A Simple Guide to Setting and Achieving Your Life Goals

Planning of goals is very important in our life  let’s break  into three parts:

1.                       How to choose life goals.

2.                       How to get there.

3.                       How to keep track of all your goals and actions.

*How to choose life goals
There is no perfect answer here. Some people have known for a while now what they really want, but just haven’t pursued it, and for them, it just takes a little contemplation to realize what they’ve wanted all along. Others will have a more difficult time, as they have never figured out what their dream is, or what they’d like to accomplish. For them, I’d make a few suggestions:

1.                       Take some time for quiet contemplation.

2.                       Think about what’s important to you.

3.                       Think about what you’d like people to say about you when you die.

4.                       Brainstorm — make a list of all the things you’d like to do in life, things that sound fun and exciting and wonderful, and then choose the best of the list.

5.                       You don’t have to come up with your life goals right now. You could just think of something you’d like to achieve over the next 6 months to a year, and continue to explore different things until you find your dream.

*How to get there
If you know your goals, the next question is how to get there. A great method that I’ve seen numerous times, most recently by Mark Joyner in his Simple*ology system, is called backward planning, a method used by the military. Basically, here’s how it works:

• Have a clearly defined goal with a clearly defined outcome — you should be able to visualize what it looks like when you’ve accomplished the outcome.
• What is the last thing you’ll need to do to achieve that outcome? If your goal is to publish a novel, for example, the last thing you’ll need to do (before the publisher does the layout and design, printing, marketing, etc.) is edit and submit the final draft.
• What is the thing you’ll need to do just before that step? In the above example, you might want to get an outside editor to review your draft and give your criticisms and suggestions and edits.
• What is the thing you’ll need to do before that step? In the example, you’d need to do a revised draft to submit to your editor.
• And so on, until you get to the first step. The first step is what you need to focus on. In the novel example, you might have “brainstorm novel ideas” as your first step.

If you follow this plan, you’ll have a step-by-step guide to achieving your goal. Now you just need a way to track your goals and achieve them.

*How to track and achieve your goals – a simple method
As Bob suggests, it would take a well-planned form or software to track a bunch of goals, broken down by periods of your life (1 year, 5 years, 10 years, etc). That can be very complicated, as I’ve discovered myself.

So how can you simplify this? Of your life goals, choose one to accomplish within the next 12 months. If none of them can be accomplished in 12 months, choose a sub-goal of one of your life goals to accomplish in 12 months. And only choose ONE goal. Here’s an example:

Life goal: build my dream house
1 year goal: save $5,000 towards a down payment for my dream house

Once you’ve chosen your 1 year goal (and remember, only choose one — not one for each area of your life, but just one), then choose a medium-term goal that you can accomplish in 3-6 months. It should be a big chunk of your 1 year goal. For example:

medium-term goal: save $2,500 in 6 months

Then choose a short-term goal you can accomplish in 1-2 weeks. For example:

short-term goal: set up automatic deductions from my paycheck to go straight to savings — amount: $200 per paycheck.

The reason you should only focus on one goal at a time is that it’s hard to track a whole bunch of goals, and it’s hard to maintain focus on more than one goal at a time. If you just have to accomplish one thing this week, you can really put your energy into making it happen. But if you need to do 3-5 things in the next two weeks, it’s much more likely that you won’t do any of them.

So, focus on your short-term goal (1-2 weeks) and then when you complete it, choose the next short-term goal to get you to your medium-term goal. Once the medium-term goal is accomplished, choose a new medium-term goal to get you to your long-term goal (1 year). Once your long-term goal is accomplished, set your sights on a new long-term goal. Keep this up, and you’ll achieve a lot.

Here’s another example:

1 yr goal: Quit my job and work from home
medium-term goal: start an online business that will bring me income
short-term goal: brainstorm and research ideas for online business

I’ve found that this simplified system does a lot to helping me stay focused. It’s also hard to only choose one goal, as we always want to do 10 goals, but I think it’s worth it to decide what’s most important.

And the goal-tracking system is simple: on a simple 3×5 index card (or any sheet of paper), write down three things: your 1-year goal, your medium-term goal, and your short-term goal. When you accomplish the short-term goal, just cross it off and write a new one. It doesn’t require any fancy software or planning system.

The key is to maintain focus on your one goal, and to put all your energy into achieving it. Don’t forget it, don’t be distracted from it. Let it be the point on the horizon that you continually keep in sight, moving around obstacles but constantly heading towards that point. Maintain your focus, and you’ll achieve it.

"FORMAL AND INFORMAL LEARNING."

 

            “FORMAL AND INFORMAL LEARNING.”




We are all learning machines. We learn constantly and in so many ways. We learn by doing, by observing, by listening, by reading, and by teaching others. We also learn through formal and informal means. What’s the difference between the two and what are the benefits of each? Let’s see!
First, what is formal learning versus informal learning? These two terms refer to the dissemination or acquisition of knowledge in our organizations. Formal learning occurs through a controlled and structured approach on a broad-based institutional level. Examples include formal training programs and/or formal written procedures. Informal learning happens more spontaneously between groups of people. An example includes learning by sharing experiences with others in a chat room online or at a company picnic.

We learn in both ways at work so what does this information mean to us as trainers? Let ud start by saying that all learning, no matter how it takes place, is valuable. Remember, knowledge is power right? In our training departments we spend a great deal of our time designing and delivering formal training programs for our employees. However, we can also create environments or situations where informal learning between employees occurs as well. Therefore, I am going to share my
thoughts on some benefits of each type of learning so you can think of the best times to include both in your company
.
Benefits of Formal Learning::-

 Large numbers of employees will learn the same information and/or processes at the same time. If properly designed, the course content should be accurate and up to date. Employees learning through formal training programs come up to speed faster once they start their jobs. Properly designed formal training programs can include a variety of methods to appeal to all learning styles and conform to adult learning principles.

Benefits of Informal Learning:-

Creating informal learning situations can be less costly and more time efficient given all of the social media technologies and electronic devices we have today. Learning informally can be more personal and less intimidating for some people. Subject-matter experts may be more willing to share their knowledge with others this way. Since learning this way happens more naturally during the flow of someone’s work day, employees may be less likely to resist learning new things.

So now that We’ve defined each type of learning and offered you some benefits for each one we hope we’ve inspired you to be more creative when deciding how to most effectively train your employees.

INTEREST, IDENTITY,CULTURE AND TEACHING.

 “  INTEREST , IDENTITY, CULTURE AND TEACHING”.

This  is the discussion  around  interest, identity,culture and Teaching. The first On Point operationalizes the way in which it defines culture and how to think about educational settings and scenarios from the point of view of culture. While this On Point focuses on teacher’s identity, the third On Point in this series addresses how classrooms are enriched by the funds of knowledge and assets that children and their families bring with them from their home sand communities.Teaching as the direct delivery of some preplanned curriculum, teaching as the orderly and scripted conveyance of information, teaching as clerking, is simply a myth. Teaching is much larger and much more alive than that; itcontains more pain and conflict, more joy and intelligence, more uncertainty and ambiguity. It requires more judgment and energy andintensity than, on some days, seems humanly possible. Teachers bring themselves—their life experiences, histories, and cultures—into the classroom. They bring their assumptions andbeliefs about what a good teacher is and does,their knowledge of education theory, research,and human development, and their love andknowledge of content areas. They bring theirpersonalities and teaching styles that areshaped by social and cultural interactions. when they are with others. Other teachers areenergetic and lively around their students, butneed down time to refuel and ground themselves.Some teachers love routine and predictability,while other teachers become particularly excited when routines are interrupted andthey can act spontaneously. All of this isshaped and reshaped by daily experiences inthe classroom. The longer teachers teach, themore their beliefs and knowledge arereorganized and sculpted by experience.

Some teachers are extroverted and come alive.Experience, culture, and personality are just partof who teachers are, and they go whereverteachers go—including their classrooms. For teachers from dominant culturalbackgrounds(white, middle class teachers in the UnitedStates), their own culture may not be somethingthey are immediately aware of because it fitsso seamlessly withprevailingopinions,beliefs,values,and expectations about behavior,education, and life choices. Yet, many choicesthat teachers make are determinedmore fromtheir cultural background than from individualbeliefs. The expectations that teachers holdfor teaching and learning are grounded in cultural beliefs that may be unfamiliar to students and families from non-dominant cultures.

Teachers who understand and value their owncultural identities recognize culture as acomplex construction. In doing so, they create the possibility for deeper connections with their students and families. Cultural responsivity comes from understanding self and others so that different values areunderstood and respected, rather than one set of values being imposed on all. Culturallyresponsive teachers can build robust learning environments in which students and teachers can build richer and deeper understandings of themselves and each other as they investigate and uncover the school curriculum.

Importance of study in our life.

           Study is very precious to everyone's life. All have different meanings and importance of study in their lives. Some think that we study to become successful in our life. Some thinks that it is necessary to study because if we will not study, we will not get good percentage in exams and we will not have a bright future. But i have some different views on the importance of study in our life.

       According to me, the real mean of study is "Grab Knowledge". We study to take knowledge about all that we want to know.  Knowledge can be increased by studying books, watching educational programs on television, by exploring and by listening to other people. Studying is a very important part of our life because only by studying, we get to know that who we are, how we came here, how we were made, how the whole universe was made,how life begins on earth, about the different species of animals, about the history of past times, about the great heroes of our nation, about the famous writers and their books, about different historical buildings and much more. There is endless list of things that we can know by studying. We can get the answer of our every question by studying  various kinds of books.

          

       The right way of studying is to understand everything instead of cramming. Because we are able to remember much by understanding and for a long time rather than by cramming. If we have knowledge, than we are able to give answer of everything.

       Everything that we do is meaningless until we don't know that why we're doing it, how is it happening and  what we will get by doing so. The famous scientists like Albert Einstein and Thomas Alva Edison had done many inventions and discoveries in their life and changed the world. But how did they do it? Because they were very interested in their particular topic and they also had knowledge about it. But how? By studying. If they can do it, then why can't we? 

        From this we can conclude that study is a most precious treasure of our life and we should take interest in studying and we should have excitement of studying. One more thing i want to share that if you have ability, knowledge and will power, there is no such power that can stop you to achieve success. At last, i would like to say - Don't study to live, but live to study.
