Or use those gold stars your elementary school teachers put on your outstanding papers.
你也可以画上金色的星号,那是小学老师在批改你写得很好的作业时所打的记号。
Your accomplishment is outstanding,after all.

A log can help you reach goals,too.
作记录也可以帮你达到目标。
In pencil on a calendar,write down your goals a week or two in advance.

For example,if you plan to take a walk on Monday,Wednesday and Friday,write"walk"on those days.
如果你打算星期一、三、五去散步,就在那些日期上写下“散步”两个字。
After each day's walk,circle the word in red and pat yourself on the back.You said you'd do it and you did!
每次散完步后就用红笔把“散步”两个字圈起来,鼓励一下自己。因为你要做的事已经完成了!
