  2. I like this one Robin, I certainly need to set goals to ensure I accomplish all of my tasks. My fifteen year old daughter is very competitive and does extremely well when she sets goals for herself. Without a competition or set goal she performs with the "does just enough to get by" attitude. I have enjoyed watching her set goals for herself and pushing herself over the last few weeks. I am hoping she stays strong and is ready to apply this to her academics!
