A goal is something you are trying to achieve. Everyone has a goal even not all are saying it. A wish is a goal if you put effort and give your best to achieve it.

Everyone has a different goal and everyone has a different ways in achieving it but everyone will feel satisfied and happy when the goal is reached or achieved.

I haven't posted my goal here in Hive but it doesn't mean I don't have one, but instead I have three main goals that I am hoping, praying and working to achieve on or before the end of the year.

Without further ado, let me share my 3 main goals.

Buy new cellphone

For now, we have one android phone in the family and this is my cellphone. This is a REALME C2 phone with 2GB RAM and 32GB ROM. I am using this for blogging. My son is using this too to watch educational videos. My husband is using this for watching videos as his way of relaxation when he got home from work. There are times, I wanted to use it but I can't because I need to give some time for him to use too because he only have limited time to use my cellphone.

Aside from that my cellphone is lagging most of the time. Sometimes I almost lost my temper when replying some comment here in hive. I also experienced double posting might be because of lag or because of slow signal or data connection.

Because of those reason, I really wanted to buy a new phone with 4GB RAM and 128 ROM or it will depend on the budget. If it will happen, I will give this phone to my husband so he will have his own and I can use my new phone for myself to write, post and interact in blogging.

That is my first goal before the end of the year.

Achieve 500HP here in Hive

My second goal before the year end is to achieve 500 Hive Power. This is a small goal compared to others but reaching this within this year will make me glad.

Oh, today is September 13 and it marks my second month here since I posted my introductory blog. I can't imagine that I was here for two months already. Indeed, time flies so fast.

Family outing on the beach

Beach is something like a very special gift for us to go, visit and enjoy. We seldom go to beach and go swimming.

Family's happiness is my happiness too. So having it as a goal is not only focused for myself but for my family too and it helps me to strive more to attain it.

Outing always needs money and that's reality. Some needs too much and others needs just enough to supply the needs.

For me, I needed extra money for it. I can't save some money for that from my husband salary because his salary is enough and sometimes not enough to sustain our daily needs. I really need to find ways to earn money too.

3 goals are interconnected

These 3 main goals before the end of the year is interconnected. These goals can be attained with the help of HIVE. I have to give time to write quality blogs, give time to interact, give time to take good pictures and above all I need self discipline to save.

Yes, I need self discipline to save. Since I join here, I haven't cash out any cents or dollar from hive because I have those goals. There are times that I wanted to withdraw some for other purposes but I always tell myself no hold on because hive earning is specified for a specific goal.

I really need to achieve my 500 Hive Power goal while achieving to save atleast 200 HBD to buy a new cellphone and have money for beach outing.

Others might say, oh it's so small, it's so easy to attain but for me it is still challenging because I am also busy in the outside world being a housewife and a full time mom plus I already have a student right now that I need to accompany him in school.

Having attainable goals is better for me than having goals that seems so difficult for me to achieve. I felt bad when I can't reach my goals so I better set goals that I think I can. Lately, I never push myself more than the limits because instead of winning I end up losing. Last month, I really tried my best to write atleast one blog a day except Saturday alternately in two platforms. There were times that I felt so sleepy and not feeling well but I tried pushing myself to attain some goal but I end up in sickness. Having goal is good, trying hard is good but sometimes we need to put limitations and learn to consider other aspects of our life like our health and family.

So, this time, I will give my best to attain my goals but not pushing myself more than the limits. I am hoping and feeling excited to reach those goals on or before the end of the year.

This is my participation in the Ladies of Hive community contest 99 and I choose this question.

We are already in September and soon it will be the last quarter of the year. Do you have a specific goal you want to achieve by the end of the year? Tell us about it and what you are doing or will do to achieve it.

Thank you so much @ladiesofhive for initiating this contest and thank you also @irenenavarroart for this wonderful topic to write.

I would like to invite @bmjc98, @teacherlynlyn, @jeansapphire, @jane1289, @ayane-chan, @jijisaurart and @ruffatotmeee to share their thoughts about laws for women in our country or share your year end goals.
