You set goals by practicing those goals and then accomplish those goals. When you accomplish those goals then you will be able to accomplish your main goal, your life.
What makes a good goal is something that you need to work on. For example I have therapy to do and I’m having a hard time applying it to my life so that’s a goal that I need to accomplish. I am working on it.
How I know that I’ve met my goal is by either getting tested on what I’ve learned or by paying attention to what I’m doing. My main goal is graduating this program that I’m in so I can go home and see all of my friends and go to a normal school. I want to get out of here by either December or January. That’s what I want to do. I don’t want to be in this program for over a year but as long as I get the help that I need.

Goals
Goals are important to set they help you to overcome things or just make it easier to know what you want and were you want to get. You set goals by taking a step back and taking a look at what you really want to do and what you need to do it. It’s probably easier to write this stuff down while your thinking about it. Now if it’s a long term goal your probably going to want to have more steps towards reaching your goal.
I think that a good goal is something that is truly going to help you in the long run by making you a healthy and better person. You will know that you have met your goal when you get there because if you are truly trying to complete your goal you will be keeping track of it. When people tell me that need to do what I need to do to get out I kind of get irritated I know that they are trying to help me out but really its not as easy as it seems to just do everything I need to there are a bunch of stuff that goes on that prevents me from doing that but you know what all a person can do is try and I think that people on the other side of the fence looking at us needs to understand this and maybe try to see what else is happing around us that maybe caused us to mess up or whatever.
I think that Nick has shown a lot of those signs of abuse he has forced Cat to stop hanging out with her best friend Elsa and that is a big form of isolation he just want her for himself he gets too jealous.
He seems to blame his parents about a lot of this stuff mostly his dad for being an angry person and hitting him I can see why he hit Caitlin because he is so used to getting hit that he thinks that it is the way that its supposed to be he really doesn’t know any other way so therefore you cant completely expect him to know that its completely wrong. I think that the chart is right about the abuse and I really think that girls need to realize what’s going on when this stuff is happing to them so they can get away from it or try to help the person that she is with.

Integrity
Integrity is what you do when nobody is watching,, and I think another definition is do what you say, and say what you do. I try to live an honest life by taking accountability when I am either confronted or when I am doing something wrong.
I believe that my grandfather has integrity because he almost always does the right thing, and he has done that at least my whole life, and from what I’ve heard his whole life to. He also has been there for me many times when he said he would, and that is why my grandfather is my hero because he has a lot of integrity and has shown it. He has retired from four separate jobs just to keep his family fed, and to keep a shelter on their head. My grandfather also told me to be grateful which is hard sometimes because sometimes I am as well as others in a difficult situation every now and then and when times get rough:
In the holocaust a lot of people die,
Even the some wish they could fly.
They had worked all day,
And got no play.
They worked their tails off,
And didn’t get to fight Adolph.
In the end they all were hurt,
They had been in dirt,
But now some are saved and have the scares,
And now they drive home safe in their cars.
Just a little something to remember when times get rough that you for yourself need to be tough.

Building Integrity And Becoming More Honest
My life, for the past six months, has been based on developing integrity and becoming stronger with honesty. I love the start of Summits Creed because it applies to what I want to strive for and become. I don’t believe that Summit has done anything for me with this goal. I do believe that I have done this myself.
Integrity, as I see it, is what I do when no one is watching me. This means when I’m not under the supervision and have no one to answer to. Integrity has been hard for me to work on integrity for that very reason. I have been watched almost 24/7 for the past 6 months. I have had a program and a judge to answer to.
My patients and strength has been tested more than anything. I believe that those attributes will feed into my integrity and honesty. I’m in for the long haul at this point. Integrity and honesty have their price that must be paid. I’m learning to have to pay now.

Hunting
Hunting is a sport of going into the wilderness and tracking a certain game animal to kill it. Hunters use different types of weapons for different types of game. Bird hunters use dogs to help them find the game bird and retrieve them after they have been shot down. Hunters normally use shotguns to hunt game birds. Shotguns shoot hundreds of tiny lead balls that come in a shotgun shell. There are a few different sizes of shotguns. They are called gauges, some are more powerful and hold a bigger shell and some are less powerful and hold a smaller shell. The sizes of shotguns from most powerful too least powerful are, 10 gauge, 12 gauge, 16 gauge, 20 gauge, 28 gauge, and 410 gauge.
Some hunters will even use shotguns to hunt big game such as deer. These hunters will use a bigger shell, which holds a bullet called a slug. Or they may even use what is called buckshot, which is a shell with bigger lead balls.
The game bird hunters use dogs to help them hunt, here are some names of the most known dogs they use, English Pointer, German Shorthaired Pointer, and Labrador Retrievers. These dogs will use there very good nose to sniff and find the game birds, when they get close to the game birds they freeze up and look in the direction of the birds. The hunter will then walk up in front of the dog and “flush” the birds when the birds fly the hunter will shoot, if the hunter gets a bird or two the dog will run to where the birds are and grab them one at a time in there mouth and bring it back to the hunter. This goes on until the day ends or the hunter has his limit of game birds.

Snowboarding
One thing to do in the winter is snowboard. You can go up into the mountains and take your board and try different things and see if they work or not. I love to snowboard during the winter. It makes me calm when I am doing something that is fun and exciting. I first learned how to snowboard about a year or so ago, and I fell in love with it.
My brother had taught me in our back yard when he built a ramp out of the snow that year. I gave in when he kept asking me how to learn. It was so fun that I went out everyday to see if I could get better and better at it. The board people use can vary from person to person and the boots that go with the board varies also.
When you are out with your friends it can be even better. You can laugh and have fun, and try and beat each other in tricks, how fast you can go, and also who eats the snow harder. In other words who crashes better, or funnier.
I love all kinds of sports and can’t imagine not doing them. When you are on the mountain you are in fresh air and you can just take a deep breath and slide down the mountain just getting rid of your frustration and anger that you have. For me, it is a stress releaser, and just plain awesome to do.
I never really liked the cold, but now I look forward to the winter so that I can go snowboarding or even just down the driveway at my old house; but falling on the driveway hurts a lot worse than it does on the mountains. I love to go with friends and ride our snowmobiles up to the spots and then just have them drive me up the mountain and race down with me. A lot of people think of me as very sporty.
But, I am going to say that I love winter sports a lot more than summer. The cold can just make you breathless while the hot summer days make me think a lot and have nothing really to do because it is so hot.
The snow suits that we have to wear to go boarding are so fun; you can not really feel anything while your wearing them, so you can wrestle in the snow and fall. You can also try to race in 6 feet deep snow banks. For me, every time that I am playing outside in the winter I have a fantastic time, loosing track of the real time but, I love it, and I think it is fun to do. I cannot wait until the winter is here.
