Michael Jordan is one of the best basketball players of all time. Like all athletes, he had dreams. He achieved them by setting goals—both short-term and long-term. In his autobiography, I Can’t Accept Not Trying: Michael Jordan on the Pursuit of Excellence, he speaks about short-term goal setting. Read the excerpt to see how he set these goals and what he did when he achieved them.
I approach everything step by step ... I had always set short-term goals. As I look back, each one of the steps or successes led to the next one. When I got cut from the varsity team as a sophomore in high school, I learned something. I knew I never wanted to feel that bad again ... So I set a goal of becoming a starter on the varsity. That’s what I focused on all summer. When I worked on my game, that’s what I thought about. When it happened, I set another goal, a reasonable, manageable goal that I could realistically achieve if I worked hard enough ... I guess I approached it with the end in mind. I knew exactly where I wanted to go, and I focused on getting there. As I reached those goals, they built on one another. I gained a little confidence every time I came through.
What lessons in Jordan’s description apply to anyone who is trying to achieve a goal? Identify two examples and examine why they’re relevant to any goal.
Answer:
he set goals and take things step by step
Explanation:
they was reasonable, manageable and was realistically achieved meaning anyone could do it. if u get ahead of yourself you're destined to fail and/or mess up.
Answer:
You have to try to achieve. If you don't try you might as well not set a goal in the first place. This applies to any other goal because is it really that important to you if you don't try?

Students who exercise feel happier and more confident in their abilities.
Students who have more recess will have no behavior problems in the classroom.
Most teachers surveyed support the need for more recess time for their students.

What do you think are Paylor's motives in allowing Katniss to come face to face with Snow?
AKA: Hunger Games
Answer:
{hello kirito here i believe your answer is}-
Explanation:
Commander Paylor's early life is unknown, however, as a resident of District 8, she most likely worked in the district's textile factories like most other citizens.
Katniss first meets Paylor when she goes to District 8's hospital in order to film a propo for the Airtime Assault on the Capitol. Paylor takes Katniss along with Gale Hawthorne, Boggs, and the TV crew into the hospital. Paylor watches Katniss closely, to see what she is made of and if they have been right to count on her.
Paylor in District 8.
After Katniss leaves the hospital, hovercrafts from the Capitol fly in and begin to bomb the hospital. In an effort to fight against the bombers, Katniss and Gale climb to the roof of a warehouse that has machine gun nests. This is where they run into Commander Paylor again. Together, they all work to destroy the other waves of hovercrafts that fly overhead.
Commander Paylor later returns in the story when Katniss is living in President Snow's mansion, awaiting his execution. Katniss follows the strong scent of Snow's roses until she finds a room that is being guarded by two soldiers who at first do not permit her entrance to the room because they are following President Coin's orders. However, when Paylor appears, she instructs the soldiers to let Katniss go in and they obey her authority. Katniss enters to find President Snow and the two of them have a brief conversation. Snow informs Katniss that it was not him who bombed the children and ultimately killed Prim, but that instead it was President Coin who was behind it. When Katniss emerges, Paylor asks her, "Did you find what you were looking for?", and Katniss holds up rose, which Paylor takes as an affirmative response. This seems to imply that Paylor was somehow aware of Coin's betrayal and wanted Katniss to find out.
