a goal not written down is only a wish.

it is good to have goals. something to work towards. my sister just made a goal to not buy any shoes for four months. on january first the whole world makes goals to better themselves. a new school year is a time for goals. goals help you to have something that you are working for so that you can become a better person. there are long term goals and short term goals. people make goals to exercise, to quit smoking, to get straight As. a lot of times the goals we make are forgotten or given up on. a goal not written down is only a wish.

i am setting a goal. i am not very good at taking criticism. i want to be right. all the time. that needs to change. i shouldn't take advice and criticism so seriously. if someone tells me that i'm doing something wrong, i should honestly take that criticism and use it to become better. i shouldn't be so defensive. sometimes i need to admit that i'm wrong. that is my goal.
