  1. Goal Setting How to Set a Clear Goal

  2. Be Specific • Being as specific as possible increases the chance that you will achieve your goal. • Instead of saying, “I want to make good grades,” say, “I want to make an A in science.”

  3. Set Realistic Goals • Make sure your goal is within your reach. • Instead of trying to earn all A’s when you are currently failing most subjects, try bringing two or three grades up to C’s. • Next grading period, you can aim for all A’s.

  4. Develop an Action Plan • Identify the steps you need to take to reach your goal. Be specific about what you can do each day to move toward your goal.

  5. Put it in Writing • Write down, in a positive way, exactly what you want to achieve. • Instead of, “I won’t get sent to the principal’s office,” write, “I will follow classroom rules.”

  6. Post It • Display your goal where you will see it everyday. • This will remind you what you’re working toward. • Your bedroom wall, the front of your agenda, or the refrigerator are good places to display your goal.

  7. Involve Others • Ask a teacher, parent, or someone else you trust to evaluate the progress seen in you towards making your goal. • Those checkmarks can be encouraging and provide extra motivation.

  8. Believe in Yourself • Stay positive when you make mistakes. • Get that positive self talk going! • See yourself achieving your goal.

  9. Be Flexible • Keep in mind that setbacks can happen. • Never give up! • No one is immediately successful. • A good goal is one you must strive to achieve.

  10. Reward Yourself • Reaching a goal takes hard word and you should be proud of your efforts. • Call attention to your success. • CELEBRATE!!!
