IMPORTANCE OF SETTING GOALS

Chaudhury Satya Das, Editor, Education & Awareness

 

Dear Children,

Setting goals is the most important thing you can do in your life. Without goals, you are going to have no direction, no ambition to be successful and  no drive to stay in school. Without these three things, achieving your goals is going to be one of the toughest tasks in the years to come. Life is a long journey and to make this journey meaningful, enjoyable and successful,  you should take your steps properly and systematically. Once started in right track, the momentum will gather and things will start moving on their own.

Nice guys, while setting direction to success, you must make good choices on the path you are going to choose. The wrong path will put you somewhere that is going to take you off track from your goals. Walking on this path will disturb you, make you lazy and  pull you downwards. You must follow the right path that makes you sincere, enthusiastic and energetic to explore knowledge and excel in school.  Hence, in order to be crowned with success, you must be a traveller of the right path.

Friends, having ambition to be successful is the key in getting what you want in life. Ambitions of getting a great job, a  great name  and any other thing that will make your life more enjoyable is all do to setting goals. Setting goals inspires  to work hard,  to stay firm with iron will and to face all challenges for achieving greater success.  Hence, display courage, confidence and boldness because fortune favours the brave.  Be innovative, grab the opportunities and make the best use of your time and energy. Keep your eyes, ears and above all, your mind open. Be observant in your class and listen your teachers with interest. Be enthusiastic, energetic and positive and make friendship with right children. Plan, reappraise and evaluate your progress at regular intervals, so that you can make the best or optimum use of your energy and resources. Be a child of  noble character and always speak the truth.  Pray God, the Almighty, as without his blessings nothing is possible.
