Goal SettingAs a Cookie Captain, it is important to
set S.M.A.R.T. goals to help you ensure success with both your cookie sales
and your project! S.M.A.R.T Goals are:
S – Specific
M – Measureable
A – Attainable
R – Realistic
T - Timely
SThe “S” in S.M.A.R.T.
Goals stands
for “Specific”.Specific is the “What,” Where” and “Why?” of Setting smart goals.
Think about specific goals when planning your project. What are you going to do? Host an event? Make a Video?
Where are you going to do your event? In your hometown? In another town within your service unit?
Why is your project important? Will it make your service unit better? Will you learn something from doing it?
MM stands for measureable.
People have said, if you can’t measure it – you can’t manage
it. Imagine trying to put together an event and not
asking people to RSVP to let you know they were coming. What would happen if you had 600
show up? What would happen if you had 3 people show up? Do
little things like as for an RSVP, so you know how many people are coming to make your goal
easier to see.
AThe “A” stands for Attainable. This is important in goal setting because you want to stretch your limits but set yourself up for success. Plan on your goal stretching you beyond what you would normally do but something that you can realistically accomplish in 25 hours
For example: Set a goal to make a 5 minute movie in 25 hours is attainable. This gives you time to plan, film your movie and edit. If you are trying to film a 2 and a ½ hour movie, you wouldn’t have time to write the script and film, let alone finish the whole movie.
R “R” stands for realistic.
If you think about it, do you think it’s possible to get all of your service hours in a week? Is it possible to sell 10,000 cookies by yourself door to door? This is where the “R” in SMART comes in.
Set goals that you know you can achieve, but keep the bar high. You’ll feel better about your project if you have done something that pushed you to try new things.
T “T” stands for timely
Timely goals are important. We all know how easy it to is to say we are going to do something and then start putting it off and putting it off. Then suddenly, its due tomorrow!
For your goal to happen, its important to keep your timeline in mind. Remember when hours cards are due (April 1st) and plan your time line accordingly.
Remember to keep the rest of your life in mind too. It can be hard to find the time to do service hours if you have a huge test coming up.
