Goals

I think it is imperative that we all have goals, short term ones and long term ones. I have many goals, all pretty well aimed at one huge goal. I have already started to accomplish some of the smaller goals. It makes me feel good, knowing it is pushing me in the direction I want to go.

I used to think that I would never be able to learn another language but now, I know that I can and I will. Since I want to take a trip to Europe in a few years, I certainly want to know enough of the language before I go, so that I can speak to people there. It's kind of exciting to plan this trip, I am hoping to go for at least 10-14 days. There is a ton of research for me to do and saving money of course;)

I just needed to believe that anything is possible and it is, anything and everything. I know that when I ask and believe, then I will receive. It cannot be denied, no matter what it is, it will be mine.

Next week, I am starting the exercise part. I have a plan and someone to walk with until I get comfortable with exercising again, then I can do more each day. I am going to build myself up, so that I can actually do a small run. I would love to be able to do a long distance run someday but for now I will take a short one like a 5K. I am almost giddy with excitement because I know that I am getting closer to my ultimate goal one step at a time. There is nothing anyone can do to dampen my spirits. Many people try but I am not letting them decide for me any longer, which is another goal of mine. I want to make all my own decisions and I don't really even want the comments.;)

I will just take each day as it comes and be blessed for that and all that I have, I live in abundance (one of my goals).

Being tenacious

I am a very tenacious person, when someone tells me I cannot do something, I find a way and I show them I can. When I put my mind to something, I give it my all. If I know something is right in my heart, I never give up. If one thing does not work for me to accomplish or gain my goals, I try other things until I find something that works.

I may look and feel like I am defeated but in my heart, I am just planning another way to get around the first failure. Long term failure is NOT an option, not to say things don't go wrong but that doesn't mean I let them ruin my goals.

It always surprises me when other people give in so easily. I remember when my oldest daughter was in grade 9 and the principal told her and three of her friends that not one of them would amount to anything, in fact he thought they would all end up pregnant and on welfare. Thankfully he was wrong on all accounts, especially about my daughter. But, when this was told to her, my daughter skipped so many high school classes and then finally dropped out of high school. If this had been me, I would have went to school every day, been early, completed every assignment and passed with flying colors, just so I could go back to that principal and wave my diploma in in face and say you were WRONG about me. That is just the kind of person I am, I would have dug right in and given it my all.

I think this is why I have such a difficult time giving up one of my main goals, something keeps drawing me back, no matter how hard I try to move on. I am just meant to have that goal no matter what anyone thinks. I know the truth.... one day. everyone will knowღ ♥ღ ♥
