With Your Brain...
You can set your goals. Think about what you want to do, and then decide on a way to reach your goal.
Instead of following the wishes of others, you can make your own decisions. Using our brain to think about what we really want.
With Your feet...
Once we have a goal, we have many ways to achieve it. In this case, which one should we choose?
Just like when we decide our goal, with our own feet, we walk by ourselves so that we should not be influenced by others. We have our own feet, as they are controlled by us, we can walk in the way we like.
Steer yourself any direction you choose...
In the end, the most important thing for us is to "move in the direction we choose". While we may change our minds or try things out for different reasons, we still need to keep our ideas in check.
What can we do when chasing a goal?
Set a list of what we want to learn
Decide what we should learn for our goals. Make a schedule for them and prepare for the future! The path to our goals is built from a variety of knowledge and skills. Make a plan for what we want to learn and then get started.
Record what you did
After having a goal, you can bring a notebook with you all the time, mark time all your ideas and action. Finetune the mission and goal all the time. It also help you to follow your schedule, to control the working efficiency.
Analyze your goals
Use different methods to analyze your goals, such as the SMART criteria. Only when you understand your goal in depth can you develop a plan for it.
