goal

 Setting realistic goals is the first step to achieving your dreams. It’s important to be honest with yourself about what you can accomplish, and also to be flexible enough to adjust your expectations as you move through life.

You may have heard the phrase “dream big,” but that doesn’t mean you should just make up some huge goal and expect it to happen without any effort on your part. Instead, think of your goals as a series of steps toward the ultimate vision of where you want to end up. If those steps are too big or too small, they won’t get you very far in the long run.
