coordinates off- my sprite won't move to where I tell it to go

Lengthy title right? Any ways can someone help me here? I tell it to go some where and it goes somewhere completly different than where it's supposed to go. Does anyone have an idea what to do?!?!?!?!?!

Edit the costumes of the sprite so that the costume center is around the middle of the costume. You can change the costume center by pressing the "+" button in the bottom left corner of the Paint Editor.

Do you know about x position and y position?

If not, x position is how much far right a sprite is; in left-right movement.
Y position is how much far up a sprite is; in up-down movement.
