GOAL SETTING

DR. JOHN GODDARD is one of the world’s most famous explorers and adventurers. His philosophy from the age of 15 has been: "To dare is to do, to fear is to fail."

One day when he was 15 years old, he was bored. It was raining outside and there was nothing to do. Suddenly, he got an idea. He could write down a list of things he wanted to do in his life. He could write a list of life goals. He wrote for a long time. When he was done, he had written down 127 goals that he wanted to accomplish in his life. Some of them were easy and some were hard. Now he is over 70 years old and he has accomplished over 109 of these goals as well as over 400 other goals.

Here are some of the goals that John wrote down as a teenager (you can see the whole list on internet at ).

John didn't want his life to be just one of chance. He thought about what he wanted to experience very early in his life and wrote them down as goals. This helped him focus on what he wanted to accomplish and his life shows the power of setting goals for your life.

John has lived with and studied 260 cultures and tribes (head hunters, pygmies, hippies and others), He has climbed 12 of the world’s highest mountains, conducted 14 major expeditions, gone down 15 of the world’s most treacherous rivers including the Amazon and Nile (he was the first man to explore the whole Nile river). He has visited 120 countries. He has run a five minute mile. He has parachuted from planes. He has read the whole Bible and the encyclopedia cover to cover and many other books. He has followed the travels of Marco Polo through all of the Middle East, Asia and China. He has visited the Great Wall of China, the Taj Mahal in India, and climbed the Matterhorn (during a blizzard when even other professional climbers wouldn’t climb).

He was attacked by hippos and crocodiles. He has survived plane crashes and earthquakes. He was bitten by a diamondback rattlesnake and lived! He has faced death 38 times.

He has explored the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, the Red Sea, and more. He has flown 47 different kinds of airplanes. He set a civilian air-speed record of 1,500 miles an hour (2413.5 km/hr) and another record for flying to an altitude of 63,000 feet (19202.4 meters).

Goddard did not do these adventures just for excitement. The adventures were done to help add to our understanding of the world. He says, "Digging out the facts is the real challenge. The adventure is exciting and enjoyable--but secondary."

When asked what adventure was the most enjoyable and exciting, John said, “Oh, that's easy. It has to be my family -- my wife and five children."

Would you like to have a life of adventure like John did? It is possible. John says, "If you really know what you want out of life, it's amazing how opportunities will come to enable you to carry them out." He says that most people don’t accomplish very much because they don’t have clear goals.

The experiences and principles of people like John can help you too to live a useful and adventurous life!

PROJECT: Putting it into Practice!

John also says that to have balance in our lives, you should make goals in these areas:

1) HEALTH

PHYSICAL: Follow good health principles so you have energy and ability to accomplish your goals.

EMOTIONAL: Reduce negative emotions. Be social, helpful and active in your community.

SPIRITUAL: Strengthen yourself spiritually every week and LIVE what you learn from God and nature.

2) RELATIONSHIPS: Build skills to make better and more positive relationships with people.

3) EDUCATION: Learn knowledge and skills from school and regularly from books, good media, friends, etc.

4) CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT: Meet and experience people from different backgrounds and cultures.

5) FINANCIAL SECURITY: Be disciplined and delay gratification. Reduce and get rid of debt. Invest wisely.

There are others as well: romance, travel, service, entertainment, the arts, etc. Let’s start by writing down your goals in some of these areas! Spend some time thinking about this and then write down at least 25 goals. Make sure to use some “want to” sentences, some future tense sentences and several present perfect sentences.

SPORTS/HEALTH: I want to win a basketball championship. I have decided to jog 1 mile a day.

SPIRITUAL: I will read the Bible regularly. I will volunteer to help poor people for 1 year. I have determined to be honest about my mistakes and apologize quickly even when it’s hard.

RELATIONSHIPS: I want to marry an Eskimo, rub noses and have 12 children^_^!!! I have decided to be positive and encouraging. I have determined that I will be an incredible husband/wife.

EDUCATION: I want to study astronomy. I will learn how DNA works. I have chosen 50 cultures to study and learn about.

ADVENTURE: I will sky dive off a waterfall. I have decided to sail in a yacht around the world.

CAREER/FINANCIAL: I will be a doctor. I have planned to own a home in the country. I have decided that I will win a horse race.

SHARE: Every student stands up and tells the class 5-10 of your goals.

PROJECT OF WRITING OUT 3 GOALS AND HOW YOU WILL ACHIEVE THEM

John Goddard writes in his book that setting goals has been “immensely rewarding” and “a daily blueprint for reaching toward an even more meaningful life and a higher level of happiness, growth and success.” How do you achieve your goals? In his book “The Survivor” (p. 243), John shared his method for achieving his goals.

1. WRITE THE GOALS DOWN: Making clear goals and visualizing yourself achieving them.

2. CREATE A PLAN: Write out the details that are necessary to achieve the goals you have made.

3. PREPARATION: Get the training and gather the materials or whatever you need to accomplish the goal.

4. PERSISTING & ACTION: Never Give up! If you have done 1-3, then it’s time to act and do it!

Choose 3 of the 25 goals that you wrote down. Think about goals of people you know about and how they achieved them. Then write your goals in these 3 areas (and try to include 1-2 pictures of your goal or dream) and make sure to use ~5-10 PRESENT PERFECT sentences in it:

• DREAM: How did you get this dream? (Where did the inspiration come from?) What’s your dream in detail?

• RESOURCES NEEDED: What specific things do you need to learn or to get to reach that goal? What things have you finished already (use present perfect for these sentences. Some examples are underlined.)?

• COMMITMENT: What will you do this week, this month, this year toward reaching that dream?

EXAMPLE 1: DREAM—SKY DIVING

I have often dreamed about doing sky diving. Many people have wanted to fly like the birds and there are many ways to do this. If you’re in an airplane, you are flying, but you can’t feel the wind in your fast and you can’t feel how fast you are flying. It’s not the same to me. I want to feel all of the sky and wind. I want to feel like I’m flying. I want to be safe, but have the feeling of danger and excitement. So, I think sky diving will be a very exciting thing to do.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I will need to earn money for sky diving lessons and renting the airplane and parachute. I have saved $400 already, but I need $200 more dollars. I will need to learn about sky diving techniques and flying suits and parachutes. I have found a place where I can take sky diving classes. I am sure I will have many questions to ask, so I will need to find people who have done sky diving to help prepare me to do it myself.

COMMITMENT

How will I accomplish this? I will watch sky diving movies to get some basic ideas. I will get a part time job and I will take a class in sky diving as soon as I save enough money. Before that time, I will surf the internet at sky diving sites. If there are any sky diving websites I will join their e-mail lists and chats. In that way I can meet people who can answer my questions and give me useful ideas about sky diving. I will call information to find sky diving schools or clubs where I can learn about sky diving. I plan to sky dive before I am 35 years old.

EXAMPLE 2: DREAM--DOCTOR TO THE POOR

I read stories about Mother Theresa, Albert Schweitzer and many other doctors who did good work for people in poor countries. Albert Schweitzer was very smart and could have been a rich doctor in England. But, he chose to live in African for 30 years and saved many lives there. He also wrote several articles against nuclear weapons and received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952. His story really inspired me and so I want to do something similar. I think that if I work to help poor people, it will be very interesting to see how they are living. I will see their problems and their culture and what they do for fun. I will also feel that I have lived a useful life if I can help people like Schweitzer did.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I will need to go to medical school. I think I will specialize in pediatrics (children’s medicine). I have always wanted to help children a lot. Medical school is expensive so I will need a lot of money. My parents can help pay some, but I will need to get a job and make some money. I have found a part time job that will pay $500 a month. I have also taken courses in biology and physiology.

I will also need to learn about the body very well. So, I have found some medical textbooks about the about the body. I have also found internet sites that teach many things about the body. I will study those, videos and talk to friends who are doctors.

COMMITMENT

I will start working toward this dream by buying some books about doctors who helped people and reading them. I will also buy some books about the body and learn some of the basics of how it works. When I get to high school, I will volunteer to work in a hospital or at a country clinic for one summer. I will study my science classes very hard and if I meet doctors, I will talk to them and ask many questions and ask them their advice. I will look for internet sites and places where I can take classes about medical things.

I will also look agencies or places that need doctors to work in needy countries. Through these places and their contacts I can find many opportunities to help save lives. In these and other ways, I will work toward my dream of becoming a doctor and helping people be healthier and happier.

EXAMPLE 3: DREAM--LIVING IN FRANCE (well done homework by a DSU student, with improvements by Bryan Bissell)

I have liked art since I was young. One day, I saw France on the television. What I saw the sight of Paris in France, it was so elegant and it made me think, “That’s my style!” As I’ve grown up, I have become interesting in learning French because it sounds soft and graceful too. Also, I have searched for information which is concerned with France. What I really admire about the French lifestyle is their “tolerance”. Most of the French do not force their opinions on other people. They persuade other people with demonstrations if they want to convince someone. Therefore, as soon as I get the opportunity, I have decided to live for a few years in France and enjoy that lifestyle.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I might need gigantic assets and certificates to live in France. I still have not saved any money, but I have studied French since 2008. (In my high school time, it was too difficult to study it because I had to prepare for the Korean SAT.) I will take a French test, Niveau DELF B2, in September in this year. I have found a place for studying French. I will go to L’Alliance Francais du Busan starting this month. I will save money to pay the expenses starting this month with a scholarship from E-zine (the English magazine of Dongseo University).

COMMITMENT

I already have books for studying for the French test. However, the problem is that there is not enough time to study French, so I have decided to study it in my free time between classes at school. I will join festivals or seminars in L’Alliance Francais du Busan in order to experience French culture. I will study French in various ways such as French movies, French books, and so on. By the time I graduate from university, I will get a certificate in French, the Niveau DALF C2 and TCF, and I will save money to support myself in France as soon as possible by working in internships or by doing holiday work in France until I can get a permanent job there.

LESSONS TO LEARN FROM “A WALK TO REMEMBER”

The movie “A Walk To Remember” is a touching & sad love story & it has several good lessons for us to think about in dating:

1) LOOK FOR TRUE LOVE: 2 times in the movie, characters read from the Bible love chapter, 1 Corinthians 13:4-7/고린도전서 13:4-7. The qualities of true love here are crucial in having a love that gets deeper and stronger and more passionate over the years. Look for these qualities in your partner and try to become like this yourself.

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

4 사랑은 오래 참습니다. 사랑은 친절합니다. 사랑은 시기하지 않습니다. 사랑은 자랑하지 않습니다. 사랑은 교만하지 않습니다. 5사랑은 무례히 행동하지 않습니다. 사랑은 자기 유익을 구하지 않습니다. 사랑은 쉽게 성내지 않습니다. 사랑은 원한을 품지 않습니다. 6사랑은 불의를 기뻐하지 않고 진리와 함께 기뻐합니다. 7사랑은 모든 것을 덮어 주며, 모든 것을 믿으며, 모든 것을 소망하며, 모든 것을 견뎌 냅니다.

2) MAKE GOD #1 IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP: People who really put God first in their lives are much better marriage partners. This is NOT just going to church. A person who puts God first, really LIVES and FOLLOWS the relationships truths in the Bible (some are in #1 above). They will be patient, humble and kind. They will not be rude, proud or self seeking. They will sacrifice for you and they won’t reject your needs. They will admit their mistakes and try to change things that bother you because they love God AND you. They will look for ways to help you achieve your goals. They will never give up on you. These principles of God with God’s power in your life help relationships become MUCH stronger. ~50% of marriages end in divorce. But, if a man and woman go to church often, get married in a church, pray and read the Bible together, only 1 out of 1,105 of those marriages end in divorce.

3) MARRY SOMEONE WITH SIMILAR BELIEFS: It’s VERY important that you marry someone who believes the same way that you do or has similar morals and philosophy. Your beliefs affect your money choices. They affect how you spend your time. They determine the goals that you have. They affect what you teach your children and so much more. If your beliefs are not the same, there will be many arguments and a much higher chance for divorce. So, be sure to marry someone with very similar beliefs in moral/religious areas.

4) IMPROVE YOURSELF: Before you can date someone you need to become an interesting dating partner. How?

A) BECOME INTERESTING: To be an interesting and surprising person, you need to focus on improving abilities, knowledge and relationship skills. That means you need to read, listen a lot and talk to other people. Read in many IMPORTANT topics (not just comic books). Be informed about world events, issues, inventions, etc. Join a club. Join a church (or change to a new church) and go on church youth trips. Try out for a drama or musical group. Go to English cafes. Go to a new institute and learn a new skill. Try new sports games (great place to meet guys). Learn poetry.

B) BE INVOLVED IN LIFE: Jamie and Landon fall in love while in drama club together. In real life, this is often how people fall in love (many actors and actresses fell in love while making movies). So, don’t stay at home all the time. Get involved in many activities. Travel around your city, country and abroad when possible. Be active in student politics (or real politics). Join human rights campaigns. Do service activities. Help out at orphanages, hospitals, nursing homes. There are many things you can do. But, try many activities and try to say YES to most new activities and outings. You might meet the love of your life (.

C) TRIAL/ERROR: If you make a mistake, don’t repeat it. If you find something that works well, remember it and use it.

D) IMPROVE YOUR LOOKS: They say that you don’t get a 2nd chance to make a good first impression. Your mind is most important for sure. But, the fact is that many people will not want to know more about you if you look messy, dirty, lazy, disorganized, boring, etc. Your looks give people a hint about your character. So, think about how you can improve your appearance. Ask some friends to be honest with you. Try out a new hairstyle or new fashion styles. Become attractive and unique.

5) LOOK AT CHARACTER AND POTENTIAL: Sometimes it’s easy to look just on the surface and miss a great girl or guy. Some guys just looked at the old sweater Jamie wore and didn’t look any deeper. They lost out on dating a girl who was actually beautiful on the outside AND the inside. Looks can change and improve quite easily and there are more important things than good looks. Jamie looks at Landon & sees something special about him even though he has some bad qualities. She tells him, “You can be anything”. She believes he has potential & can do anything. Look at people deeply. Look at their potential, not just at their present. Believe in them.

6) EMOTIONAL INTIMACY: Another very important thing is your “chemistry”. Do you two have an emotional connection? Can you talk about things together easily? Can you be honest and open with the other person? Do you listen well to others? Don’t always be talking about yourself. Having deep, heart to heart communication is critical for good relationships. It’s very critical to be able to talk about your concerns and problems honestly and openly. Make this a priority.

7) MEET NEW PEOPLE: The principal tells Landon that he needs to find new friends. If you don’t have a girlfriend or boyfriend, don’t just wait for Prince Charming/Cinderella to fall into your lap. Try out some new activities that will help you meet new people. When you meet them, ask questions about their interests, their life experiences, etc. Share your own interesting stories, your passions, your difficulties, your successes, etc. Learn more about other people at every chance you have.

8) ASK OPEN ENDED QUESTIONS: Don’t just ask questions that people can answer with “yes” or “no”. Ask questions starting with “Why” and “How” & other WH questions. Be curious & ask questions that help you know the other person better.

9) MEMORIZE SOME JOKES: If you hear funny stories or funny stories happen to you, write them down and don’t forget them. If you know 5-10 really good jokes or funny stories, you will appear a lot more humorous to others.

10) MAKE EACH OTHER BETTER PEOPLE: Jamie inspires Landon to do better in school, to try harder, to have big dreams. Try to find someone who inspires you and someone who helps to make you a better person. Also, be a person who inspires the other person to dream and become a better person and improve their lives.

11) SERVICE/HELPING PARTNER TOWARDS GOALS: Landon helps Jamie to achieve several of her goals. This really helps their relationship to grow a lot. Do your best to help the person you love reach their goals. Look for ways to serve them and bring joy into their lives. If you find someone who will sacrifice for you, that’s a really great partner to have.

12) GIVE MEANINGFUL GIFTS: Landon hears about Jamie’s life goals. He helps her be in 2 places at once. He buys a tattoo for her. He buys & builds a telescope for her. He marries her in the church of her dreams. Listen to your partner’s interests and goals. Watch their reactions carefully. Remember the things that they like or that they want to do. Then buy those gifts or do the activities that they are really interested in. This will really touch them and be memorable. These are the best kinds of gifts.

GOAL SETTING

DR. JOHN GODDARD is one of the world’s most famous explorers and adventurers. His philosophy from the age of 15 has been: "To dare is to do, to fear is to fail."

One day when he was 15 years old, he was bored. It was raining outside and there was nothing to do. Suddenly, he got an idea. He could write down a list of things he wanted to do in his life. He could write a list of life goals. He wrote for a long time. When he was done, he had written down 127 goals that he wanted to accomplish in his life. Some of them were easy and some were hard. Now he is over 70 years old and he has accomplished over 109 of these goals as well as over 400 other goals.

John didn't want his life to be just one of chance. He thought about what he wanted to experience very early in his life and wrote them down as goals. This helped him focus on what he wanted to accomplish and his life shows the power of setting goals for your life.

John has lived with and studied 260 cultures and tribes (head hunters, pygmies, hippies and others), He has climbed 12 of the world’s highest mountains, conducted 14 major expeditions, gone down 15 of the world’s most treacherous rivers including the Amazon and Nile (he was the first man to explore the whole Nile river). He has visited 120 countries. He has run a five minute mile. He has parachuted from planes. He has read the whole Bible and the encyclopedia cover to cover and many other books. He has followed the travels of Marco Polo through all of the Middle East, Asia and China. He has visited the Great Wall of China, the Taj Mahal in India, and climbed the Matterhorn (during a blizzard when even other professional climbers wouldn’t climb).

He was attacked by hippos and crocodiles. He has survived plane crashes and earthquakes. He was bitten by a diamondback rattlesnake and lived! He has faced death 38 times.

He has explored the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, the Red Sea, and more. He has flown 47 different kinds of airplanes. He set a civilian air-speed record of 1,500 miles an hour (2413.5 km/hr) and another record for flying to an altitude of 63,000 feet (19202.4 meters).

Goddard did not do these adventures just for excitement. The adventures were done to help add to our understanding of the world. He says, "Digging out the facts is the real challenge. The adventure is exciting and enjoyable--but secondary."

When asked what adventure was the most enjoyable and exciting, John said, “Oh, that's easy. It has to be my family -- my wife and five children."

Would you like to have a life of adventure like John did? It is possible. John says, "If you really know what you want out of life, it's amazing how opportunities will come to enable you to carry them out." He says that most people don’t accomplish very much because they don’t have clear goals.

The experiences and principles of people like John can help you too to live a useful and adventurous life!

PROJECT: Putting it into Practice!

John also says that to have balance in our lives, you should make goals in these areas:

1) HEALTH

PHYSICAL: Follow good health principles so you have energy and ability to accomplish your goals.

EMOTIONAL: Reduce negative emotions. Be social, helpful and active in your community.

SPIRITUAL: Strengthen yourself spiritually every week and LIVE what you learn from God and nature.

2) RELATIONSHIPS: Build skills to make better and more positive relationships with people.

3) EDUCATION: Learn knowledge and skills from school and regularly from books, good media, friends, etc.

4) CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT: Meet and experience people from different backgrounds and cultures.

5) FINANCIAL SECURITY: Be disciplined and delay gratification. Reduce and get rid of debt. Invest wisely.

There are others as well: romance, travel, service, entertainment, the arts, etc. Let’s start by writing down your goals in some of these areas! Spend some time thinking about this and then write down at least 25 goals. Make sure to use some “want to” sentences, some future tense sentences and several present perfect sentences.

SPORTS/HEALTH: I want to win a basketball championship. I have decided to jog 1 mile a day.

SPIRITUAL: I will read the Bible regularly. I will volunteer to help poor people for 1 year. I have determined to be honest about my mistakes and apologize quickly even when it’s hard.

RELATIONSHIPS: I want to marry an Eskimo, rub noses and have 12 children^_^!!! I have decided to be positive and encouraging. I have determined that I will be an incredible husband/wife.

EDUCATION: I want to study astronomy. I will learn how DNA works. I have chosen 50 cultures to study and learn about.

ADVENTURE: I will sky dive off a waterfall. I have decided to sail in a yacht around the world.

CAREER/FINANCIAL: I will be a doctor. I have planned to own a home in the country. I have decided that I will win a horse race.

SHARE: Every student stands up and tells the class 5-10 of your goals.

PROJECT OF WRITING OUT 3 GOALS AND HOW YOU WILL ACHIEVE THEM

John Goddard writes in his book that setting goals has been “immensely rewarding” and “a daily blueprint for reaching toward an even more meaningful life and a higher level of happiness, growth and success.” How do you achieve your goals? In his book “The Survivor” (p. 243), John shared his method for achieving his goals.

5. WRITE THE GOALS DOWN: Making clear goals and visualizing yourself achieving them.

6. CREATE A PLAN: Write out the details that are necessary to achieve the goals you have made.

7. PREPARATION: Get the training and gather the materials or whatever you need to accomplish the goal.

8. PERSISTING & ACTION: Never Give up! If you have done 1-3, then it’s time to act and do it!

Choose 3 of the 25 goals that you wrote down. Think about goals of people you know about and how they achieved them. Then write your goals in these 3 areas (and try to include 1-2 pictures of your goal or dream) and make sure to use ~5-10 PRESENT PERFECT sentences in it:

• DREAM: How did you get this dream? (Where did the inspiration come from?) What’s your dream in detail?

• RESOURCES NEEDED: What specific things do you need to learn or to get to reach that goal? What things have you finished already (use present perfect for these sentences. Some examples are underlined.)?

• COMMITMENT: What will you do this week, this month, this year toward reaching that dream?

EXAMPLE 1: DREAM—SKY DIVING

I have often dreamed about doing sky diving. Many people have wanted to fly like the birds and there are many ways to do this. If you’re in an airplane, you are flying, but you can’t feel the wind in your fast and you can’t feel how fast you are flying. It’s not the same to me. I want to feel all of the sky and wind. I want to feel like I’m flying. I want to be safe, but have the feeling of danger and excitement. So, I think sky diving will be a very exciting thing to do.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I will need to earn money for sky diving lessons and renting the airplane and parachute. I have saved $400 already, but I need $200 more dollars. I will need to learn about sky diving techniques and flying suits and parachutes. I have found a place where I can take sky diving classes. I am sure I will have many questions to ask, so I will need to find people who have done sky diving to help prepare me to do it myself.

COMMITMENT

How will I accomplish this? I will watch sky diving movies to get some basic ideas. I will get a part time job and I will take a class in sky diving as soon as I save enough money. Before that time, I will surf the internet at sky diving sites. If there are any sky diving websites I will join their e-mail lists and chats. In that way I can meet people who can answer my questions and give me useful ideas about sky diving. I will call information to find sky diving schools or clubs where I can learn about sky diving. I plan to sky dive before I am 35 years old.

EXAMPLE 2: DREAM--DOCTOR TO THE POOR

I read stories about Mother Theresa, Albert Schweitzer and many other doctors who did good work for people in poor countries. Albert Schweitzer was very smart and could have been a rich doctor in England. But, he chose to live in African for 30 years and saved many lives there. He also wrote several articles against nuclear weapons and received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952. His story really inspired me and so I want to do something similar. I think that if I work to help poor people, it will be very interesting to see how they are living. I will see their problems and their culture and what they do for fun. I will also feel that I have lived a useful life if I can help people like Schweitzer did.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I will need to go to medical school. I think I will specialize in pediatrics (children’s medicine). I have always wanted to help children a lot. Medical school is expensive so I will need a lot of money. My parents can help pay some, but I will need to get a job and make some money. I have found a part time job that will pay $500 a month. I have also taken courses in biology and physiology.

I will also need to learn about the body very well. So, I have found some medical textbooks about the about the body. I have also found internet sites that teach many things about the body. I will study those, videos and talk to friends who are doctors.

COMMITMENT

I will start working toward this dream by buying some books about doctors who helped people and reading them. I will also buy some books about the body and learn some of the basics of how it works. When I get to high school, I will volunteer to work in a hospital or at a country clinic for one summer. I will study my science classes very hard and if I meet doctors, I will talk to them and ask many questions and ask them their advice. I will look for internet sites and places where I can take classes about medical things.

I will also look agencies or places that need doctors to work in needy countries. Through these places and their contacts I can find many opportunities to help save lives. In these and other ways, I will work toward my dream of becoming a doctor and helping people be healthier and happier.

EXAMPLE 3: DREAM--LIVING IN FRANCE (well done homework by a DSU student, with improvements by Bryan Bissell)

I have liked art since I was young. One day, I saw France on the television. What I saw the sight of Paris in France, it was so elegant and it made me think, “That’s my style!” As I’ve grown up, I have become interesting in learning French because it sounds soft and graceful too. Also, I have searched for information which is concerned with France. What I really admire about the French lifestyle is their “tolerance”. Most of the French do not force their opinions on other people. They persuade other people with demonstrations if they want to convince someone. Therefore, as soon as I get the opportunity, I have decided to live for a few years in France and enjoy that lifestyle.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I might need gigantic assets and certificates to live in France. I still have not saved any money, but I have studied French since 2008. (In my high school time, it was too difficult to study it because I had to prepare for the Korean SAT.) I will take a French test, Niveau DELF B2, in September in this year. I have found a place for studying French. I will go to L’Alliance Francais du Busan starting this month. I will save money to pay the expenses starting this month with a scholarship from E-zine (the English magazine of Dongseo University).

COMMITMENT

I already have books for studying for the French test. However, the problem is that there is not enough time to study French, so I have decided to study it in my free time between classes at school. I will join festivals or seminars in L’Alliance Francais du Busan in order to experience French culture. I will study French in various ways such as French movies, French books, and so on. By the time I graduate from university, I will get a certificate in French, the Niveau DALF C2 and TCF, and I will save money to support myself in France as soon as possible by working in internships or by doing holiday work in France until I can get a permanent job there.

LESSONS TO LEARN FROM “A WALK TO REMEMBER”

The movie “A Walk To Remember” is a touching & sad love story & it has several good lessons for us to think about in dating:

1) LOOK FOR TRUE LOVE: 2 times in the movie, characters read from the Bible love chapter, 1 Corinthians 13:4-7/고린도전서 13:4-7. The qualities of true love here are crucial in having a love that gets deeper and stronger and more passionate over the years. Look for these qualities in your partner and try to become like this yourself.

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

4 사랑은 오래 참습니다. 사랑은 친절합니다. 사랑은 시기하지 않습니다. 사랑은 자랑하지 않습니다. 사랑은 교만하지 않습니다. 5사랑은 무례히 행동하지 않습니다. 사랑은 자기 유익을 구하지 않습니다. 사랑은 쉽게 성내지 않습니다. 사랑은 원한을 품지 않습니다. 6사랑은 불의를 기뻐하지 않고 진리와 함께 기뻐합니다. 7사랑은 모든 것을 덮어 주며, 모든 것을 믿으며, 모든 것을 소망하며, 모든 것을 견뎌 냅니다.

2) MAKE GOD #1 IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP: People who really put God first in their lives are much better marriage partners. This is NOT just going to church. A person who puts God first, really LIVES and FOLLOWS the relationships truths in the Bible (some are in #1 above). They will be patient, humble and kind. They will not be rude, proud or self seeking. They will sacrifice for you and they won’t reject your needs. They will admit their mistakes and try to change things that bother you because they love God AND you. They will look for ways to help you achieve your goals. They will never give up on you. These principles of God with God’s power in your life help relationships become MUCH stronger. ~50% of marriages end in divorce. But, if a man and woman go to church often, get married in a church, pray and read the Bible together, only 1 out of 1,105 of those marriages end in divorce.

3) MARRY SOMEONE WITH SIMILAR BELIEFS: It’s VERY important that you marry someone who believes the same way that you do or has similar morals and philosophy. Your beliefs affect your money choices. They affect how you spend your time. They determine the goals that you have. They affect what you teach your children and so much more. If your beliefs are not the same, there will be many arguments and a much higher chance for divorce. So, be sure to marry someone with very similar beliefs in moral/religious areas.

4) IMPROVE YOURSELF: Before you can date someone you need to become an interesting dating partner. How?

A) BECOME INTERESTING: To be an interesting and surprising person, you need to focus on improving abilities, knowledge and relationship skills. That means you need to read, listen a lot and talk to other people. Read in many IMPORTANT topics (not just comic books). Be informed about world events, issues, inventions, etc. Join a club. Join a church (or change to a new church) and go on church youth trips. Try out for a drama or musical group. Go to English cafes. Go to a new institute and learn a new skill. Try new sports games (great place to meet guys). Learn poetry.

B) BE INVOLVED IN LIFE: Jamie and Landon fall in love while in drama club together. In real life, this is often how people fall in love (many actors and actresses fell in love while making movies). So, don’t stay at home all the time. Get involved in many activities. Travel around your city, country and abroad when possible. Be active in student politics (or real politics). Join human rights campaigns. Do service activities. Help out at orphanages, hospitals, nursing homes. There are many things you can do. But, try many activities and try to say YES to most new activities and outings. You might meet the love of your life (.

C) TRIAL/ERROR: If you make a mistake, don’t repeat it. If you find something that works well, remember it and use it.

D) IMPROVE YOUR LOOKS: They say that you don’t get a 2nd chance to make a good first impression. Your mind is most important for sure. But, the fact is that many people will not want to know more about you if you look messy, dirty, lazy, disorganized, boring, etc. Your looks give people a hint about your character. So, think about how you can improve your appearance. Ask some friends to be honest with you. Try out a new hairstyle or new fashion styles. Become attractive and unique.

5) LOOK AT CHARACTER AND POTENTIAL: Sometimes it’s easy to look just on the surface and miss a great girl or guy. Some guys just looked at the old sweater Jamie wore and didn’t look any deeper. They lost out on dating a girl who was actually beautiful on the outside AND the inside. Looks can change and improve quite easily and there are more important things than good looks. Jamie looks at Landon & sees something special about him even though he has some bad qualities. She tells him, “You can be anything”. She believes he has potential & can do anything. Look at people deeply. Look at their potential, not just at their present. Believe in them.

6) EMOTIONAL INTIMACY: Another very important thing is your “chemistry”. Do you two have an emotional connection? Can you talk about things together easily? Can you be honest and open with the other person? Do you listen well to others? Don’t always be talking about yourself. Having deep, heart to heart communication is critical for good relationships. It’s very critical to be able to talk about your concerns and problems honestly and openly. Make this a priority.

7) MEET NEW PEOPLE: The principal tells Landon that he needs to find new friends. If you don’t have a girlfriend or boyfriend, don’t just wait for Prince Charming/Cinderella to fall into your lap. Try out some new activities that will help you meet new people. When you meet them, ask questions about their interests, their life experiences, etc. Share your own interesting stories, your passions, your difficulties, your successes, etc. Learn more about other people at every chance you have.

8) ASK OPEN ENDED QUESTIONS: Don’t just ask questions that people can answer with “yes” or “no”. Ask questions starting with “Why” and “How” & other WH questions. Be curious & ask questions that help you know the other person better.

9) MEMORIZE SOME JOKES: If you hear funny stories or funny stories happen to you, write them down and don’t forget them. If you know 5-10 really good jokes or funny stories, you will appear a lot more humorous to others.

10) MAKE EACH OTHER BETTER PEOPLE: Jamie inspires Landon to do better in school, to try harder, to have big dreams. Try to find someone who inspires you and someone who helps to make you a better person. Also, be a person who inspires the other person to dream and become a better person and improve their lives.

11) SERVICE/HELPING PARTNER TOWARDS GOALS: Landon helps Jamie to achieve several of her goals. This really helps their relationship to grow a lot. Do your best to help the person you love reach their goals. Look for ways to serve them and bring joy into their lives. If you find someone who will sacrifice for you, that’s a really great partner to have.

12) GIVE MEANINGFUL GIFTS: Landon hears about Jamie’s life goals. He helps her be in 2 places at once. He buys a tattoo for her. He buys & builds a telescope for her.

GOAL SETTING

DR. JOHN GODDARD is one of the world’s most famous explorers and adventurers. His philosophy from the age of 15 has been: "To dare is to do, to fear is to fail."

One day when he was 15 years old, he was bored. It was raining outside and there was nothing to do. Suddenly, he got an idea. He could write down a list of things he wanted to do in his life. He could write a list of life goals. He wrote for a long time. When he was done, he had written down 127 goals that he wanted to accomplish in his life. Some of them were easy and some were hard. Now he is over 70 years old and he has accomplished over 109 of these goals as well as over 400 other goals.

Here are some of the goals that John wrote down as a teenager (you can see the whole list on internet at ).

John didn't want his life to be just one of chance. He thought about what he wanted to experience very early in his life and wrote them down as goals. This helped him focus on what he wanted to accomplish and his life shows the power of setting goals for your life.

John has lived with and studied 260 cultures and tribes (head hunters, pygmies, hippies and others), He has climbed 12 of the world’s highest mountains, conducted 14 major expeditions, gone down 15 of the world’s most treacherous rivers including the Amazon and Nile (he was the first man to explore the whole Nile river). He has visited 120 countries. He has run a five minute mile. He has parachuted from planes. He has read the whole Bible and the encyclopedia cover to cover and many other books. He has followed the travels of Marco Polo through all of the Middle East, Asia and China. He has visited the Great Wall of China, the Taj Mahal in India, and climbed the Matterhorn (during a blizzard when even other professional climbers wouldn’t climb).

He was attacked by hippos and crocodiles. He has survived plane crashes and earthquakes. He was bitten by a diamondback rattlesnake and lived! He has faced death 38 times.

He has explored the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, the Red Sea, and more. He has flown 47 different kinds of airplanes. He set a civilian air-speed record of 1,500 miles an hour (2413.5 km/hr) and another record for flying to an altitude of 63,000 feet (19202.4 meters).

Goddard did not do these adventures just for excitement. The adventures were done to help add to our understanding of the world. He says, "Digging out the facts is the real challenge. The adventure is exciting and enjoyable--but secondary."

When asked what adventure was the most enjoyable and exciting, John said, “Oh, that's easy. It has to be my family -- my wife and five children."

Would you like to have a life of adventure like John did? It is possible. John says, "If you really know what you want out of life, it's amazing how opportunities will come to enable you to carry them out." He says that most people don’t accomplish very much because they don’t have clear goals.

The experiences and principles of people like John can help you too to live a useful and adventurous life!

Spend some time thinking about this and then write down at least 25 goals. Make sure to use some “want to” sentences, some future tense sentences and several present perfect sentences.

SPIRITUAL: I will read the Bible regularly. I will volunteer to help poor people for 1 year. I have determined to be honest about my mistakes and apologize quickly even when it’s hard.

RELATIONSHIPS: I want to marry an Eskimo, rub noses and have 12 children^_^!!! I have decided to be positive and encouraging. I have determined that I will be an incredible husband/wife.

EDUCATION: I want to study astronomy. I will learn how DNA works. I have chosen 50 cultures to study and learn about.

ADVENTURE: I will sky dive off a waterfall. I have decided to sail in a yacht around the world.

CAREER/FINANCIAL: I will be a doctor. I have planned to own a home in the country. I have decided that I will win a horse race.

SHARE: Every student stands up and tells the class 5-10 of your goals.

STEPS TO REACHING YOUR GOALS:

John Goddard writes in his book that setting goals has been “immensely rewarding” and “a daily blueprint for reaching toward an even more meaningful life and a higher level of happiness, growth and success.” How do you achieve your goals? In his book “The Survivor” (p. 243), John shared his method for achieving his goals.

1. WRITE THE GOALS DOWN: Making clear goals and visualizing yourself achieving them.

2. CREATE A PLAN: Write out the details that are necessary to achieve the goals you have made.

3. PREPARATION: Get the training and gather the materials or whatever you need to accomplish the goal.

4. PERSISTING & ACTION: Never Give up! If you have done 1-3, then it’s time to act and do it!

"Mark McCormack reported in his Success Secrets newsletter that 83% of Harvard School graduates had no goals 10 years after graduation; 14% had goals, but not in writing. The remaining three percent had written goals—and were earning 10 times as much as the group with no goals. Even the 14% whose goals were not in writing were earning three times as much as those graduates who had no goals at all."

(old/goals.htm)

Here are some other important principles that will help you in achieving your dreams: 

1. AIM HIGH: One proverb says, “Shoot for the stars. At least you’ll reach the moon.” Make high goals. They will challenge you and motivate you. You will always achieve more if you have high goals.

2. SATISFACTION: Make sure the goal you are working for is something you really want and will be satisfied with. H. Jackson Brown said, “Success is getting what you want.  Happiness is liking what you get.” Don’t make the mistake of wasting your life on a goal that you won’t enjoy. Many people choose goals of money, fame, education, fast cars, etc. But, when they achieve these goals, they are often disappointed. Many people believe that if they have just a few more things that they will be happy. But, satisfaction comes from relationships with people and with God and from service. This is why material goals are almost always unsatisfying. Make sure your goals improve your relationships with people and help them live better.

Albert Schweitzer wrote “The only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve.” Remember that as you choose your goals.

3. WRITE SPECIFIC DREAMS & VISUALIZE: Be specific in your dreams. Don’t just write “A new home". Write specifics like "A 4,000 square foot ranch house with 4 bedrooms and 3 baths and a view of the mountain on 200 acres of land.” This will help make it concrete in your mind.

Dream about your goals and imagine yourself reaching the goal. Put your written goals in a place where you can see them often. This will help you focus on them frequently and achieve them.

In 1953 researchers asked graduating class of Yale University if they had written goals. 3% of the graduates practiced goal setting and had clearly defined written goals. In 1973 the researchers found the same students and asked them about their financial status. The 3% who had written goals were worth more than all the other 97% combined. This is only in the financial area, but it shows clearly that clear and written goals will help you reach your goals and be a success.

4. LEARN SKILLS: Many dreams will require that you learn new skills. These may be learned in school, but many are learned in other places. You can learn by:

--GETTING IDEAS: From school, teachers, books, internet, libraries and other places, learn about how other people succeeded in areas similar to your dreams. Record useful ideas you find. Bill Gates and many famous people are voracious readers because reading is a source of ideas. Also, learn the principles that will help you succeed (see books like “The 7 habits of highly effective people”).

--VOLUNTEER/PRACTICE: Volunteer to help in places with similar work at home, church, school, businesses, etc. If can get paid for it, great! But, if not, volunteer to help out for a while.

Bill Gates liked computers and began programming at 13 years old.

Steven Spielberg wanted to be a movie director, so he volunteered in a movie studio in his free time and learned many tricks there. He started making home movies when he was 12 years old.

Florence Nightingale started taking care of sick animals when she was a young girl. Many famous people started learning and volunteering when they were very young, so start now!

5. BREAK IT INTO STEPS: A big dream may look impossible. But, if you break it down into small pieces, it’s much easier. Achieve many small steps and you achieve the big dream.

6. COMMITMENT/PERSEVERANCE/CONSISTENT: Make sure you keep your goals in a place that you can easily see and remember them. Do something toward these goals every day and every week. Perseverance and being consistent are more important than talent, education or genius.

”All successful men and women are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose.”  -Brian Tracy (M. Jordan said that other guys had more talent. But, he practiced constantly and so succeeded.)

7. PARTNER WISELY: If you need help, be very careful who you choose as a partner. Make sure your goals are clear and understood and make sure that your partners are passionate about them. If your partners are not passionate, at critical times, they may not be willing to commit money and time to your dreams and you will fail. If your goals are different, you either need to change goals or change partners.  Publilius Syrus said, “Where there is unity there is always victory.”

PROJECT OF WRITING OUT 3 GOALS AND HOW YOU WILL ACHIEVE THEM

John Goddard writes in his book that setting goals has been “immensely rewarding” and “a daily blueprint for reaching toward an even more meaningful life and a higher level of happiness, growth and success.” How do you achieve your goals? In his book “The Survivor” (p. 243), John shared his method for achieving his goals.

9. WRITE THE GOALS DOWN: Making clear goals and visualizing yourself achieving them.

10. CREATE A PLAN: Write out the details that are necessary to achieve the goals you have made.

11. PREPARATION: Get the training and gather the materials or whatever you need to accomplish the goal.

12. PERSISTING & ACTION: Never Give up! If you have done 1-3, then it’s time to act and do it!

Choose 3 of the 25 goals that you wrote down. Think about goals of people you know about and how they achieved them. Then write your goals in these 3 areas (and try to include 1-2 pictures of your goal or dream) and make sure to use ~5-10 PRESENT PERFECT sentences in it:

• DREAM: How did you get this dream? (Where did the inspiration come from?) What’s your dream in detail?

• RESOURCES NEEDED: What specific things do you need to learn or to get to reach that goal? What things have you finished already (use present perfect for these sentences. Some examples are underlined.)?

• COMMITMENT: What will you do this week, this month, this year toward reaching that dream?

EXAMPLE 1: DREAM—SKY DIVING

I have often dreamed about doing sky diving. Many people have wanted to fly like the birds and there are many ways to do this. If you’re in an airplane, you are flying, but you can’t feel the wind in your fast and you can’t feel how fast you are flying. It’s not the same to me. I want to feel all of the sky and wind. I want to feel like I’m flying. I want to be safe, but have the feeling of danger and excitement. So, I think sky diving will be a very exciting thing to do.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I will need to earn money for sky diving lessons and renting the airplane and parachute. I have saved $400 already, but I need $200 more dollars. I will need to learn about sky diving techniques and flying suits and parachutes. I have found a place where I can take sky diving classes. I am sure I will have many questions to ask, so I will need to find people who have done sky diving to help prepare me to do it myself.

COMMITMENT

How will I accomplish this? I will watch sky diving movies to get some basic ideas. I will get a part time job and I will take a class in sky diving as soon as I save enough money. Before that time, I will surf the internet at sky diving sites. If there are any sky diving websites I will join their e-mail lists and chats. In that way I can meet people who can answer my questions and give me useful ideas about sky diving. I will call information to find sky diving schools or clubs where I can learn about sky diving. I plan to sky dive before I am 35 years old.

EXAMPLE 2: DREAM--DOCTOR TO THE POOR

I read stories about Mother Theresa, Albert Schweitzer and many other doctors who did good work for people in poor countries. Albert Schweitzer was very smart and could have been a rich doctor in England. But, he chose to live in African for 30 years and saved many lives there. He also wrote several articles against nuclear weapons and received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952. His story really inspired me and so I want to do something similar. I think that if I work to help poor people, it will be very interesting to see how they are living. I will see their problems and their culture and what they do for fun. I will also feel that I have lived a useful life if I can help people like Schweitzer did.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I will need to go to medical school. I think I will specialize in pediatrics (children’s medicine). I have always wanted to help children a lot. Medical school is expensive so I will need a lot of money. My parents can help pay some, but I will need to get a job and make some money. I have found a part time job that will pay $500 a month. I have also taken courses in biology and physiology.

I will also need to learn about the body very well. So, I have found some medical textbooks about the about the body. I have also found internet sites that teach many things about the body. I will study those, videos and talk to friends who are doctors.

COMMITMENT

I will start working toward this dream by buying some books about doctors who helped people and reading them. I will also buy some books about the body and learn some of the basics of how it works. When I get to high school, I will volunteer to work in a hospital or at a country clinic for one summer. I will study my science classes very hard and if I meet doctors, I will talk to them and ask many questions and ask them their advice. I will look for internet sites and places where I can take classes about medical things.

I will also look agencies or places that need doctors to work in needy countries. Through these places and their contacts I can find many opportunities to help save lives. In these and other ways, I will work toward my dream of becoming a doctor and helping people be healthier and happier.

EXAMPLE 3: DREAM--LIVING IN FRANCE (well done homework by a DSU student, with improvements by Bryan Bissell)

I have liked art since I was young. One day, I saw France on the television. What I saw the sight of Paris in France, it was so elegant and it made me think, “That’s my style!” As I’ve grown up, I have become interesting in learning French because it sounds soft and graceful too. Also, I have searched for information which is concerned with France. What I really admire about the French lifestyle is their “tolerance”. Most of the French do not force their opinions on other people. They persuade other people with demonstrations if they want to convince someone. Therefore, as soon as I get the opportunity, I have decided to live for a few years in France and enjoy that lifestyle.

RESOURCES/DETAILS

I might need gigantic assets and certificates to live in France. I still have not saved any money, but I have studied French since 2008. (In my high school time, it was too difficult to study it because I had to prepare for the Korean SAT.) I will take a French test, Niveau DELF B2, in September in this year. I have found a place for studying French. I will go to L’Alliance Francais du Busan starting this month. I will save money to pay the expenses starting this month with a scholarship from E-zine (the English magazine of Dongseo University).

COMMITMENT

I already have books for studying for the French test. However, the problem is that there is not enough time to study French, so I have decided to study it in my free time between classes at school. I will join festivals or seminars in L’Alliance Francais du Busan in order to experience French culture. I will study French in various ways such as French movies, French books, and so on. By the time I graduate from university, I will get a certificate in French, the Niveau DALF C2 and TCF, and I will save money to support myself in France as soon as possible by working in internships or by doing holiday work in France until I can get a permanent job there.

GOOD HEALTH ARTICLE--It’s Your Choice and YOUR FUTURE

STORY: For 30 years, Marcus and his wife had saved their money carefully for their dream vacation. They were planning to take an amazing trip around the world to see the Great Wall of China, the Taj Mahal, the Eiffel tower and many others. They were looking forward to it with great anticipation. But, suddenly their dreams broke into pieces. Just a few weeks before his retirement, Marcus woke up with a sudden pain in his chest. An ambulance rushed him to the hospital. There he had to have triple bypass surgery. The surgery saved his life, but it wiped out all their families savings and he had to return to work with no hope of ever going on their dream vacation. What a tragedy! If only he had stopped smoking or exercises more or something. Now he sincerely wished that he had paid attention to the health principles that he had known.

Health. It’s something that we so often take for granted. We don’t realize how important it is until it’s gone. But, to understand a little of it’s importance talk to people who are close to dying. Queen Elizabeth said for example, “All my possessions for one moment of time”. Ask a person who is dying of cancer. Ask the parents of a child dying of leukemia. They you will begin to understand the importance of health. But, it is so much more than just living a long life. Health drastically affects life in many areas. In Marcus’ case, his bad health ruined his careful financial planning of 30 years (CNN reported in 2006 that bad health costs the average person $2,200 per year). Here are some of the other benefits that follow good health habits:

SOME BENEFITS OF GOOD HEALTH HABITS:

1. Adds many years to your life.

2. Helps you look more beautiful/handsome and younger.

3. Reduces aggression, crime and anger

4. Greatly reduces pollution/helps the environment

5. Helps solve the hunger problems in the world.

6. Helps you save money

7. Prevents many dangerous diseases.

8. Greatly reduces sicknesses (headaches, earaches, flu, stomachache, etc.),

9. Improves sexual enjoyment

10. Aids spiritual insight

11. It’s not cruel to animals.

12. Improves your attitude and helps avoid depression.

13. Helps reduce accidents.

14. Improves relationships.

15. Helps you lose weight easily.

16. Reduces pimples/acne.

17. Gives you higher energy.

18. Gives you better sleep.

19. Increases intelligence and grades by improving memory, etc.

20. Helps you think more clearly and make better decisions.

21. Give good health, mind and appearance to our babies/children.

22. Helps avoid mental diseases in children especially.

Health has an incredible range of effects on us. Some people think that you can’t change your health, but there is an enormous amount that you CAN do to give yourself good health and experience the above benefits and more. How do we know? Scientists compared the health of twins who had the same genes in the “Danish Twin Study”. They found that about 25 percent of how long we live is influenced by our genes. But, seventy-five percent, or the lion’s share, is determined by our lifestyle-something we choose.

So, Your Health is ~75%+ due to YOUR LIFESTYLE CHOICES!!

(referenced from National Geographic Magazine and )

The above 22 health benefits and more all come from these 10 ways to stay healthy: 1) Don’t smoke 2) Drink little or no alcohol and milk 3) Exercise & stay at a good weight 4) Eat breakfast 5) Be vegetarian or vegan 6) Get enough sleep & 7) Avoid seafood 8) Avoid milk 9) Avoid sugar& 10) Have faith in God.

Just changing a few habits can make a big difference. This report just came out from PLoS Medicine, news release, Jan. 7, 2008

“Researchers at the University of Cambridge and the Medical Research Council looked at 20,000 men and women, aged 45-79, who filled out a questionnaire about the four health behaviors…. People with four healthy lifestyle behaviors -- not smoking, physical activity, moderate alcohol consumption, and eating five servings of fruit or vegetables a day -- live an average of 14 years longer than people with none of those behaviors”.

It’s not just for our own health. It’s good for the planet too! For example, just one health habit, being vegetarian, can stop hunger, save the environment, add ~10 years to your life and stop cruelty to animals! Paul McCartney explains, "If anyone wants to save the planet, all they have to do is just stop eating meat. That's the single most important thing you could do. It's staggering when you think about it. Vegetarianism takes care of so many things in one shot: ecology, famine, cruelty."

LIFE SPAN: How old are you? 25, 50, 60? That’s your real age. But, you also have a health age. Your health age is the age of your body. You may be 25 years old, but your body is similar to a 35 year old person. Or you can be 70 and your body can be similar to a 50 year old. 50 would be your health age. Obviously, lower health ages are much better! Dr. Breslow, a professor from UCLA, did a study on 7,000 people for 9 years. He found out that if people followed 6-7 of these health habits, they would live 11.5 years longer on average (To find your health age, find your age and circle how many habits you follow. Then add (+) or subtract (-) the listed number from your real age. This is the age of your body.) What are the questions? Here they are:

LESSONS TO LEARN FROM “A WALK TO REMEMBER”

The movie “A Walk To Remember” is a touching & sad love story & it has several good lessons for us to think about in dating:

13) LOOK FOR TRUE LOVE: 2 times in the movie, characters read from the Bible love chapter, 1 Corinthians 13:4-7/고린도전서 13:4-7. The qualities of true love here are crucial in having a love that gets deeper and stronger and more passionate over the years. Look for these qualities in your partner and try to become like this yourself.

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

4 사랑은 오래 참습니다. 사랑은 친절합니다. 사랑은 시기하지 않습니다. 사랑은 자랑하지 않습니다. 사랑은 교만하지 않습니다. 5사랑은 무례히 행동하지 않습니다. 사랑은 자기 유익을 구하지 않습니다. 사랑은 쉽게 성내지 않습니다. 사랑은 원한을 품지 않습니다. 6사랑은 불의를 기뻐하지 않고 진리와 함께 기뻐합니다. 7사랑은 모든 것을 덮어 주며, 모든 것을 믿으며, 모든 것을 소망하며, 모든 것을 견뎌 냅니다.

14) MAKE GOD #1 IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP: People who really put God first in their lives are much better marriage partners. This is NOT just going to church. A person who puts God first, really LIVES and FOLLOWS the relationships truths in the Bible (some are in #1 above). They will be patient, humble and kind. They will not be rude, proud or self seeking. They will sacrifice for you and they won’t reject your needs. They will admit their mistakes and try to change things that bother you because they love God AND you. They will look for ways to help you achieve your goals. They will never give up on you. These principles of God with God’s power in your life help relationships become MUCH stronger. ~50% of marriages end in divorce. But, if a man and woman go to church often, get married in a church, pray and read the Bible together, only 1 out of 1,105 of those marriages end in divorce.

15) MARRY SOMEONE WITH SIMILAR BELIEFS: It’s VERY important that you marry someone who believes the same way that you do or has similar morals and philosophy. Your beliefs affect your money choices. They affect how you spend your time. They determine the goals that you have. They affect what you teach your children and so much more. If your beliefs are not the same, there will be many arguments and a much higher chance for divorce. So, be sure to marry someone with very similar beliefs in moral/religious areas.

16) IMPROVE YOURSELF: Before you can date someone you need to become an interesting dating partner. How?

A) BECOME INTERESTING: To be an interesting and surprising person, you need to focus on improving abilities, knowledge and relationship skills. That means you need to read, listen a lot and talk to other people. Read in many IMPORTANT topics (not just comic books). Be informed about world events, issues, inventions, etc. Join a club. Join a church (or change to a new church) and go on church youth trips. Try out for a drama or musical group. Go to English cafes. Go to a new institute and learn a new skill. Try new sports games (great place to meet guys). Learn poetry.

B) BE INVOLVED IN LIFE: Jamie and Landon fall in love while in drama club together. In real life, this is often how people fall in love (many actors and actresses fell in love while making movies). So, don’t stay at home all the time. Get involved in many activities. Travel around your city, country and abroad when possible. Be active in student politics (or real politics). Join human rights campaigns. Do service activities. Help out at orphanages, hospitals, nursing homes. There are many things you can do. But, try many activities and try to say YES to most new activities and outings. You might meet the love of your life (.

C) TRIAL/ERROR: If you make a mistake, don’t repeat it. If you find something that works well, remember it and use it.

D) IMPROVE YOUR LOOKS: They say that you don’t get a 2nd chance to make a good first impression. Your mind is most important for sure. But, the fact is that many people will not want to know more about you if you look messy, dirty, lazy, disorganized, boring, etc. Your looks give people a hint about your character. So, think about how you can improve your appearance. Ask some friends to be honest with you. Try out a new hairstyle or new fashion styles. Become attractive and unique.

17) LOOK AT CHARACTER AND POTENTIAL: Sometimes it’s easy to look just on the surface and miss a great girl or guy. Some guys just looked at the old sweater Jamie wore and didn’t look any deeper. They lost out on dating a girl who was actually beautiful on the outside AND the inside. Looks can change and improve quite easily and there are more important things than good looks. Jamie looks at Landon & sees something special about him even though he has some bad qualities. She tells him, “You can be anything”. She believes he has potential & can do anything. Look at people deeply. Look at their potential, not just at their present. Believe in them.

18) EMOTIONAL INTIMACY: Another very important thing is your “chemistry”. Do you two have an emotional connection? Can you talk about things together easily? Can you be honest and open with the other person? Do you listen well to others? Don’t always be talking about yourself. Having deep, heart to heart communication is critical for good relationships. It’s very critical to be able to talk about your concerns and problems honestly and openly. Make this a priority.

19) MEET NEW PEOPLE: The principal tells Landon that he needs to find new friends. If you don’t have a girlfriend or boyfriend, don’t just wait for Prince Charming/Cinderella to fall into your lap. Try out some new activities that will help you meet new people. When you meet them, ask questions about their interests, their life experiences, etc. Share your own interesting stories, your passions, your difficulties, your successes, etc. Learn more about other people at every chance you have.

20) ASK OPEN ENDED QUESTIONS: Don’t just ask questions that people can answer with “yes” or “no”. Ask questions starting with “Why” and “How” & other WH questions. Be curious & ask questions that help you know the other person better.

21) MEMORIZE SOME JOKES: If you hear funny stories or funny stories happen to you, write them down and don’t forget them. If you know 5-10 really good jokes or funny stories, you will appear a lot more humorous to others.

22) MAKE EACH OTHER BETTER PEOPLE: Jamie inspires Landon to do better in school, to try harder, to have big dreams. Try to find someone who inspires you and someone who helps to make you a better person. Also, be a person who inspires the other person to dream and become a better person and improve their lives.

23) SERVICE/HELPING PARTNER TOWARDS GOALS: Landon helps Jamie to achieve several of her goals. This really helps their relationship to grow a lot. Do your best to help the person you love reach their goals. Look for ways to serve them and bring joy into their lives. If you find someone who will sacrifice for you, that’s a really great partner to have.

24) GIVE MEANINGFUL GIFTS: Landon hears about Jamie’s life goals. He helps her be in 2 places at once. He buys a tattoo for her. He buys & builds a telescope for her. He marries her in the church of her dreams. Listen to your partner’s interests and goals. Watch their reactions carefully. Remember the things that they like or that they want to do. Then buy those gifts or do the activities that they are really interested in. This will really touch them and be memorable. These are the best kinds of gifts.

Playwright George Bernard Shaw first tried to become a vegetarian at age 25. Shaw's doctors warned him that the diet would kill him. When he was old and in good health, he was asked why he didn't go back and show them what good vegetarianism had done him. He replied, "I would, but they all passed away years ago."

"I'm 23 now, and I've grown into this woman. I feel sexy and more mature. I wanted these inside changes to be reflected in both my look and music. I am a vegan now, and it was a conscious decision. I studied a lot about African culture and health and the best way to take care of the body. I really wanted to be healthy. At first I was just trying to challenge myself; I thought it was a phase and that I would grow out of it, but it wasn't. I found out a lot about the body and what [hormones] they put in meat. My taste buds started changing, and I didn't crave [meat and dairy products] anymore." ()
