Goal Setting Is Important
“Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass.” This philosophical wisdom by John Ruskin, one of the greatest British writers, tells us that goal setting is extremely important in life.
Why is goal setting so important? The main importance of goal setting is that it provides us with direction and purpose. When we have goals, we know what we want to achieve so that we can focus our mindson a single worthwhile target and avoid getting distracted easily. Personal goal setting also provides us with motivation to achieve what we want to achieve.
Goal setting is of especial significance for today’s students. A study reveals that when students set goals, they learn the importance of taking responsibility, of minimizing excuses and of
helping others. Goal setting is a lifelong skill that first helps students succeed in school and then later in life.

Shopping through Media
With the development of science and technology, it is much more common for people to buy goods through different kinds of media than before. People can buy things such as computers and necklaces through TV, radio, the Internet, etc.
Shopping through media is welcomed by most people due to various reasons. From the perspective of consumers, it can save time for people who don’t have much spare time. For retailers, it can cut costs for those without much circulating funds. However, there are still some defects in shopping through media. First, compared with face-to-face deal, it seems less reliable and trustworthy. Second, people will lose the fun of bargaining.
In my view, although shopping via media brings great convenience to us, we still should be brings great convenience to us, we still should be careful when we “go shopping” through media. We
should check the information released by the media. Only in this way can we fully enjoy the convenience brought by media shopping without the concern of being cheated.

On Cosmetic Surgeries
In recent years, there have appeared more and more artificial beauties around us. Not only those actresses but also many ordinary women are crazy about cosmetic surgeries. They fail to resist the temptation of becoming more beautiful by changing some parts of their bodies within a few hours’ surgery.
What are responsible for the prevalence of cosmetic surgeries? Firstly, thanks to the development of shaping techniques, the chances of successful surgeries have increased greatly, which makes more people begin to believe and accept cosmetic surgeries. Secondly, with the improvement of living standard, people have more money to satisfy their nature of pursuing beauty.
From my point of view, cosmetic surgeries have their necessity of existence in modern society. They do help some people build confidence by giving them a beautiful face or figure. However, cosmetic surgeries cannot bring permanent beauty and might be dangerous. Besides, I think one’s inner beauty is more important. Therefore, I suggest that people should think twice before deciding to accept cosmetic surgeries.
