Long vs. ShortA short term goal is achieved quickly (finish term paper, wash dishes, mail Christmas cards by Friday, etc.). They help you achieve your long term goals.Long term goals will take months, years, all your life.

For example: graduate from college, become a pilot, lose ___ pounds, etc.

Do you believe you can achieve?We need to learn how to dream. Keep the dream alive, reach your goals Some people dont decide or have a vision of what they want out of life. NO GOALS!!People with goals can see what they eventually want to achieve and they can see just how to get there.

Goals must be realistic you cant lose 40 pounds in one month

Must prioritize rank in order of importance you, cant accomplish it all at once.

Do you have the resources you need to reach your goals (money, information, health, energy, skill, etc.).

Individual Assignment:

Write a long list of the goals you think would be important and worthwhile for you to accomplish. (a dream list) Now have them look at their list and ask themselves the following questions:Does it fit your values?Is it realistic?Is it flexible?Does it fit in with your other goals?Will the rewards be worth what you put in to it?Is it what you want?

Dont sacrifice what matters most for something that doesnt matter that much to you. There are always trade-offs

Build a bridge and get over itYou will have challenges You will have roadblocksYou can have excuses or success but not both
