What’s Zikrintember Up To?

On October 21, 2009, in Fun Fiction, Motivating Stories, by Bonnie Jean Schaefer

It’s Weirdo Friends Day!

Welcome to another wacky, totally fictional interview of a ‘Weirdo Friend.’ Today’s story features Zikrintember Onthom, no big dream yet. (Video of this interview is coming soon…)

We met Zikrintember a few weeks ago and learned she doesn’t know what her big dream is yet. Remember, she is a little shy. After all, she does have 11 older brothers and sisters and 43 cousins who all live on the same street as her family.

Before she started playing The Champion Creator Game, she felt overshadowed and invisible and unsure of what she wants.

Let’s check in with her on Day 30 of the game and see if she’s learned anything about who she is and what she wants.

ZIKRINTEMBER: Ummmmm….hi.

Bonnie Jean: Has playing The Champion Creator Game helped you figure out what you’re passionate about?

ZIKRINTEMBER: Uh huh.

Bonnie Jean: Will you tell us?

ZIKRINTEMBER: Oh. Okay. Well…I learned I like to investigate stuff. I like to follow clues to solve mysteries…or do experiments to figure out how things work. So my big dream is to be a police detective, an FBI Agent or a scientist. I still haven’t decided.

Bonnie Jean: Why will you keep playing The Champion Creator Game?

ZIKRINTEMBER: I like belonging to the Dream Doer League. Nobody laughs at me even though I get nervous when I have to talk to people.

I also want to learn how to be a good goal setter now that I actually have things I want. This makes setting goals fun and easy.

You might find this silly…but my goal for Day 60 is to set a goal for Day 90…I’m done talking now. Can I go?

*****

We’ll check back in with Zikrintember in several weeks to see if she’s able to hit her Day 60 target. She does have a few weird quirks (which you’ll be able to see in the video of the interview that’s coming soon), but as long as she follows through with the missions, she’ll be able to find a way to do what she dreams.

Weird quirks or not, you can find a way to do what you dream, too. Life is really much more fun when you set goals and take action to make them happen. So…

Join the Dream Doer League. Play The Champion Creator Game. And DO what you DREAM!

To Your Dreams,
Bonnie Jean
