Turning Negativity Into Positive Goals and Reality pt. 2

In my last blog entry I talked about "what do I want"..today I want to talk about Goals.

It's easy to set goals, but sometimes its difficult to reach those goals, and sometimes it is because we set our goals way too high, or unrealistic goals. I once had someone tell me there is no such thing as unrealistic goals.  If we set our goals too high, trying to reach those goals may be so overwhelming that we simply give up. In setting goals, there will always be set backs, but we have to learn from those setbacks, and we have to continue to strive. When we set realistic goals, or small goals, we can measure how far we have come, or how close we are to achieving them.

In my previous entry, I talked about what I wanted..I guess in a way those could be goals. I want a job, I want someone to love me for me, and me love them, to find true unadulterated love, etc. but in all honesty those are not really goals, those are just what i want from life. To get the things I want, I need to have goals.

In this new journey I am taking in life, I have learned the value of goals. I have set a goal to find a job. Each day I get up in the mornings, dress nicely and apply my make up and set out for a job. I fill out applications online. I  search endlessly. I strive, I push, each and every day, to find a job..I push toward that goal, and I wont stop till I have a job.

You see, for each thing I want..I have to set goals to get them.

Finding a job was suppose to be just a small goal. However, it is starting to turn into a major goal.

MY GOALS:
1. Find a job
2. Lose weight
3. Remove negativity from my life

I think with these 3 simple goals, achieving these goals, I can find and grasp all "my wants" from the previous blog. I can be on my way to finding some sense of peace and self worth inside of me.

And I would like to add one small thing:
To get serious in my photography again. When I was serious and so passionate about it, nothing stopped me from snapping, and focusing on the perfect shot. It helped me when I was down and depressed and became very therapeutic.

I am a flower, opening, starting to bloom, but I am not near full bloom YET!
