Hopes, ambitions (抱负), dreams. How many of yours will you achieve? When you look back at your life in the future, will you have good memories of all the things that you did? Or will you regret all the things that you didn’t do?
Of course, there’s no easy road to success, but one thing is certain: success won’t come if you don’t do anything. So how do you do it? This four-step model will help you to make your dreams come true.
Step 1: What would you like to do? Write down all your ambitions. They may be very general, such as I would like to be fitter. I want to be famous. or It would be nice to have more friends. Or they may be more specific, like I’ve always wanted to play a musical instrument. | Step 2: Now you need to do two things: 1. Choose one or two ambitions. 2. Set a time limit (限定). For example, I would like to be fitter in Step 1 now becomes I will be fit enough to join a half-marathon race by the end of August. |
Step 3: Now that you’ve made your choice, what are you actually going to do to achieve your goal? So, in our example, I will be fit enough to join a half - marathon race by the end of August, becomes I’m going to join a running club. Or I’m going to go jogging three times a week. | Step 4: This is when you change your intentions (意图) into specific actions, Prepare to do something at a specific time. So now I’m going to join a running club, becomes I’m meeting the president of the Cheetahs Running Club on Monday evening at 5:30. |
Don’t let your ambitions die. Follow this four step plan and make your dream come true.

There are some things that can put us in bad moods. For example, we might feel bad if we’ re not getting along well with our friends, or if we do poorly on an exam. Having bad moods too often can affect your mental health.
Accept your moods
No one can be happy all the time. Your friends and parents can also have bad moods sometimes. Bad moods are normal. Accept this first and then you can find ways to deal with it.
When you feel unhappy or upset, don’t hide your feelings or pretend that nothing is wrong. You can find a comfortable way to let them out. For example:
1. You can talk to your parents or friends.
2.
3. You can play sports or do some other kinds of activities.
Set a new goal
Messing up something can put you in a bad mood, too. But you can just try harder next time. For example:
1. You didn’t win a soccer game. Try to score a goal next time.
2. You didn’t do well on an exam. Try to get five more points next time.
