goals goal–a result; an achievement toward which effort is directed if values are the “why”…goals are the “what”…what we want, what we do, what we want to have most often goals are tangible objects or observable results
goal setting • goals should always be changing • long-term—raising a family; buying home • short-term—getting through the week • intermediate—2-5 years
goal setting as with values, people have many goals successful people can identify their goals and know which ones are most important prioritizing first identify, then prioritize—success is measured by your standards
goal setting standards are based on values—a measurable guideline or criteria
goal setting • standards are based on values—a measurable guideline or criteria • the “how” or “how much” of life • example: • eat a balanced diet (goal) • to stay healthy (value) • minimum of 7 grains, 3 veg • & 3 fruits
goal setting • groups & organizations have goals, values & standards as well • example: • highways built to • move people from • place to place (goal) • safely (value) • with speed limits • of 55-65 mph (standard)
goal setting close relationship between values, goals & standards acts as a check-and-balance system in setting goals, you are indirectly examining, reinforcing & strengthening your values… while also assessing validity of standards
goal setting individuals who base their goals and standards on their values develop to their fullest potential and live effectively in a changing world
goal setting easier for some than others some areas of life are easier to be goal-oriented in than others bottom line: knowing what you want and mapping out a plan to get there helps you to decide what to do next

participation activity • expanding brainstorming skills • (refer to pg. 43 in text for specifics) • write down as many ways as you can think of that an umbrella and tree are alike • in the next 3 minutes, write down as many different athletic sports as you can think of • in the next two minutes, write down as many ways as you can think of to use a metal fingernail file • Now get in groups of three—compare lists. Were there any similarities? Did you come up with even more ideas as you talked?
