  1. 11PEH “Making a change for better Well-being”

  2. TASK 2 Developing an Action Plan using SMART principles Students will complete an Action Plan using SMART principles to achieve their overall goal identified in Task 1. You will use your collage to distinguish an area of your Hauora that needs improvement and create a goal around this.

  3. GOALS Goals can be short term, e.g ….. Goals can be long term, e.g ….. Goals can be daily routines, e.g ….. When setting individual goals, it is important that they are SMART.The SMART acronym is a guide to what effective goal setting must include.

  4. SMART principles Specific Measurable Achievable Realistic Time frame

  5. Specific Specific to your issue!! A specific goal has a much greater chance of being accomplished than a general goal. You should think about the following when creating your goal: Who:     Who is involved? What:    What do I want to accomplish? Where:  Identify a location. When:    Establish a time frame. Which:   Identify requirements and constraints. Why:      Specific reasons, purpose or benefits of accomplishing the goal.

  6. Specific A specific goal is not: “Get in shape” A specific goal is: “Join a health club and work out 3 days a week”

  7. Measurable You can measure progress and achievement You need to be able to see, recognise or experience the changes When you measure your progress, you stay on track, reach your target dates, and experience sense of achievement that encourages you on to continued effort required to reach your goal. To determine if your goal is measurable, ask questions such as......How much? How many? How will I know when it is accomplished?

  8. Achievable You need to be able to actually do the tasks It needs to be something you will be able to succeed Capable of being done or carried out

  9. Realistic Don’t make the goal so big that it will never be achieved It must be something in which you are willing to work towards You need to truly believe that it can be accomplished Ask yourself what conditions would have to exist to accomplish this goal When we set unrealistic goals we cannot achieve such goals because of the limitations of what we can actually do.

  10. Time frame Set a reasonable time frame If there is no time frame it is likely the goal will not be achieved. It will give you something (date) to work towards. You can plan/schedule your action around this time E.g. May 30th, two weeks, one month

  11. Other tips for goal setting It is stated in a positive way. For example: “I will..." not, "I might“ or "I hope.." Observe the progress you have made to working towards your goal.

  12. Additional considerations Some additional considerations when setting goals to increase their likely effectiveness are: Time avaliable Cost Family, school and other commitments Resources (things) needed

  13. An example of a SMART goal “I will improve my physical well-being by drinking at least six glasses of water every day and decreasing my soft-drink intake to no more than two drinks per week for the next month” S – I will improve my physical well-being M – Six glasses of water and no more than two fizzy drinks A – Yes, this is achievable R – Yes this is realistic T – The next month

  14. Barriers Barriers are things that either slow you down, get in your way or stop you altogether from achieving your goal A barrier is someone or something that can hinder (get in the way of) a person carrying out a task In goal setting barriers include a lack of time, commitment, support or motivation, poor weather, distractions.

  15. Overcoming Barriers To overcome barriers we first need to identify them. Once we have identified actual (potential) barriers, we can take action to make sure we have the skills, motivation and support to remove or overcome the barriers.

  16. Enablers Enablers are things that support and help you achieve your goal. An enabler is someone or something that can assist or help a person to carry out a task Enablers can include the presence of time, commitment, motivation, support, favourable circumstances, lack of distractions By using enablers, someone can optimise their chances of goal success by taking advantage of those things that are available to them as they progress towards achieving their goal.
