Question

【題目】 Why is setting goals(目標(biāo)) important? Because goals can help you do and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.

Successful people in life imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals. 【1】 It’s like having a sign to show you where you want to go. Think of it in this way. There are two drivers, one has a place to go to clearly in mind which can be found on a map. He can drive straight there surely without any wasted time.

The other driver has no goal, or a map. 【2】 But he drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere. Just using up oil. Which driver do you want to be?

【3】 They decide what they want in life and then get there by setting goals and making plans. Unsuccessful people usually just let life happen by accident. Goals aren’t difficult to set and they aren’t difficult to reach. 【4】 You are the person who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life.

Research, tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it.

【5】 They are harder to forget. Also when you write your goals in your own way, you are able to make yourself realize situations that will bring you nearer to your goal.
