S pecific M A R T E Goal Setting Model Smart goals are specific.
Specific goals are much more likely to be accomplished than vague ones! A specific goal can be determined by asking the following questions: WHO is involved? Smart goals don’t depend on the involvement of too many people - remember, the only person you can control is yourself, so the achievement of your goal should depend on you. WHAT do you want to accomplish? Define your aim, so you will have a clear idea of what you are aiming for. A vague ‘I want to be a better person’ is not specific enough! WHERE will you work on your goal? Identify a location or locations where most of the work towards your goal will be carried out. If your home is the main base, you may need to revamp a few things. WHEN do you hope to accomplish your goal? Set a time frame and specific deadline for completion. Having a specific end date will keep you from procrastinating. WHICH factors will affect the success of your goal? What requirements do you have, and what limitations will you have to deal with? Being prepared for obstacles makes them easier to surmount. WHY do you want to reach this goal? The reasons behind your choice of a goal are just as important as the goal itself. Looking at those reasons can often tell you quite a bit about yourself!
5
M easurable S A R T E Goal Setting Model Smart goals are measurable.
You should be able to see the progress you are making. This allows you to feel the thrill of each milestone reached, and keeps you on track for completion of your goal. The way you find out if your goal is truly measurable is to ask another set of questions: How much (weight do I want to lose)? How many (laps do I want to swim)? How will I know when the goal is reached? Charts are a great way for you to track your progress and measure how much of your goal you have achieved.
6
A ttainable S M R T E Goal Setting Model Smart goals are attainable.
Not easy, but attainable. They aren’t based on a premise that you will suddenly become superhuman, and they don’t follow a plan of action that could be hazardous. They simply represent what you know you are capable of if you just put some effort into it. Each goal you reach makes the next one seem more attainable, so as you grow so can your goals! As you stretch to reach the goals you set for yourself, you find out you are capable of more than you ever thought possible. You set goals higher each time as you grow more confident.

R elevant S M A T E Goal Setting Model
Smart goals are Relevant. Some say realistic but lets say relevant instead. Can you agree that winning the Indy 500 was not a relevant goal to Florence Chadwick? Goals that move here closer to her ultimate goal. Relevant meaning your goals must fit into what you are trying to accomplish in the various aspects of your life (career, finances, spiritual, relationships, etc. )

T Ime Bound S M A R E Goal Setting Model Smart goals are timely.
If you don’t have a time frame for the reaching of your goal, you have no real impetus. ‘Someday’ is not an acceptable deadline. Setting a date for the completion of your goal puts you in motion mentally and sets the pace for a steady race to the finish. Smart goal setting takes into account all of the guidelines above, and helps you develop a right state of mind and a game plan for getting things done. Is your goal a SMART one?

E valuated S M A R T Goal Setting Model
Once the goal is completed step back and focus on the entire process of accomplishing the goal from the start to the finish and evaluated your overall performance. How did you do? What did you learn, what do you LB about how you accomplish the goal and the steps you took. Give what you know now what would you do differently the next time. valuated

It is so important that you write your goals down because it allows you to see how far you have come. Annually you look at overall goals eviewed

No planning = Failing State each goal as positive statement: 'Execute this technique well' , better goal than 'don't make this stupid mistake'

The Intrinsic and Extrinsic Theory of Motivation
Intrinsic motivation: people are motivated for personal, internal reasons. i.e.: I would feel good about my level of English if I passed ILETS Level 7 Extrinsic motivation: people are motivated from external factors. i.e. I want a job where I can use English, so I must pass ILETS Level 7
14
Strengthen Your motivation
Intrinsic Motivation ✔ Find meaningful quotes and place them where you will read them: ww.motivatingquotes.com ✔ Believe in yourself, and develop a deep interest in your goals. Think of the big picture ✔ Remind yourself why you join the college and what you plan to do after ✔ Be curious! Do research, make lists, develop your plans (practice what you learn)
15
Strengthen Your motivation
Extrinsic Motivation ✔Choose a specific goal with a deadline. Center your goal on something measurable: a test, a number (GPA of 3.00), or an accomplishment (certificate, acceptance, etc.) ✔ Seek support from …………. ✔ Write down the practical benefits ✔ Delegate a portion of your free time to achieving your dreams

Rewards Support Identify reward for achieving short term goal
Feed your motivation with a flow of steady incentive Surround yourself with positive emotional support (friends, family) Tell people about your goal. Increases support and keeps you on your path. Rewards Rewards are powerful motivators Celebrate your successes! Positive self treatment is encouraging to keep going Improving a bit each day, no matter how tiny that bit is, will take you to your ultimate goal! Just be gradual, consistent Identify reward for achieving short term goal Identify reward for achieving ultimate goal
17
Achieving Goals Enjoy the goal you achieved. If you achieved it too easily, make your next goals harder If the goal took long time to achieve, make the next goals little easier If you learned something that would lead you to change other goals, do so If while achieving the goal you noticed deficit in your skills, decide to set goals to fix this “The difference between a dream and a goal is action” What is worth doing is worth doing well
18
Importance of Encouraging Vocabulary
Supportive words: I can, I will, I’ll try, I’ll do it, I can make it happen Excuse words: I can’t, never, It won’t work, if, maybe, won’t
19
Focus on present and future plans not on WHY past plans failed
You can’t change your past but you can plan changes for your future It is important to assess the past to learn from it but not to dwell on it Put energy into planning Ask “WHAT” questions: encourage you to think about what you want to accomplish and how
20
What if I can't complete a goal?
First, don't get discouraged:Most noteworthy accomplishments are not common. Because, if something were easy, then everyone would be doing it & it would no longer be very noteworthy Recognize Partial accomplishment: Suppose you're CGPA is 2.3, your goal was to increase study time by 3 hours to raise your GPA to 2.5? If you manage to increase study time and your GPA to 2.45, then it's important to recognize the huge improvement. Acknowledging partial success is very important if you intend to set challenging goals Break large difficult goals into smaller manageable goals: Large complex goals can be overwhelming & discouraging
