    Why Goals are Important?
    Dream + Action Steps + Target Date = Goal
    Goals provide direction, a sense of accomplishment and
    they define your growth and development.

    1. Roadmaps - You would drive to Los Angeles without one?

    2. Recipes – Would you make the Thanksgiving dinner without them?

    Why go through life without goals?

    Goals are your roadmap


    for a successful education and life.

    3
    Goal Setting 101
    Clearly define the challenge facing you.
    What issue, problem or desire
    are you trying to change or achieve?

    Examples of misguided challenge definitions:


    Low grade in class – Teachers fault vs. lack of effort on your part?

    “I’m Bored!” – Too much TV time vs. joining a club or organization.

    4
    Goal Setting 101
    • It is very important to write down your Goal,
    Action Steps and Target Date

    • Use the positive, action-oriented words –


    I can and I will in your goal statement and
    with your action steps

    • Read your goal every day

    • Stretch your abilities


    5
    The Four Key Questions
    Establish your goals by answering these questions:

    1. Challenge Why do I want it?


    Define the desire or challenge facing you.

    2. Goal What do I want?


    Write down the goal you want to achieve.

    3. Action Steps How will I get it?


    Your specific action plan to reach your goal.

    4. Target Dates When do I want it?


    The completion date to reach your goal.

    6
    Dreams vs. Goals
    Goal Setting is like shooting an arrow.

    You may want to hit the target, but


    if you don’t take action – shooting the arrow –
    you only have a dream.

    The difference between a


    dream and a goal is ACTION.

    7
