Being organized, learning something, and finding out that the steps are more important the goal are many reasons why the journey can help you more than the goal.

Many times in life there are goals that we want to achieve, but an obstacle occurs and stops the opportunity to achieve the goal. A goal that has occurred in my life is winning the first place championship in NHRA Junior Drag Racing. I was unable to receive the championship due to having late reaction times, and the other competitors being able to beat me. When I had realized that I was unable to receive the championship I was disappointed, discouraged, and determined. I know that if I want the championship next year I will have to put in an effort and concentrate during the time of the race. I haven't overcome the obstacle, but I have overcome the emotions I had. I have continued to stay concentrated and keep practicing my reaction times.

A time in my life when I attempted to reach a goal was when I got my first skateboard. I had ridden one before but had never had one of my own. I tried to ride it as much as I could and get better.

When I set goals, I am determined to accomplish them to their best potential. I have been a part of the Varsity soccer team all four years. Making the team as a freshman had been a goal of mine since middle school. However, goals like this are not accomplished without hard work. I practiced a lot the summer leading up to freshmen tryouts, and I earned a spot on the team. I had reached my goal; however, I was not going to stop there. Throughout the next years my goal has been to become a better player. The work I put in sophomore and junior year is how I deserved the title of captain my senior year.

While traveling through the daily path of life, have you ever stumbled upon the victory of success? Well I have and the cost of it really pays off. There are moments when things wouldn't go my way but, from the times of me failing is the reason why I understand what was wrong and to use that knowledge to build up attainment. As a person, accomplishing greatness and showing joy is who defines me as a person and what leads me to unfold my dreams achievements.

Goals are set on a number of different levels: First you decide what you want to do and what large-scale goals you want to achieve. Second, you break these down into the smaller and smaller targets that you must hit so that you reach your lifetime goals. Finally, once you have your plan, you start working towards achieving it.

What I didn’t realize is that everyone is met with failure. After weeks of self evaluation, I finally came to this conclusion. No matter how much I tried to avoid failure, I would, at some point, be met with it repeatedly on multiple occasions. Thinking this, I stumbled upon the revelation that to fear a result that would be so prevalent in my life would be foolish. With the acceptance of failure as a more than probable outcome, I decided to attempt any activities and sports I could possibly sign up for. I was met with both acceptance and failure, but at the end of the day, I discovered more about myself that I had ever known, and learned to grow out of my shell. I realized there were some activities I was truly exceptional at, some I wasn’t so exceptional at, and some I had potential for, if I just put the work and dedication in. I found new hobbies I never knew I desired to participate in,

Michelangelo once wrote, “The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving the mark.” This quote is saying that setting your goals high and possibly failing instead of setting them low so they can be accomplished is a problem found in today’s world. People grow personally every time they fail at something in life. Successful people push themselves to be greater than their known inner-self. Setting your goals high help people to unlock their full potential physically and mentally.
