What
are
your
big
dreams
in
life
Perhaps
your
goal
is
to
have
a perfect
body
complete
a
marathon
or
become
a
best selling author
However
despite
having
a
strong
will
to
achieve
these goals
you
may
find
yourself
giving
up
after
just
a
few
days

Why
Do
I
Keep
Failing
to
Achieve
My
Goals

Most
of
the
time
we
focus
on
our
big
goals
Big
goals
are
easy
to visualize
We
can
imagine
ourselves
feeling
satisfied
in
front
of the
mirror
smiling
at
the
finish
line
or
signing
our
books
for
our fans
These
big
goals
give
us
direction
and
purpose
in
our
daily lives
However
you
should
be
careful
that
you
don t
bite
off more
than
you
can
chew
Rather
than
helping
us
big
goals
can tempt
us
to
make
unrealistic
changes
to
our
lives
For
example imagine
that
one
day
you
decide
to
slim
down
like
a
supermodel For
one
week
you
push
yourself
far
too
hard
at
the
gym
You injure
your
leg
and
need
to
take
two
weeks
off
to
recover
In
the end
you
gain
weight
instead
of
losing
it

Think
of
the
little
habits
that
make
up
your
day
stretching
in the
morning
feeding
your
pet
or
brushing
your
teeth
after meals
These
are
small
actions
that
you
do
every
day
and
over time
they
form
consistent
patterns
The
problem
is
that
these routines
don t
start
feeling
automatic
until
you
have
done them
numerous
times
Before
they
become
automatic
you
have to
put
in
a
lot
of
effort
to
start
them
Moreover
the
bigger
a
task seems
the
more
effort
it
requires
and
the
less
likely
you
are
to complete
it

For
example
you
may
say
I m
going
to
run
ten
kilometers every
day
However
that
is
a
big
and
sudden
change
So
it
is likely
that
your
passion
will
fade
and
you
will
quit
in
a
few
days The
better
approach
is
to
start
gently
with
small
changes
and build
up
gradually
That
is
you
say
I m
going
to
get
off
the
bus one
stop
early
and
run
home
every
day
You
will
get
used
to running
every
day
and
soon
you
might
want
to
run
more
One day
you
will
find
yourself
running
ten
kilometers

KAKAO : 오답노트 Change
Your
Lifestyle
Not
Your
Life

To
attain
your
goal
you
should
focus
on
changing
your
lifestyle not
changing
your
life
For
instance
writing
a
best selling
novel would
be
life changing
practicing
creative
writing
for
ten minutes
every
day
would
be
a
new
type
of
lifestyle
Can
you
see the
difference
The
former
is
great
for
inspiring
and
guiding
you but
you
might
feel
it
is
out
of
reach
On
the
other
hand
the
latter starts
small
Nonetheless
if
you
repeat
it
daily
it
will
eventually help
you
achieve
your
goal

Changing
your
life
is
a
big
deal
However
changing
your
daily habits
is
something
small
you
can
do
The
tinier
your
habit
the easier
it
is
to
stick
to
To
be
stronger
and
healthier
eat
one
extra serving
of
vegetables
at
every
meal
To
become
more knowledgeable
read
one
page
of
a
book
before
bed
One
day you
will
find
yourself
becoming
the
person
you
always
wanted
to be
Remember
it
is
not
big
goals
but
daily
habits
that
make
your big
dreams
come
true

We
need
big
dreams
to
keep
our
lives
meaningful
However
if we
become
obsessed
only
with
big
dreams
we
may
wake
up
one day
thinking
This
is
overwhelming
I
should
have
started
with the
little
things
What
is
your
big
dream
From
there
make
a goal
for
this
year
Then
make
a
goal
for
this
week
Start
with
one manageable
action
a
day
Ask
yourself
What
is
one
thing
I
can do
today
to
take
a
step
toward
achieving
my
big
dream

KAKAO : 오답노트 Dear
Dr
Alice

My
best
friend
is
smart
funny
and
beautiful
Whenever
we
are together
she
gets
everyone s
attention
I
know
it s
not
her
fault but
I
always
compare
myself
to
her
and
feel
bad
How
can
I overcome
my
jealousy
toward
her

Sincerely Michelle

Dear
Michelle

Comparing
yourself
to
others
may
leave
you
feeling
sad
That s because
we
often
compare
the
worst
aspects
of
ourselves
to
the best
aspects
of
others
However
you
should
keep
in
mind
that nobody
has
it
all
We
are
all
individuals
with
unique
looks personalities
and
talents
Therefore
make
an
effort
to
see
the good
things
in
your
life
and
be
grateful
for
them
When
you
start to
admire
and
appreciate
yourself
your
envy
toward
your
best friend
will
naturally
disappear
Most
importantly
stop
viewing life
as
a
competition
Another
person s
success
doesn t
mean
you are
failing
Try
to
see
other
people s
good
news
as
something
to celebrate
Then
their
happiness
will
add
to
yours

Best

Alice

본문 2 2 Ask Alice Advice for Teens

KAKAO : 오답노트 Dear
Dr
Alice

I
stay
up
late
every
night
to
study
However
my
grades
don t reflect
my
effort
I m
starting
to
feel
stressed
and
frustrated
with myself
After
every
exam
I
think
I
should
have
studied
harder What
can
I
do

Yours
truly Henry Dear
Henry

Clearly
you
are
studying
hard
but
I m
afraid
that
your
strategy of
staying
up
late
at
night
won t
help
you
In
fact
long
study sessions
do
not
always
guarantee
good
grades

The
secret
to
effective
studying
lies
in
putting
forth
the
right kind
of
effort―the
how
of
studying
rather
than
the
how much
We
all
have
different
learning
styles
For
example
some people
learn
best
not
by
reading
but
by
listening
Others
learn best
by
writing
down
the
things
they
learn
Try
some
different study
methods
and
find
the
most
suitable
one
for
you
Also
if you
sit
for
hours
trying
to
absorb
a
lot
of
information
your
brain will
become
exhausted
and
you
won t
be
able
to
remember everything
Make
sure
you
take
time
to
rest
and
review
your work
when
you
feel
refreshed

Warm
wishes Dr
Alice

KAKAO : 오답노트 Dear
Dr
Alice

These
days
my
relationship
with
my
parents
has
changed
They rarely
seem
to
agree
with
me
so
we
fight
more
What s
worse my
parents
don t
see
me
as
a
mature
person
I m
sick
of
arguing with
them
and
I m
sure
my
parents
feel
the
same
I
want
to
fix this
problem

Sincerely
yours Jinho Dear
Jinho

Feeling
grown
up
but
being
treated
like
a
child
is
challenging
so the
adolescent
years
can
be
hard
If
you
want
to
communicate well
with
your
parents
try
the
following
tips

First
when
you
have
a
conversation
with
them
start
by
saying You
are
right
This
shows
your
parents
that
you
value
their point
of
view
Also
it
might
help
to
spend
some
time
thinking about
your
main
points
and
writing
them
down
Having
an organized
argument
ready
will
help
you
remain
calm
and focused
In
addition
whatever
you
do
don t
get
upset
and
start yelling
at
your
parents
Instead
show
them
that
you
are
capable of
having
a
mature
discussion
In
these
ways
you
can
be
seen
as a
mature
person
and
you
can
also
reduce
the
level
of
conflict with
your
parents

Warm
regards
Dr
Alice
