Hello! - An Introduction

My name is Yara Abuelreish, and I am 14 years old. I live in Amman, Jordan and go to high school, grade 9 to be specific. Jordan isn't a very exciting place, and these days I've had to go through a very repetitive cycle, which is making me extremely lazy. Therefore, I've decided to improve my lifestyle by placing several goals that I aim to accomplish in approximately one year from now, 1/1/2015. I have placed resolutions in the past, and I've failed to accomplish most of them, however this time I have decided to start a blog to record all of my progress as I go along, to give me a reason to pursue these goals, and have someone, you -a.k.a the reader-, come along the ride with me...and these goals are:

1. Get fit - through kickboxing and regular exercise
2. Eat healthier
3.Lose 10-15 kg (22-37.5 lb) excess fat and replace it with muscles
4. Practice drawing and painting more often
5. Place a sufficient system for organising my room.
6. Discover some new places to go to in Jordan
7. Discover new events and concerts in Jordan
8. Be nicer to my sister
9. Be less socially incompetent with my *distant family members.
10. Join more extracurricular activities for school extra credit
11. Discover several options for college/university
12. Stand up to mean people/ bullies
13. Read one book every 2 weeks
14. Improve my writings skills
15. Engage with my favorite YouTubers over social media
16. Learn some computer programming skills
17. Find a part-time/summer job
18. Go back to taking piano lessons
19. Learn French
20. Learn more about the human physcology
21. Learn more about myself psychologically
22. Bond more with my family-especially with my grandparents

In conclusion, I have 22 goals that I aim to accomplish in one year, and over the following week I will analyze how I aim to accomplish them and which methods I'm going to use. Comment below and tell me what you think!

Good luck Yara in achieving all your goals, my advice to you is to think carefully and to find your priorities in these goals; after that to re-order them beginning with the most important.
If you do this, you will know where you are standing after 4 or 6 goals...

Love you Yara
Good luck

You're absolutely right! I have started to do so, which I will show in my next post, if it ever decides to post. Thank you so much for the support!

Dear Yara,
I am pro self improvement, and having goals in your life keeps you motivated. As much as you achieve during this year, possibly all, you will still have this positive energy to pursue more. Enjoy your journey! As much as i'm personally against Miley Cyrus's outrageous character, i do agree with "Ain't about how fast I get there..Ain't about what's waiting on the other side..It's the climb!! "

I share with you #4 and #19 :)
