What are some ways you can take initiative to achieve your goals?

Create realistic goals everyday, short and long term (i.e. waking up earlier by easing yourself into it, 30 minutes earlier one week, 1 hour earlier the next, etc.)

Find small ways to incorporate time and energy into said goal (want to be a better artist? draw your notes into pictures or think about how your day went and draw the most interesting that happened.)

Ask what makes you motivated to complete goals and utilize half of your energy into goal (don't use all of your energy unless you have the time or ability because you don't want to burn out too quickly.)

Explanation:

the aksumite empire was an ancient kingdom located in what is now northern ethiopia from the period of 100 ad to 940 ad. its capital was the city of aksum. the kingdom established itself as one of the 4 great powers at its time, along with persia, rome, and china.

the kingdom was rich in goods like gold, iron, and salt. it established strong commercial ties with the regions governed by rome, egypt, and persia (arabia). aksum was a key location in this commercial network. trade was also facilitated with the introduction of the aksumite currency.
