Look at this picture. What is this man's goal?
That's right! To become a mascular man in the poster!
If this scrawny or skinny man wants to become the mascular man in the poster, what must he do?
Look at what he is thinking! (in the thought bubble)
Yes, he is thinking he has to eat more vitamin pills, go to Gym to exercise, lift 50kg of weights and eat the correct food.
These actions are what he has to do to achieve or win his goal.

It is just like your goal is to reach the top of this ladder so that you can see what is over the wall. What must you do? Yes, climb each step of the ladder until you reach the top! Will you stop half-way if you are tired, lazy or distracted by things around you?

What is a Goal?
You set a Goal whenever you say, "I want to..." Your Goal might be that you want to get a pet dog. Or that you want to learn to dance - or to play football well. Or your goal might be to get better grades at school.
Why are Goals important?
When you have a Goal, it makes you feel full of energy. Having a Goal makes you feel good about yourself and about everybody else. It makes life much more FUN!!!
When is a Goal a good Goal?
It's always good to have a Goal. But there are ways to make Goal-setting even more fun!
Here is a list of four things that make a good Goal:
1) A good Goal says EXACTLY what you want.
For instance, you might say, "I want a pet." That's not a very exact Goal, is it?
If you said, "I want a pet DOG," that would be a good Goal.
But suppose you said "I want a dog, that will be a little bit smaller than me, it will be brown and black, it will have big pointy ears, and a nice long tail," then that would be an EXCELLENT Goal, because you are saying EXACTLY what you want.
2) A good Goal says WHEN you want it.
If your goal is "I want to get good grades at school," to make it a good Goal, you would say something like: "I want to get grades that are one grade higher than the ones I got in my last report card.
And I want to get these grades by the time I get my next report card."
That way, you're saying EXACTLY what you want, AND you're saying EXACTLY WHEN you want it!
3) A good Goal is when you believe it.
If you said, "I want to learn to fly like a bird," that's not a good Goal, because you can't believe it, because you know you haven't got wings!
But if you say, "I want to learn to hang-glide (or swim) next year," then that's a good Goal, because you know that it is possible, so you can believe in it!
4) A good Goal says HOW you're going to get it.
To have a good Goal, you need to make a PLAN. This is great fun!
The plan will be different for every Goal, because every Goal is special.
