So the goal I’m currently working towards is becoming more disciplined. I think this is a problem in my character that I have had since childhood. It was, it had always been hard for me to set goals and complete them. So right now I’m setting the goal to become better in completing goals. I need that character trait to become more successful in every where that I need to be. Maybe with work, for example, or with working out and being healthy. I think that’s the reason why I started in the first place because I wanted to become more disciplined towards my health. I am a person who loves to eat delicious but not really healthy food so it had been hard for me to keep eating clean and to work out too. So I set myself this goal to become more disciplined and fix that in my character. So far I have done a lot of things. I have started journaling to to understand myself better, to understand where those problems come for and how can I fix them. And I think it’s working because I can see that my discipline has become better over time. There are a lot of things that challenge me, but most of them are that I don’t have a lot of people around me who have the same goal as me. So it’s hard to be alone in this. But I can do it.

So the goal I'm currently working towards is becoming more disciplined. I think this is a problem in my character that I have had since childhood. It has always been hard for me to set goals and complete them. So right now, I'm setting the goal to become better at completing goals. I need that character trait to become more successful in every area where I need to be, maybe with work, for example, or with working out and being healthy. I think that's the reason why I started in the first place, because I wanted to become more disciplined regarding my health. I am a person who loves to eat delicious but not really healthy food, so it has been hard for me to keep eating clean and to work out too. So I set myself this goal to become more disciplined and improve that aspect of my character. So far, I have done a lot of things. I have started journaling to understand myself better, to understand where those problems come from and how I can fix them. I think it's working because I can see that my discipline has improved over time. There are a lot of things that challenge me, but most of them are that I don't have many people around me who have the same goal as I do. So it's hard to be alone in this. But I can do it.
