Who says that you can only set your goals on the first month of the year? I know this has been late, but I am still writing it anyway. But since we are almost in the middle of the year I would call it my mid year goals. I don't know exactly why I am writing this stuff, its either my mind run out of topic to share and then even though I have saved a lot of prompt topic in my saved articles but my mind is not being cooperative this time. So I guess I would just write what I have in my mind randomly. And well this afternoon as I was talking to my husband, he was again complaining about the crazy schedule he had at work. The capacity of their ships is almost 100% that means they have a lot of guests unfortunately the crew aren't enough. They lack manpower that is why they had to double their work in order to accommodate the guests but they ended up tired and exhausted. Of course I have to comfort him in the midst of his rants about their unhuman schedule (as what he prefer to it) at work. I have to remind him that he should always focus on the things we wanted to achieve why he was there for work. I always have to remind him focus on the goal.

Speaking of goals which I am talking about earlier, I actually have 3 goals that I wanted to achieve this year.

To take a special course (CPE)

This has been my planned for a very long time already, unfortunately for some reasons I still can't push it. If you are asking what it is, CPE stands for Certificate for Professional Education. I am planning to take a LET examination after I take this course. This is a special course for those who are graduate of any 4 year course (except for education graduate) who wants to take up the teacher licensure exam and teach in the future. I have a co parent before at my son's former school who took this special course and after finishing it, she took the licensure exam and is now a teacher. We're supposed to take the same course together but because my youngest was just 4 years old that time I couldn't join her. Around 2018, I inquired at the nearest campus regarding that special course but then, they advise me to go to main campus which is on the other side of our city so again I missed the chance. Then pandemic happened. It was harder for me to inquire for it since I am saving our money for more important matters. This year though, I am hoping I could push through my plan and I hope there's no more alibi. I should achieve my goals no matter what. I hope my lazy self won't take over me.

To have a better sales than last year

I know some of you already knew about my little business about my handmade felt craft. So during the last quarter of the year, I am very much busy because I usually sell christmas felt ornaments. This year is gonna be the 3rd year I am selling it and I hope to get more sales so that I can save money for our special project. If you can recall from my previous post, I already bought some of the materials needed for my handmade crafts. I already started making some and that is one of the reason why sometimes I am inactive in this platform and can't interact. In order to get more sales, I should start making stocks as soon as possible. Since it is handmade I usually spent a lot of effort to make it presentable so that more buyers would be encourage to buy. My goal is to at least make 3000 pieces or more than that before the peak orders came. I wish I could make it.

To be physically fit

This is the challenging goal I have for this year. It is easy to say but it is so hard to accomplish. For the last two months that my husband went on vacation, I gain more than 2 kilos. I expected it since during his stay, we almost spend our time food tripping like we always do. The problem is that as we get older our metabolism get slower, so that could be the reason that I gain weight and well food is life. Who can ever resist it? Right now I am trying to lessen my rice intake and da*n it is so hard. Hahaha! My goal is to get rid of the 2 kilograms that I gain. Can I really do it? I hope so. I also tried some exercises that I did back in 2017 when I had successfully lose weight. Proper discipline and eyes on the goal is the key to achieve it.

Closing Thoughts

Achieving goals is hard and it takes a lot of determination to make it happen. Focus and proper discipline is what I need so that I can be successful in completing it. I still have few months and I am willingly to try the best effort I can do so that I can truly accomplish these goals. Before I end this article I would leave a nice quote about achieving goals.
