Goal Setting

The key to goal setting is:
1. Finding out what makes us happy
2. SMARTER goals
3. Writing not typing
4. Making the goals visual
5. Checkin and being held accountable
6. Consistent revisiting and revising of strategies.
​7. Ensuring the goal makes us happy

​This unit is designed with the conventional SMARTER goal concept with the addition of happiness. Inspired by The Happiness Project and the Happiness Trap.

The student's who piloted this unit last year provided very positive feedback. A majority felt that the strategies were effective and would remain apart of their goal setting routine. A majority felt that they worked towards achieving the goal, realised the goal needed to be restructured and had more success due to the links to happiness and strategy development.
Other Helpful Tips For Goal Setting
by The Happiness Trap 
• Make a step-by-step plan: break your goal down into concrete, measurable and time-based sub-goals.
• Tell other people about your goal and your ongoing progress: making a public declaration increases commitment.
• Reward yourself for making progress in your goal: small rewards help push you on to major success. (A reward might be as simple as saying to yourself, ‘Well done! You made a start!’)
• Record your progress: keep a journal, graph or drawing that plots your progress.
