Why does this happen? It’s because we haven’t counted the cost. For example, you set a goal to get better grades in school this year. That’s good. But now, before you begin, count the cost. What will it need? You will have to spend more time doing your homework and less time being with your friends. You will have to stay up late sometimes. Finding more time for schoolwork might mean giving up watching TV or reading your favourite magazine. Now, having counted the cost, think of the good. What could good grades bring you? A feeling of success? A scholarship to college? A good job? Now ask yourself, “Am I willing to make the loss?” If not, then don’t do it. Don’t make any promise to yourself when you can’t finish it. A better way is to make the goal more practical. Instead of setting a goal to get grades in all your lessons, you might set a goal to get better in just two lessons. Then, next term, take another step. Counting the cost will always add a touch of needed realism (現(xiàn)實(shí)性) to your goals. 1. Why can’t we make our goal
