Goal Setting: My Goals for this Year - Year 9

Last year, at the end of last year; I have achieved goals that have set at the beginning of that year. Since then wanted and craved for more goals to set; in the beginning weeks of this term, we were tasked with setting our goals towards now being a year 10. The goals that I've set were not only academic or at school but also my personal goal that I want to subjugate by the end of the year. Starting with my academic goals; I've set myself in trying the best that I can to get the "General Excellence" award, trophies-- Junior Chess Champion--. Not only, yet also being able to seize and be able to be the first in my subjects; as well as surpassing my standards and aiming higher for the following year.
Relating to my academic goals, I also have my work-ons, goals that I need to have achieved before being a year 10. Which are:

• I am an outstander - I choose to help others who are having a difficult time.

• I feel confident sharing my work

• I can set goals, self-assess and make learning connections.

• I can think outside the square

• I communicate thoughts and ideas so that others can understand.

On a different topic, as mentioned I also have my personal goals; one of my bigger personal goals is being able to master calculus, quantum physics and relativity. I have long been interested in those topics; I have been fascinated and have questioned myself about those ideas. Not only that but I also want to learn more about psychology--purposeful--when it comes to working with other people. I have started a move towards psychology and have discovered what called the "Troxler Effect" a sometimes scary "brain glitch" that explains why we sometimes "see" on the sides of our eyes; why when we stare at our selves for several periods of time we start to perceive "monsters"...

 

Being better at my hobbies per se is another goal that I have; chess, arts, literature, music and even politics. But ultimately the goal that I would love to achieve again this year is being happier, thinking optimistically and being more positive than I already am.
