How can you create short-term goals that you take week by week to reach your long-term goal?
What might get in the way of your reaching this goal? You may already know that things like time, money, or emotions could get in the way. How might you get around these things?
Who can help you meet your goals? Maybe friends, family, or a support group? And how will you reward yourself? A movie, a special meal, an hour to yourself can be a treat.
