There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-term and long-term goals.
Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities,which we can apply on a daily basis.Such goals can be achid in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, our long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achiment of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The medium-term goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could n extend for sral years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should nr allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.
Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the ture. They might cover five years or . Life is not a static thing. We should nr allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.
目标
目标有三种：短期目标、中期目标和长期目标。
短期目标通常着眼于眼前的活动，人们可以以天为单位，逐日实施。这样的目标可以在一周或不到一周、或两周乃至数月内实现。人们不应忘记，没有坚固的基础就没有坚固的建筑物；同样，不去扎扎实实地实现短期目标，我们就不可能在实现长期目标上有大的作为。在完成短期目标之后，我们应当标明日期，并在已实现的目标基础上规划新的短期目标。
中期目标以短期目标为基础。中期目标可能涉及一个学期或整整一学年，甚至可能延续数年之久。无论何时你只能一次向前迈一步，绝不能使自己失去信心或者把自己压得喘不过气来。这样每完成一步，你就会增强对自己能力的信心：你有发展潜力，可以事业有成。随着列出的目标实现日期表的加长，你的动力和要求也会增加。
长期目标可能与我们对未来的憧憬有关。长期目标可能跨越五年或者更长时间。人生不是静止不变的。我们决不应当让长期目标束缚我们的手脚、限制我们的行为。
