This workbook is designed ①to help you set meaningful goals for the new year. First, turn to page one and write down one goal ②that you truly want to achieve this year. Next, complete the reason section by ③explain why this goal matters to you. On page two, break your goal into four smaller monthly steps, ④using the space provided for each month.

Starting a new diary or planner in January is easy, but keeping it useful all year is harder. This guide offers simple tips for ①using a planner to manage your New Year goals. First, write one clear goal at the top of each month so you always remember your main target. Second, break that goal into small weekly tasks ②instead of writing vague plans. Third, check your planner every morning and mark tasks as done when you finish them. In addition, leave a small space each day for a short note about how you felt. Reviewing this space every Sunday ③help you notice patterns in your habits. Finally, do not worry if you skip a day, since staying consistent ④matters more than being perfect. These habits can turn your planner into a powerful tool ⑤for reaching your goals.

Every January, our school invites a graduate ①to share advice, and last week a former student named Minho visited our class. Three years ago, he was a shy sophomore ②who dreamed of becoming a science teacher but doubted his own grades. Instead of ③studying everything at once, he focused on one weak subject each month and asked his teachers for extra help. He also found a study partner ④shared the same goal, and they checked each other's progress every week. Today, Minho is studying to become a science teacher at university, ⑤proving that steady effort truly pays off.

Air conditioners make summer days more comfortable, but ①using them incorrectly can harm your health. Doctors recommend keeping the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures within five or six degrees, ②which helps your body adjust more easily. A larger gap forces your body ③to adjust constantly, which can weaken your immune system. This sudden change often ④lead to symptoms such as headaches and fatigue. It is also helpful ⑤to open a window for a few minutes every hour.

Many students wonder why club activities ①matter so much for their school life record, a document that summarizes what a student did during each semester. Whenever students take part in a club, their teacher writes a short note describing what role they played and how they grew. For example, a student who organized a club exhibition might be described as someone who showed ②strong leadership and creativity. These notes are not simply a list of activities; they explain the process behind each achievement. Therefore, admissions officers at universities read the record carefully to understand a student's ③genuine interests, not just their grades. In contrast, a club membership with no real participation rarely leaves a ④meaningful impression. This is why teachers encourage students to take a ⑤passive role rather than joining a club only for its name.

Willpower is like a muscle that becomes ①tired after being used too much, so people often run out of self-control by the end of a busy day. Many resolutions are unrealistic from the beginning, since people set goals that are far too ②easy to reach in a short time, and when a goal feels impossible, people quickly ③lose motivation and stop trying. Most resolutions do not offer any ④immediate reward, so people find it hard to stay motivated without seeing fast results. Understanding these reasons can help people design goals that are more ⑤realistic and rewarding.

More and more teenagers today dream of starting their own business someday. This growing interest is partly due to the internet, which makes it ①easy to reach customers without a physical store. Starting a small business also teaches skills that traditional classes rarely offer, such as ②managing money, marketing a product, and handling customer complaints. However, young entrepreneurs face real ③challenges too. Many lack enough money or experience to make their business grow quickly, and mistakes can feel ④encouraging at first. Still, most teen entrepreneurs say that failure taught them more than any success did, and schools now offer entrepreneurship clubs to support these ⑤beginners.

On the first day of winter break, my friend Yuna and I sat in a cafe and talked about the new year ahead. Instead of making separate plans, we decided that ___________. Yuna wanted to improve her English speaking, while I wanted to wake up earlier every morning, and we agreed to text each other every night to report what we had done that day.

Have you ever wondered why some people stay motivated while others give up quickly? The answer often lies in ___________. When people have no specific goal, they usually feel confused about where to start, and their interest fades within days. For example, a student who simply decides to study harder this year often loses direction because the plan is too vague. In contrast, a student who sets a clear goal, such as raising an English score by ten points, knows exactly what to do every day. This clarity creates strong motivation because the brain naturally focuses on a clear target. Setting a specific goal is one of the most effective ways to build lasting motivation.
