Setting and Achieving Goals

Posted by skoenig on June 15, 2009




Today I told our class a story about me.  When I was in high school I learned how to play the flute.  I was not a natural talent, however I persisted and become better over the years.  When I was in Year Eleven I was asked to play a solo on the Piccolo in a competition in Melbourne.  I was very nervous and scared that I would make a big mistake and let down the whole band.  However I practiced really hard and believed in myself and in the end the performance was great.  I even bought a CD of it, so I have a copy of my piccolo solo to keep forever.  Today I let my class listen to it.  My goal at the time was to practice and complete a good performance.  I did it. 

What are your goals for the rest of this year and how will you achieve them?  Leave a comment.

    My goal is to be a good netballer because I love netball and I want to be better at it. Every night I practice shooting with my sister and play bounce. My nextdoor-neighbour is in my team so sometimes she comes over and sometimes I go there. On Thursdays we have netball training and we learn lots there.
