When I was just a kid my mom used to tell me all sort of stuffs like study hard, before you do something think about it first, don’t waste your time with unnecessary things. I couldn’t understand her point. But now that im 20, thinking about it again makes me realize that she was teaching me how to set my goals and priorities and for that i really am thankful, because if it hadn’t been for her I wouldn’t be able to learn how to set my goals and be successful in life. Goal setting is an effective way to be systematic and to avoid wasting time and also to be efficient in everything you do in your life. When you have a goal every decision you make will affect your life I am proud to say that at an early age I learned how to prioritize and to set my goals which allowed and helped me to obtain a successful life!
