If you are like me, us teenagers might not care about creating goals that will help our futures. Although this is not something as interesting as going on the Internet or playing video games, goals will impact us in the future. When thinking about starting a goal you have to keep several things in mind and my guild lines will help you do just that. Start thinking, make sure your goal is reasonable, make sure it can be done within a certain time span, make it relatable to you and not just a random thing, and write it down. Though these are common and basic guidelines they are key important things to think about. If you neglect any of my guidelines I can assure you your goal will not go according to plan and something will go wrong along the way. The reason for this is because you have not clearly thought about what might occur along the way that might be a block in the way to your goal. If you use my goal setting guidelines to create your goal then you will have a greater rate of success considering my guidelines cover the main parts needed to create goals. Starting a goal is completely different from achieving it, this is just the beginning step to your grand prize. So make sure you do the last step and write it down somewhere so that you can remind yourself that this is what you truly and deeply want to achieve.
