Personal goal setting lesson

1. PERSONAL GOAL SETTING (SMART)

2. LEARNING OUTCOMES: At the end of the lesson, students are expected to: Enumerate the different components of SMART goals; Use SMART components in creating personal goals 2

3. WHAT ARE SMART GOALS? He crafted SMART as an acronym which means specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time bounded. These elements are necessary to come up with effective goals. George T. Duran in 1981, who was then a consultant and director of corporate planning for Washington Power Company, he introduced SMART goals as an instrument to improve the likelihood of accomplishment. 3

4. S – Specific Being specific about the goal that you want to achieve is the primary concern of the first acronym. It includes the answers to the common “w” questions: 4

5. M – Measurable What indicators are included to identify whether the goal has been achieved? It provides a method to be able to measure your success and progress. If it is a long-term goal, it involves questions like ‘what are the milestones to consider in accomplishing the tasks?’ 5

6. A – Achievable Always set goals which are attainable. Since we do not want to be discouraged, think about measures to achieve the goal. Consider the tools and skills needed, and what it would take to achieve those. 6

7. R – Relevant Focus on something that is appropriate and applicable. Set goals which are anchored to your broader goals. For example, your broader goal is to take the examination on time; however, you also have a plan to have a vacation on the same date. The goal that you set for a vacation is not relevant to the achievement of your broader goal. 7

8. T – Time-bound Lacking a realistic timing will most likely lead to unaccomplished goals; set deadlines and target dates for your deliverables. Make sure that your goal can be accomplished within a period of time. Provide milestones of achievement. What should be achieved a quarter or halfway the time? Providing time constraints also creates a sense of urgency. 8
