A2. Set Small, Clear Goals

Set Small, Clear Goals

Everyone has big dreams. Maybe your dream is to speak English, play music, or travel.

Big dreams feel wonderful—but they feel difficult too.

How can you reach your dreams?

The secret is simple: set small, clear goals.

Small goals are easy steps you can do every day. For example, if you want to speak great English, set one small goal each day. Today, learn five new words. Tomorrow, listen to a short English podcast. The next day, talk to a friend in English.

Small goals help because they feel easy. When you finish a small goal, you feel happy. You want to keep going. With enough small steps, your big dreams get closer and closer.

Cristiano Ronaldo, the football player, didn’t become great in one day. He practiced small skills every day—kicking, running, passing. Each skill helped him become one of the best players in history.

Try it! Think of your dream. Then write down three small goals. Make sure each goal is clear and easy. Do one goal today, one tomorrow, and one the next day.

Small goals make you feel successful, which is motivating. Small goals help you stay focused. Big dreams will come true, if you take one small step at a time.

Don’t wait—set a small goal today, and your dreams will soon follow!
