Warm Up
• What is the difference between a goal and an objective?
• Why are ten year plans important to have?
Ten Year Plan
Why?
• A ten year plan is like a driving directions map.
• It is one thing to have a goal…but another to know how to get to that goal.
• A ten year plan allows for you to think of the map to your life.
Goals versus Objectives
• Goals are long term.• Objectives are shorter term.• Objectives are specific and mostly
measurable.• Objectives are the steps to the goal.
Example
• Goal: Lose 100 pounds.Objectives to Meet that Goal:
• Start a walking program with the group at your office that meets after work.
• Eliminate sweets from diet all but one night of the week.
• Complete a 5K by the end of year #3.• Participate in at least one yoga class per week
by end of year #5.
Example 2
• Goal #2: Become an elementary school principal.Objectives to Meet that Goal:
• Take a job as an elementary education teacher the summer after graduation.
• Teach elementary education or several years.• While teaching, return to school for a Masters
degree in Educational Leadership.• Take a job as an Assistant Principal by year six.
Practice
• Goal: Pass Application in Marine Science with an A
• Objectives to meet the goal:
Practice 2

Last practice
• Goal: To have a job by the end of Junior year.• Objectives to meet goals:
Your ten year plan.
• I want you to select a career that you had went over from last week. You knew what was the good and what was the bad about each. You also knew from their interviews what was required (education levels or special skills like SCUBA diving certification).
What is required…
• The main goal is your career.• You need to list all of the objectives you need
to do to get to that career.• You also need some bullet points under some
of your objectives.• Use your notes from the road to college to
recall time to different degrees and what you need to do.
Example
• Goal: Be a shark researcher• Objectives:• Objective 1: Graduate high school by year 3.– Pass all required classes with GPA over 3.– Join two clubs a year and being a leader in one by year
3.– Take the SATs two times year two and one in year
three.– Complete all required MSA community service hours.– Apply to seven colleges in year 3.
Continued…
• Objective 2: Earn a bachelor’s of science in Marine Biology by year 7.– Pass all classes required by my major with a GPA
above 3….For the rest of this…think of what you will need to
do class and grade wise? What would you need to do for work? Would you need to volunteer in a lab or not? Do you need SCUBA as an objective? Would you join clubs or honors programs? Think of what would get you to the end goal?
Final Part
• I want you to write a short one half page summary on why you chose the career that you picked for this assignment. I want you to tell me what about the job appeals to you. I want you to tell me why does it match your interests. I want you to tell me why you would be happy doing this career.
