achieving his goal of becoming a

Roberto playing for the Pirates.
MY ACCOMPLISHMENT
My goal was to keep my eye on the baseball. When I
was hitting the baseball my dad told me to keep my eye
on the ball. I missed the ball a lot of times for about
maybe 2 or 3 hours but I kept trying and I didn’t give up
until I hit the ball. Now I can hit the ball without thinking
about keeping my eye on the ball. I reached my goal!
