Setting goals

Hello world!

Today is a beautiful, sunny, and terribly cold day in the big city. However, my mood is as high as the temperature is low. The reason I'm being a little philosophical is because I've been writing school papers and when you study literature, it tends to follow you outside the classrooms.
I've been doing very good lately, and the key to it was to take action in my own hands. I'm still trying to figure things out, but it feels very nice to have something to do and goals to focus on.
GOALS. A word that took a huge meaning for me lately. I'm not talking about long term projects here, but steps to accomplish one by one in order to get satisfaction and results. When in doubt about what you're doing, consider it as an assignment you gave yourself. It may not be your dream job or subject, but you'll get a reward out of it in the end.
I also decided to start running, and definitely caught the virus. I love it. I want to train for a 5k, and run outside starting next spring (it's just the gym right now) and am secretly daydreaming about a marathon, someday. But one goal at a time. Today is to just get myself out there and run my best, and feel good afterwards.
Because in the end, it's what we want, right? Feel good after an accomplished effort. So maybe it's not about your dream yet, but the given satisfaction will help you reach it. Someday.

Xoxo
