Dreams and Goal Setting
On November 6th in management class, we had an exercise of discussing our goals and dreams. At first, I found it hard to list 17 dreams on post-it notes, because I thought of dreams as something very vague and hard to achieve. However, after listening to other classmate’s dreams and professor lecture, I realized that dreams can be much more specific. After realizing that, I personally categorized my dreams and goals to short–term and long-term goals. I learned that both short-term and long-term goals are equally important; I saw my short-term dreams as steps towards my lifelong dreams. For example, one of my short-term goals was to graduate from college and one of my long-term dreams was to become a CEO of a company. In order to get my dream job, diploma was initial step to reach the goal. Sitting in the class and looking over my dreams I realized that I was only focusing on short-term goals. In future, I should often have my own time when I can think about my lifelong dream as well.
