There are few people who draw up life goals. Most people want to take one step at a time, and are frightened when they .have to set life goals. 31.
They can't be more wrong. Life goals are only a road map. They record what you want to be at the end of your life. 32 Others may want to be known as great builders or great sportspeople. In fact, there is no end to what you may want to be.
However, the only way you can achieve your dream is by writing down your goal. Once you have done that, you need to break this goal into several small goals. While writing the small goals, you must provide for change. 33 If you want to achieve your goals, you should be prepared to change them from time to time. This makes your goals really up-to-date.
Also, there cannot be just one life goal. There are at least five subjects that you need to address. These are: education, career(职业), family, health and money.34 For example, there can .be no career goals unless they are backed by education goals. Similarly, there can be no family goals unless they are based on practical financial(金融的) goals.
None of these goals is taught in college. Yes, there are some families that try to train their kids to think wisely, and plan for their life. 35 They know what they want to get in life, They are also mentally prepared for most of the difficulties they expect to meet on the way. A. These are happy families.
B. Good health helps you to realize your goals,
C. Nothing remains unchanged in this world.
D. Many people do not know how to set life goals.
E. to them, life is too big to be reduced to a few goals. F. You will find that all these goals are related. G. Some may want to be known as great scientists.
