Lesson 7: Future Plans
Choosing Your Destination

Activity 1 – Goals

Goal setting is a fundamental part of planning for your future. For this lesson, you will set goals for the future based on research you've done throughout the preceding lessons.

Before you set goals, you must first know what a goal is and the important factors in setting goals. Study the Goal Setting Planning Sheet, and use it as you review at least two of the following sites about goal setting:

• Effective goal setting
  
  
• A college student's guide to goal setting
  
  
• Top Achievement goal setting

After you have reviewed the Web sites, evaluate the usefulness and credibility of each by finding and comparing at least one additional resource on goal setting. Use the Goal Setting Evaluation Worksheet.

On the attached sheet, brainstorm and write a personal goal and a career goal for your future. Use the worksheet called Brainstorming - Thinking Through Your Goals to complete the assignment.
