I have one big goal that brings up a lot of small goals. I want to better myself and be successful. I have put a lot of these goals in to play and they are working so far. Before now I almost screwed up my whole life, I dropped out in eighth grade left my moms to be homeless and do what I wanted,and smoked meth every day.
#1 Avoid smoking meth.
Meth is a messed up drug. I lost 50 pounds when I was in that crap. And it screwed my life up in other aspects, I didn't give a damn about any thing and I didn't want to change any thing. So for me to be successful I have to avoid tweak so that I can be productive.
#2 Stay in school.
Right now I'm in school and doing good at it. I'm in eleventh and it's the first time I been in school since eighth. But I am still doing good. I've been on honor roll and been student of the week. The only problem I have with school is going,when I do go I do good. That's why I have the goal of staying in school.
#3 Get a job.
This is pretty obvious but it is very productive for me. It fills my time up with something besides boredom. When I get bored that's when I make my worst decisions. Having some spending money will probably help me stay out of trouble too.
#4 physical health.
When I was tweaking I lost a lot of weight. When I first got locked up I was 110 pounds now I'm back up to 150. I want to stay healthy because it's like I'm erasing some of the effects from my drug use.
#5 Don't fake it.
I've been in a lot of programs and I always faked it. If I wouldn't have faked it then I wouldn't be in the position I'm in. If I fake it this time I'm just going to get in trouble again.

I like your first goal it's a hard one to do. keep your head up.
Damien, I'm shocked to hear you missed so many years of school. You're extremely bright and pick up information quickly. Keep working hard. I'm impressed with you and I'm glad you're in my class.:) -Stacy, health teacher
Good job on your goals bro, my mother did meth for awhile and she continued to relapse over and over until she got into deep crap. I can realate to not wanting to stay in school, but if I don't then I know I will go pretty much no where and end up in a bad situation. Getting a job somewhat realates to school, you'll maybe get a job but won't progress in anyway without an education. I am glad you got those goals, and if your health is good then you can live longer and injoy life. I enjoyed reading your assignment it's pretty radical and hits the real side of life, remember this and you'll live a chill life.
Those are good goals. If you need a jod pappa John is highering in Orem. Stay in school it's boring and pointless yes but it helps. Hope you become a big secsess.
