I was so close but I didn’t do it. I am going to try again this Monday to see if i can still enjoy these classes. I am really close, with luck I can do this thing even though I really just blew it off instead of trying my best last time.

How I did it: .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I smiled and did not open my mouth. I thought of a lot of things to say but I did not say them. I tried to listen to what other people said, biut I didn't let them know what I thought of it. I just smiled and nodded or said ok. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just kept talking that way and ignored everyone's complaints and kind of ran away so they could not hit me very hard. Soon they had promised me all sorts of nice things in exchange for never talking that way again. Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
Well it is depressing to see my goals from years ago when I do not take enough action to reach them. So please, self, do these things so you will not be depressed in a few years time:
1) work with Arabic writing book to improve handwriting- complete the book
2) Rosetta stone Arabic- complete level 1, 2 and 3
3) Use vocab books and grammar books
4) practice speaking
5) practice regularly
6) don’t slack off
7) don’t give up
What is wrong with me that i can have a goal like this for four years and not achieve it? There must be something more going on here than meets the eye. Is this something people work on constantly through life or am I just a big slobby loser? I must need help with this, it seems I am falling short for way too long. I will inshallah seek some sort of help here. Either with the cleaning itself or mental help in why I can’t reach a simple goal over such a long time frame.
