I know I use the SMART goals for myself. It takes a little practice to work on them but makes sense in the end.<br /><br />@Paula: So glad you visited and found this useful. I wrote this last year and used the Goal Setting right at the New Year with my students. I have yet to use it this year - perhaps in the next couple weeks.

I'll be referring to it again They will need to make sure their novel-writing goal is attainable and realistic. For this one, everyone's, by nature of the NaNoWriMo program, will be specific, measurable and timely. I'm looking forward to all of them realistically reaching their goals this year! <br /><br />Thank you,<br />DeniseDenise Krebshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00583406241247334445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4062787008829792602.post-73160186299057611872011-01-04T17:34:14.526-05:002011-01-04T17:34:14.526-05:00I don't know where you get the time to be doin...I don't know where you get the time to be doing all the things you are doing.

One thing I do that I learned from the book "Balanced Living All Year" by Joan Celebi is to not only write your resolution to do list, but to reflect on the past year and write a "done list". It is really helpful to take a moment to write down accomplishments and tasks that you have completed over the past year to . Too often we focus on the unfinished items on our to do lists, but we should celebrate all that we have done too!Cheryl Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00272525346908396130noreply@blogger.com
