Ninja Goals

Grandma Lucy made a very detailed book about ninjas for Xander this Halloween, since he is dressing up as a ninja. I just read him a passage about ways to increase personal power and reach goals. Xander asked if they were soccer goals. I tried to explain what abstract goals are: "I have a goal to speak very nicely to Xander. If I say, 'Hi, Xander! How are you?' am I reaching my goal, what I wanted to do?" He said yes. Then he told me, without hesitation, "My goal is to speak badly to bad guys. 'Go away! Or I will beat you dead!'"
