Goals and Ambitions

My Goals and Ambitions

 What is it?

Before talking about my own goals and ambitions, we need to understand what are goal and ambition. Goal is an idea about the future or desired result that a person and or group envision and committed to achieve while ambition is a strong desire to achieve something. Now, they're quite different goal is basically the target and ambition is the desire to achieve that target. 

For Me

For me, goals and ambitions are something that are quite in the realm of imagination. The process of you achieving said goals and ambitions are what we called life. So in the end, by going through life we can achieve our wildest imagination.

My Own

I'm 17 years old, there're two meanings about that statement. I am young and have a lot more to discover and I am old enough to actually start being serious on discovering things. To make it clear, by reaching a certain point in life (age) it's actually a checkpoint like in video games. That checkpoint allowed you to make some interesting choices that will obviously effects the rest of the game (life). Now, it's sort of my checkpoint. Where I'll make those choices. My ultimate goal is pretty clichΓ©, to be a useful in life (a bit of a nod to Catherine Parr's motto). Also yeah, making my parents proud and happy, 'cause they're good parents. To be honest, it went pretty deep. There're short-term goals and long-term goals, I did mention my ultimate goal (a bit corny tbh) but my goals in life is not just that. I want to study abroad, I want to study International Relations and marketing (this one not sure), I want to ace the Sundanese tomorrow (this one obviously short-term), and I want to finish my assignments (also short-term). The fact that I have lots of goals whether it's short or long-term, says a lot about myself *chuckling. I am very planned oriented human being, as in I'll plan anything that involved myself even in day-to-day activity. But, there're flaws on being planned-oriented.

Concerns

What if I failed? Yeah even just planning the goals, the ways, and even just daydreaming about it, me being a realistic somewhat pessimistic always think the worst. The worst and the best outcome. Nowadays, it doesn't really bother me, I'm focusing on the short-term goals while also building up for eventually long-term. Baby steps y'know.

How

As I wrote above, the 'How' is that. Baby steps. From the simplest or the easiest or the closest goals could lead up to bigger and more complicated one. Started from the bottom and now we're here. So yeah just focus on things that are matters first and go from there.

Conclusion

Goals and ambitions are what make us in a sense alive. We're motivated waking up in the morning to achieve those goals, we feel ambitious while reaching out for our goal. Don't burn yourself out thought, I learned it the hard way. Have time to rest and have time to progress.
