There are
three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and
long-term goals. Short-range goals are
those that ___1____ (usual) deal with
current activities, which we can apply on a daily
__2___ (base).
Such goals can be
achieved in a week or less, or two week, or
possible months. It should be remembered
that just as a building is no ___3___
(strong) than its foundation, our long-term goals
cannot be
accomplished without the
___4___ (achieve) of solid short-term goals. Upon
completing our short-term
goals, we
should date the occasion and then add new short-
term goals that will build on those that have
been ___5___ (complete).
The
intermediate
goals
buckled

the
foundation
of
the
short-range
goals.
They
might
deal
with
just
one
term of school or the entire school year, or they
could even extend for several ___6___ (year). Any
time
you
move
a
step
at
a
time,

(overwhelm).

grow, your ___9___ (motivate) and desire will

of action.

supposed to ask questions or think for themselves
in any way. Teachers
were
