Describe your future, set your goals, build an action plan and take action now. Goal setting and achievement
What you'll learn
Set and refine your goals such that they guide your actions and allow you to measure progress.
Measure progress towards abstract goals like improving your relationship with a family member.
Evaluate the risk of pursuing a particular goal.
Use "Freewriting" to explore and describe your desired future.
Use "Why drills" to connect your goals to each other and deepen your reasons for having these goals.
Break tasks into subtasks (subroutines) until you find the tasks you can do now to make progress.
Use a version of Collaborative Empiricism to break tasks into small enough subtasks until you find the tasks you can do now.
Know why organizing your time is helpful.
Know why describing your future helps you set and achieve your goals.
Build a basic action plan (strategy).
Use MART Analysis tables to evaluate what is required to apply your action plan.
Oganize your time using small steps until you have a weekly schedule (simple).
Use mental simulations effectively based on peer reviewed scientific research.
Requirements
A willingness to take setting your goals and pursuing them seriously
Description
The purpose of this course is to identify your goals and increase your chances of achieving them using methods backed by peer reviewed scientific research.
By the end of this course, you will have completed a set of exercise that guide you through the following steps to increase your chances of reaching your goals
1. Describe your desired future for your chosen time frame using "Freewriting" techniques.
2. Write and refine your goals so you can measure progress and direct your actions towards your goals using a plan.
3. Build an action plan (strategy) that connects your goals to your life now.
4. Specify actions you can do now to make progress towards your goals and organize them in a schedule.
For each element of the above, we will go through 4 segments in detail to ensure you know what we are doing, why it works and how to do it, along with exercises and solved examples.
I use peer reviewed scientific research in addition to my 10 year experience as a college lecturer to ensure that what I am suggesting is effective.
The course is designed to benefit every person by offering different paths through the material. Depending on your background, interest, and the time you can invest; you can choose to complete every part of the course to get the maximum value from it or, for example, you can choose to go through the summaries only before completing the exercises.
Although completing all the elements of the course will maximize your chances of achieving your goals, any combination of material you choose to complete will provide some benefit. Even taking the shortest path through the material will improve your chances of success.
Check out the preview videos and let's start working on your goals.
