In a previous article, I declared this summer as my summer.

One of the ways I am making the most of the summer of 2021 is by setting and accomplishing goals that I created at the beginning of the summer. While I've had New Year resolutions this whole year, I have a shorter time to accomplish my summer goals. Summer goals encourage me to have more drive than New Year's goals. It also makes accomplishing New Years' Eve resolutions easier to accomplish because I get used to following through with accomplishing goals.

Whenever you set goals, it's important that you actually try to accomplish the goal instead of just wishing that it will happen.

The best things in life don't just happen without effort and time. That's the thing about self-care and wanting to do things in life. Life isn't a movie. You don't randomly get a promotion or overcome your depression. Those things take work, and even then, you might not get what you want. It is important to remember that it's okay to set a goal or expectation of yourself and fall short. At least you tried your best to make it happen.

As Brian Tracy once said, "A goal without a plan is only a dream."

In order to hold myself accountable and to help others accomplish their goals, I'm sharing mine. Here are my six summer goals for 2021.

I hope to accomplish my summer goals, but writing them down is the first step!
