IT’S YOUR FUTURE

Do you have a plan for your school year?
Set goals for your education. What is your learning goal for this year?
Learning goals are based around learning skills, concepts or or attempting mastery an area of learning. Do you have a learning goal for each
of your classes?
Do you have a plan for your life? Create a plan and more importantly,
take action on that plan. Who are you becoming? What profession, career industry are you headed towards? What type of How many people
do you know who talk a good game about all the things they are going to do? Then later on you find out that same person who did all the
“talking” about doing something, in fact ended up doing nothing. You
do not want to be the person that is just a good talker. You want to be
a person of action.
Good, hard work brings profit, while just talking leads to being broke.
In other words, don't just talk about it be about it. Your plan needs
someone to put some legs to it.
Write your plan. Once you have written out a plan, go and find a person
to hold you accountable to make sure the plan is put into action.
My friend Richard is my weekly accountability friend. He is the person I check in with and he checks to see if I accomplished the goals I
stated I would finish in the previous week. Without having someone
in my life to push me, it would be easy to back out of completing my
plan. You need a person (I suggest a parent or mentor or someone you
know is reliable) to hold your feet to the fire so that you get to work
on your plan.
