GOAL/  Become champion with my soccer team in Argentina.

My motivation to achieve this goal was my classmates to the team, my friends and my father. To achieve this, we trainer twice as hard with more intensely.

At the end of the year we managed to win the championship.

The friend's I used to have weren't good for me at all in the way they were bad influences, so I had decided I needed new friends to make better choices,so I decided I hang around better people who make better decisions.

Fear:A fear I used to have when I was younger was snakes, but I had recently overcame that when my friend went to go buy a snake from a pet shop and I started liking them more.

Achieving a Goal: About a year ago I decided that I wanted to be able to cook for myself. I was always interested in cooking and I wanted to be good at it. So I started to learn to cook by getting help from my parents or following recipes and so far after a year of practicing and learning I feel as if I've become a solid cook.

Kindness: When I was younger, I volunteered a lot for events that the church I went to held when they needed extra hands or even when they were offering, and I built a reputation for helping out whenever and offering to help out with the kids' group and within the church. I would help out all the way until the church eventually closed

Goals: My friend helped motivate me to go to the gym when I didn't want to. At first, it was a struggle, but after some time, I got into a rhythm and started to enjoy going with him. He started making me go every day, and after some time, I started to go without him

Challenge: Finding friends- I had less friends, finding friends help me know people in class. I started talking to people and made new friends.

Goal: Working made me like saving money, seeing the money pile up in my savings account. I made a goal to buy my own car. After a couple months I was able to save 2,000 to put down on my car now! I got a really good deal on it and it was just the car I wanted to be my first car.

goal:Last school year I was really bad about getting to school on time and I realized I needed to stop making excuses for myself and get up so I started by waking up earlier and forcing myself to wake up and get ready and then I slowly adapted to it.

Kindness: I volunteer at the local library during the summer and sometimes during the school year. It has made me happy and glad that I am able to help out people in the community.

Fear: I used to be really scared of my self expression and how others would see me. I've realized many people get scared of what other people see of them. I was able to start getting over it by just wearing what I wanted and no one said anything.

Challenge: I've always struggled with what I want to be out of High school. Everyone around me always knew what they wanted to be besides me. I've always been into learning about mental health and helping people around me. I've decided that I would like to pursue a path like that outside of Highschool.

Kindness: Mowing my neighbor's yard during the summer. Both my neighbors around me are very old and it was something that took not that long to do. It made me feel good because I was helping somebody and I also got to make their yard look nice.

Personal Goal: Saving money - I wanted to remodel my bedroom so in order to do that I had to save up lots of money to be able to start putting hardwood flooring in, then paint, and put more shelves in

I was a mess and i always lost things. I could never find the things i needed and it would stress me out. I decided it would make it easier if i got organized. I started taking the time to put things away neat and eventually i was not struggling anymore, So it made it easier to stay organized.

Kindness-helped family friends.

My family friends own a small pet grooming business. One of them fell sick and could not help with the business, so they were not going to be able to keep up with all the clients and cleaning. So i went in for a couple weeks and helped out until they were all better so they were able to stay open.

kindness: I had a friend freshmen year who was not a very good friend, she would always start drama with me and others, so we stopped being friends, but over the summer I realized she changed and got better. We slowly became friends again and now she is one of my best friends.

2. Goal: Having a good mindset in sports. It hasn't always been easy, but it is a necessity needed to succeed.

2 Challenge: Once I was able to get my permit I struggeled the process of getting a car, then my parents made me make a plan to get a car, so I put in all my money for a car then they put in there share, and finally I was able to get my permit and a car.

Challenge: I slightly tore my adductor ( inner thigh) during a powerlifting meet. For weeks I had to rehab it and stretch and do PT with my coach

Goal: My 8th grade year I made a goal that I would start varsity on football. I trained for 2 years but I wasn't able to because I was undersied and there was a senior infront of me. That year I trained like I never have before and now I am starting varsity

Personal Growth: I play club volleyball every year, and this year I will be playing my second year at this new club APEX. This is my 4th year playing club all together and I will usually play regional which is where my team doesn't travel too far. This year I decided to try out for an American team which means I will be traveling in and out of state for games! So, I went to a lot of extra volleyball clinics this summer and I made an American 17's team!

Fear: Failure has always scared me because of the pressure I put on myself and also the pressure other people but on me. Understanding that not everything is going to go as planned and being able to work through problems has allowed me to mature and become less afraid of failure.

Learning to be Independent ; I had to be more mature and start taking care of myself and my mom when I was younger while she was going through chemo. I learned to take care of myself & gained patience to help her make a full recovery and support my family.

Personal Growth:

Advancing in Art ; I struggled with commitment, patience, & confidence in my art. It took years to get where I am in skill wise, lots of practice, patience, and connecting with artists. Now I'm a CCAD college preview grad, 2024 & 2025, and with plenty of art college and communtiy connections and am proud of my skills.

Challenge: I have a hard time learning how to deal with my depression and anxiety, I used to think I was suffering alone and had no one to express my feelings to or just talk to, but I have realized that others suffer with the same thing and I'm not alone and I don't have to be ashamed of something I cant control.

Challenge I've overcome: I've always had a fear of public speaking but as I'm getting older I realized that its not as deep as I think it is in my head. I have always thought if I care everyone else will too. That's just not the case nobody is going to care like you care.

Fear: When I first got my permit I was super scared of driving and never wanted to, but over time my dad took me driving a lot more and I got super comfortable with it and now I really love driving.

Challenge: Being shy and quiet. I used to be quiet and shy around people I didn't know or just new people in general. But I feel like the more I've became older I have been less shy and more confident.

challenges I over came: I struggled to cut off toxic friendships I had in my life but when I finally did i felt a lot better

I had to go to a fair for the FFA and me and my friend were in a group and we say that a girl was talking to anyone or have any friends so we went over to her and let her join us.

Personal goal- Get money and save it

I've been looking for a job all summer I applied everywhere and then I finally got one back and got a job. I have been trying to save my money.

Fear: I was always afraid of failing, but then I found some strategies to not think about it. Now I'm never afraid

Kindness: My aunt has two kids now. A six year old and a one year old. My aunt is busy with her job and cannot watch the two kids all the time. My six year old cousin started school so that was not a problem. So my mom and I went to Columbus early in the morning to get the one year old kid. So we would drive an hour and half to watch my cousin. Then at around four in the afternoon we would drive forty five minutes to return my cousin.

fear: I would always care about what people thought about me. I don't know why I would but I just would, and then I started actually believing what the Bible would say and what God thought about me and I just don't care anymore what they think about.

Act of Kindness: My friend had recently gone through a break up and needed someone to hang out with. I went to hang out with her and bought her food. We hung out all day and by the end of the day she felt a little better.

Fear: When I got my temps a year ago, I was terrified of driving. I would get stressed out on the road and freak out. Over time I got used to driving and slowly got more comfortable. I passed my drivers classes and test and now I drive by myself.
