Goal Setting

I thought that last week's session on goal setting was very helpful. I have always been good at setting goals and reaching them following a set plan. However, this year, I have had some difficulty with this. I realized that some of the problem resulted because my goals were too unattainable. Also, in some cases, I wasn't taking the proper steps to achieve them. After learning more about goal setting in class, I will always make SMART goals from now on to better my chances of success.

Yes, goals are a great way to focus yourself. Remembering to set goals that match your values and skills is important. Your point about "attainable goals" reminds me of goals I set that are not really goals but actions I either have to take anyway or things that I can't conceivably accomplish in a given time frame.

It will be interesting to see how your goal statements look in your learning plan.
