The Importance of Summer Goals
Finals are finished and the summer has already snuck up on me. After seriously take deep relaxation and catching up on sleep lost during finals week, its time to evaluate what I want to do this summer. I normally coast through summer with no defined goals and things to accomplish.
Sure everyone has the basics; like saving money, travel and to leave with memorable and fun times, maybe complete summer school. For many college students, the summer can be the perfect launch pad for the near future. With a surplus of free time, summer goals can help position yourself to reach and accomplish your big long term goals for the next couple years . I plan to use this summer to experiment in practicing lifestyle design, along with goals to making a better, newer, stronger version of myself. So here are a few of my goals to accomplish this summer….in no particular order.
- Build solid relationships with new people, and enhance present relationships
- Meditate 15 minutes each morning
- Thoroughly read and study 1 book a week - expand my library
- Find an ideal apartment/condo downtown or in midtown, near Sac State
- Experience Yosemite
- Watch David Beckham and the LA Galaxy play live
- Continue building my website
- Maintain work out regimen, 3 times a week
- Learn to play the acoustic guitar
- Practice and improve my Spanish
- Revamp and restart the Financial Fraternity
- Get published in a newspaper and magazine
- Find more mentors and meet new influential people
- Start savings for my 2010 South Africa trip for the World Cup
- Attend 3 seminars
Definitely take the time, preferably with a good friend or a goal buddy, and map out clearly defined goals to accomplish this summer. Goals do not have to be serious and all business; make goals to have fun and experience enjoyable times with good people. Become a better, faster, stronger version of yourself by making goals to have a kick-ass summer.
I will be posting my progress of certain goals throughout the summer. Chances are, I will be constantly adding more goals to the list as during my summer encounters.

Hello
I'm currently a full time student at Sacramento State University, where I'm studying Journalism and Communications. At 2o years old, I frequently face the question of what I want to do in my life. This blog serves as a platform for myself to write and explore about Personal Development, Lifestyle Design, Interpersonal Communication, and anything random that interests me. I enjoy watching basketball and real football (soccer). I'm also a racquetball enthusiast.

How bad is it that the only summer goal I have time for at the moment is to create a list of actual goals?
On the bright side, I have had time to read (and thoroughly enjoy) books I didn’t even have on a reading list, and I have plenty of ideas for blog posts floating around in my head… it’s just a matter of getting everything down on paper.
Fortunately, we still have a few days until June.
How come visiting Ecuador isn’t on that list? Toilets really do go the other way on the other side, I checked. Will be interested in checking in on your progress.
