Life Goals...Yearly Goals...Whatever really...

This post is basically a follow up from the “Resolutions” one. Resolutions are in my opinion, just tasks we set ourselves for the New Year where as, goals are much greater! Goals are something of which you aspire to for as long as it takes to complete them… That’s what they are to me anyway. They are there to inspire me.
Some of my life goals… Number one has to be, to become fluent in French as from the age of 3 when I first visited France with my family when I apparently said, “when I’m older I want a café in France” … I can’t remember this but it’s something that is glued to every single feeling that runs through my body. It’s a struggle… learning another language, even though I’ve been to France every single year since the age of 3 (except last year!!! But we did have French girls to stay with us!!!) I still battle with coming to grips with some of the basics. But the point is I battle and will continue battling until I win! I’ve thought about giving it up but then something seems to yank at my heart, a feeling of regret and disappointment, I don’t see how I can give it up when those kinds of feelings become apparent whenever these thoughts make their way into my head. I’ve had my confidence knocked horribly whilst doing my French also, as last year whilst on holiday I got my exam results… read over the phone to me… to hear that I got a D(!!) in it. Well I got back to school and didn’t, to be quite frank, feel as though I was able to do this year. However, I really feel as though through HK and me sorting my own head out and organising my time better I’m on my way to better results this summer… well, I hope so at least! Now I truly hope that I haven’t just jinxed myself!
Number two of my life goals… to become a Health Kinesiologist or quite simply just someone who can be there for people helping day in and day out. I don’t know when I will do this, maybe when I’m a lot older or maybe after University, I’m unsure but I know it’s something I will do in my life, and that’s a promise I’ve made to myself. I feel as though being able to help someone in their life, or even to make someone smile when they can’t remember the last they did so is one of THE most humbling qualities a person could ever have!
My main problem is when it comes to goals is that there are so many things I would like to do and try in my life! Like… I would absolutely love going to Paris and training as a florist or being a true “Vianne Rocher” and working in a chocolaterie! I would like to have a go at writing, having my own business, Aromatherapy, being a masseuse… the list goes on I tell you!!! So I think my goal would be to try everything I possibly can. I think a Groucho Marx quote is rather appropriate right now:

“I'm going to live forever...or die trying!”

As well as life goals, I’ve set myself some goals this year; to pass my A Levels feeling proud of myself and meaning that I get into the University I want, start a full time job in the summer, read my HK, Crystal Healing and Aromatherapy books cover to cover and to start playing the guitar again.

My main goal of the year… to keep a smile on my face.
