Three Important Goals
Since I’m going into my teen years, I want to set some goals for myself to make my life thrive and have a better purpose. My first goal is to exercise and become a better lacrosse player then I am now. My second goal is to get into a good business school. Lastly, is that I want to be a better friend and be there to support my friends. The way I will survive and thrive in my teen years is always look at the income that will happen when I am going through periods of struggle. For example, if I don’t want to study, I will just say to myself think about what will happen in the future when I get good grades and become successful so instead of saying it doesn’t matter. Also, I will push myself to accomplish what I want.
Three goals I set is to become a better lacrosse player, my second goal is to get into a good college, and my third goal is to become a better friend. My first goal I will achieve this by exercising and getting stronger. For my second goal I will get good grades and push myself to the max and won’t stop until I accomplish my goal. For my third goal I will build a stronger relationship with my friends.
Some roadblocks I might get are I might get lazy and not want to exercise. I will overcome this by motivating myself and keeping myself in a strict schedule. My second roadblock is I would tell myself to keep going and think about what the benefit of getting good grades will. My third goal I can see a roadblock of not building a better relationship with my friends and not being there because of conflict I can overcome this by planning and making plans to hang out later.
My attitude towards these three goals is determination. I will ensure that I keep a positive outlook towards these goals. I will tell myself the reason I’m doing this is so that I have a better life and make my future better. I will also say this would be for my family in the future because I will need to provide for them. Also, I want to be a better friend because that will also help me in life because everywhere you go you will always be making new friends and meet new people.
I think it’s a good idea to set these three goals because most of them won’t just benefit me in the moment but will benefit me through my whole life. These three goals might give me a major boost in society and help me live life to the fullest and let me enjoy it. When I grow older and have a family of my own just these three goals can set a path for me to follow and help me in the long run.
