Making And Reaching Goals
目標設定と達成

Everyone has experienced tough times at some point in their life. Maybe you have had family or work problems. Everyone copes with these situations in different ways. When I’m feeling low or upset I usually speak to my friends.

Someone once said that “To find a friend is to find a treasure.” and I think this is true. Talking to a friend about your problems always helps. Your friends can give you good advice and support you when you need it. Some day you can return the favour when your friend needs help. You can always talk to a relative too. Maybe an aunt, uncle or grandparent. Older relatives have a lot of life experience and are sometimes very wise.

Another thing I do to cheer myself up is to listen to my favourite music and spend time alone thinking. Some of the best places to think about your life are beaches, mountains and forests. I sometimes walk for hours listening to music and thinking about the past and the future. Also, one of the best things you can do is to go on holiday, it’s really the best medicine.
