goals
Understanding your goals to help you achieve them.
Level Up
It's time to LEVEL UP! In life you constantly move up and grow. There is no one that just stays at one grade in school. Everyone grows. Once you achieve one thing, you don't keep repeating that stage. The best thing to do is to move up to the next level and work towards achieving what that level has in store for you.

Is It Okay to Want More Out of Life?
"I want more," he said."Don’t be ungrateful," his parents reply. If you recognise the conversation above, you understand what it’s like to have everything you have ever wanted and want more. The simple act of wanting more creates a form of guilt in so many of us—how can we be so ungrateful to ask for more? The world is handed to each of us away from war, famine, suffering in general—for those of us lucky enough to have been born in to the so called "first world." The blessings that we have been given are ridden with something toxic. The toxicity that comes from it forces us to push our desires in to the very core of ourselves—to hide them away. Our desires and our passions often mean that we want more than what we have, so locking them away makes us not sound ungrateful and stops us from sounding like the brats that our parents warned us we would become, but at what cost?

Perseverance vs. Determination
What's the difference? Obviously, consistent and temporary are complete opposite terms. But, what's the difference between perseverance and determination? In technical terms, perseverance is considered "steadfastness in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success," and determination is considered "firm or fixed intention."

Reach Your Goals
Every day I live by the list method in order to complete my goals both daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly. Without a list I wouldn’t know what to do with myself but then feel regret and disappointment in myself because I forgot to get something done.

Things You Should Do in Your 20s
Your 20s can be some really weird years. They're the years where you're trying to learn how to be an adult, but you don't quite know how to be an adult yet. It can be very easy to get caught up in trying to get your entire future figured out that you stop being you, and you stop trying to better yourself. Try doing a handful of these things while you're still in your 20s to remember that you're still human, and it's okay to have fun!

How to Be a PolyInnovator
Now this is more of a mix of me telling you how to become one, and me telling myself as well. Meaning I am still not there, this is an outline of sorts, a rough draft, a business plan, or some sort of synergy in between.

Distracted
He has been talking about distraction. What is a distraction? Is someone blowing horns around him? Is someone tapping their foot against his desk? Maybe he’s doing that annoying leg jiggling thing. Am I a distraction? Do I have distractions? When was the last time I’d written something and not edited everything I was thinking. Even just then, I had to make myself resurface a thought, so that I wrote it and didn’t ignore it.

A Do-Over
Imagine you find a cute little container in a thrift or antique shop, it’s got a little smudge on the side of it, so you buff it out with the hem of your shirt, and suddenly the world around you stops and stands stills. A big puff of purple smoke pops out, and a strange Robin Williams looking dude with gold bands around his hands offers you one chance at a do over. What would you do-over? Which single decision would you change?

Conquering My Fears 2
It all started when I was 8-years-old. My school district was holding a writing contest where one person from each school would be chosen to have their story published and to go in front of all the district leaders. I was the student chosen from my school. The story was about a talking dog named Spot. At eight, you can imagine it was not the best piece of writing in the world but it gave me the writing bug and for the next ten years I wrote and wrote and got straight A's on almost every paper and essay I turned in. I was even accepted to a journalism program at the local college and planned to travel the world.

Everyone at one point in their life, will be faced with a task that seems insurmountable. Whether it be graduating college, separating two flat pieces of a lego, or even bathing an evil, water-hating cat; for any problem though , there is almost always the same set of solutions. You have to have a plan of action, have the right tools, practice if you need to, and if you still can’t do it, try again.
