Goals
Today’s exercise in my management 250 class prompted me to think about the difficulties I’ll have writing part two of the learning plan. Most people seemed to have no problem listing 17 future goals, but I ended up writing things like “hug a koala” on about half of the Post-it notes given. Of course I identified the obvious goals involving jobs and internships, but unlike some of my classmates, I had very few personal or lifestyle ambitions.
As indicated by a learning personality test taken earlier in the semester, I dislike set plans. School and work require structure and planning, but I prefer flexibility for most other things. Generally, I don’t care enough about creating my own family or owning a house to set goals. It’s unusually difficult to change nonexistent “dreams into deadlines”.
