Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
The first step in breaking down a big goal is to turn it into an objective outcome goal, which means it should be measurable and clear.
- •
To track progress towards a large goal, it's helpful to set benchmarks that provide opportunities for celebration and reflection along the way.
- •
To overcome obstacles, create an 'if-then' statement, also known as an implementation intention, where you plan a specific solution for a potential obstacle.
