Recently an old friend phoned me to ask about the success I had in my life and how I achieved it. He has 1 goals as me: get in shape, get into music more seriously, and be good at Japanese.
I haven't completely reached my long-term goals yet in any of these 3 things. He thinks that I've made some progress on my journey to 2 these goals and I can give him some advice.
We had a nice talk for an hour on the phone and he seemed pretty encouraged. A week went by and he sent me photos of him learning 3 and music. He also trained with the help of a personal fitness coach. He developed the habit of posting (发布) 4 online all of the progress he was making. He was doing great. Every weekend he would post his new progress and I really enjoyed reading it!
Of course, I'll have to let him know that making progress isn't 5 . He'll meet some difficulties on the road. However, I'm letting him 6 the new achievements now and will help him out when that time comes.
I'm thankful for him giving me the chance to serve him and give him 7 , and I'm thankful to see that he's spending the time and money to 8 his life. He has even told me how thankful he is with all the recent 9 in his life.
Even if you haven't reached your goals, it's good to 10 how far you've gone. Be proud of yourself and know how much you can help others achieve the same.
