How did you reach your goal? Did you follow a plan to get you to the top?

Linda

The first time I was told to write down goals as at an under 21s Youth Camp and at the time I thought, “Oh God, goals again!” Cause you know we get goals always chucked at us at school and having to write down your goals; and at the time I hadn’t made the under 21s and my three goals that I wrote down anyway, just to finish the activity was to be a representative under 21s, and to make the Silver Ferns, and be on the playing starting line up for the Silver Ferns. And that seemed like a real long term goal, something that if I was going to achieve it, it would be a long way away. But just you know, in any situation where you are wanting to achieve or to succeed in anything, if you just write it down, its actually really important because then you’ve created just that little thought and dream in the back of your mind.

And if you don’t write down where you are going, you are going to be lost before you even start. So whatever you think may be achievable or not achievable don’t close those doors, just have them written down or even think about them, and you know you will aspire to get there if you’ve written them down.
