One Step Closer by Setting Goals

Here are a few of my goals for the next few months!

1. Keep practicing and try to get a role in STARS2000 Production of Hairspray! Auditions were last week and I got called back to sing for the role of Wilbur on March 18th. I need to keep rehearsing his song, "You're Timeless to Me" and impress the audition panel! This goal is short term (and it has a date to it), and it is possible if I set my mind to it and practice a lot. Plus, if I don't get a role I still have a very high chance of being part of the ensemble!
UPDATE: I went to call backs tonight and sang and danced for Wilbur and they called me back again to read for him tomorrow! I am currently up against 1 other guy and the show is going to be double cast... That means I have a large chance of getting the part!

2. Next, I need to start applying for jobs and try to find one that will work with my schedule if I get cast for Hairspray over the summer. With the help of IQuest I already have my resume and now I just have to enter my information and hopefully impress the managers during an interview. I want to try and shoot for a job by the end of the school year and if that doesn't happen at least find some other way of earning money. This goal fits all of the Qualifications to be a S.M.A.R.T. goal!

3. My last goal is to try to cut down on fast food. I go out to lunch all the time because I'm a senior and we can but that is no excuse for eating so poorly. My goal is to try to spend more time learning to cook, which will be helpful for college, and making healthier lunches. I will still go out and eat bad things but I am setting my goal to try to reduce this. This goal can even help me get healthier by losing weight. To make this goal fit the SMART qualifications I need to try to keep track of how much I eat out week by week, or even every 2 weeks, and decide how much I can have accordingly.
