Saving for the Future

Goal Setting is a fundamental principle that we require in order to succeed in life. It is a way of thinking about one’s ideal future, and motivating one’s self to turn any desired vision of the future into reality. Personally, I believe that if one is able to set goals and actually stick to it, the opportunities offered by the world are endless.
For example, if someone was to tell me last year that I will be going to New York City for a holiday and to Britney Spears’s concert in VIP style, I would’ve been really annoyed at them for placing false and unattainable fantasies into my head.

Flash-forward twelve months to today, and guess what? These dreams I had for so long, are on its way to being fulfilled all in a matter of 5 months! April 2009 was when I decided that I will stop spending money unnecessarily, cut out all shopping, and work as much as possible. Yes it has been hard; there were days where I simply long to just spend the miserable ten dollars on just anything, but determination have kept me away from that.

It is now October 2009, I will be seeing Britney twice in two weeks time, and will be living large from my 8 months of hard work and sacrifice in New York City! Now blog buddies don’t you think that that is worth it? Perhaps try setting a semi-impossible goal and see if you are able to achieve it; with hard work and determination, you will be surprised by the results!
