Jessie lived in the country, but one year she decided to visit the capital city to do some shopping and to see the sights. She stayed at a hotel near the central market. She had seldom been to the city before, and was very excited about what she would find. On the first morning of her visit, as she

walked from the hotel to the market, she passed a beggar.
He was holding up a notice which said, “Blind from birth. Please give generously.”
Jessie felt sorry for the blind beggar and she bent down and put a dollar coin into his bowl. “Thank you,” he said.
On the third day, however, Jessie did not have a dollar coin. She had only fifty cents, so she dropped this into the beggar's bowl.
“What have I done wrong?” the beggar said, “Why are you so stingy (吝啬) today?” Jessie was very surprised by what the beggar said.
“How do you know I haven't given you a dollar?” she said “If you are blind,you can't know what coin I put into your bowl.”
“Ah,” explained the beggar,“ the truth is I'm not blind. I'm just looking after this place for the regular beggar while he's on holiday.”
“On holiday!” Jessie exclaimed. “And what exactly does your blind friend do on holiday?” “He goes into the country,” the man said, “and takes photographs. He's a very good photographer.”

There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.
Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no

stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase. Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.
