9-28-2004 Focus Journal

Jillian's Focus Journal came in today's mail. She loved it! The best part is that she can chart her daily progress and see how her energy level and attitude really do affect her practice. Today she set one of her goals to make 10 giants over the pit. After practice she will write in the actual number she makes. This book also gives her guidance in setting big goals and small ones. She can watch her small goals lead her to larger ones. What a great lesson! And she seems so receptive to it. I think she is at a good age (10) for enjoying this sort of record keeping. Her long term goal was to be written in first person as if it had already happened. Hers read, " It is September 2008 and I am a Level 10 gymnast".
