Shake Out My Future Activity Complete the Shake Out My Future worksheet 1.17.3.A1 For each category, roll the die to determine what your final outcome would be Roll the die and cross out the number that is rolled For example: In the housing category if you roll a 2 you would cross out the word “Mansion” Continue until you have rolled the die enough times to have only one option remaining. This will be your final outcome for that category Record your final outcome in the box next to the category and answer the reflection question

Letter Write a letter to yourself about what you envision your life will be like in five years. Examples of items you may write about include: Education Career Family Money

Goals Goal – the end result of something a person intends to acquire, achieve, do, reach, or accomplish sometime in the near or distant future Financial goals – specific objectives to be accomplished through financial planning Education goals - enable individuals to prepare for future success in the workplace

Goals Short-term goals – specified as less than one year I plan to raise my English grade from a C+ to a B by the end of this academic year by asking my older brother to peer review my research paper prior to turning it in. Underline events in your letter that can be achieved with a short-term goal. Long-term goals – specified as more than one year By the end of the next academic year I would like to purchase my first car by saving $50 per month from my part time job. Put parentheses around events that can be achieved with a long-term goal.

The Importance of Goal Writing A study in What They Don’t Teach You at Harvard Business School by Mark McCormack 1979- Students were asked, "Have you set clear, written goals for your future and made plans to accomplish them?" 3% had written goals and plans 13% percent had goals, but they were not in writing 84% percent had no specific goals at all New Slide

And what about that 3% Ten years later….the 3% that had written goals and plans were earning, on average, ten times as much as the other 97 percent put together. New Slide

SMART Goals SMART Goals Specific Measurable Attainable Realistic State exactly what is to be done Measurable Include how the goal can be measured Attainable Determine steps to reach the goal Realistic Do not set goals for something unrealistic Time Bound State when the goal will be met

Education Goals Help individuals prepare for success in the workplace Examples include: Earning an A on an upcoming quiz Attending college Participating in extra-curricular activities Include both short-term and long-term goals Provide guidance and direction Enable individuals to reach financial goals

SMART Education Goals Specific Measurable Attainable Realistic State exactly what is to be done with the education aspect involved Measurable Write the exact grade or class that the goal is for Attainable Determine how it can be reached, which is often determined by academic work Realistic Do not set goal for something unattainable or unrealistic Time Bound Specifically state when the goal needs to be reached Added “education” to the title and changed the smart art on this slide so that there are not 3 SMART Goals slide that look exactly the same

SMART Education Goal Goal – “I want to attend college.” SMART goal – Specific – I want to attend a four year college Measurable – Because I want to attend a four year college, I will earn a B in algebra Attainable – Because I want to attend a four year college, I will earn a B in algebra this semester Realistic – Because I want to attend a four year college, I will earn a B in algebra this semester to prepare me for the college entrance exam Time Bound – Because I want to attend a four year college, I will earn a B in algebra this semester to prepare me for the college entrance exam when I am a junior in high school Bolded each element of a SMART goal

SMART Financial Goals Specific State exactly what is to be done with the money involved Measurable Write the exact dollar amount the goal is for Attainable Determine how it can be reached, which is often determined by the individual’s budget Realistic Do not set goal for something unattainable or unrealistic Time Bound Specifically state when the goal needs to be reached Added “financial” to the title and changed the smart art so that it is not the same as the other smart goals slides

SMART Financial Goal Goal – I want to buy a new car SMART goal – Specific – I plan to save for a down payment on a new car Measurable – I plan to save $5,000 for a down payment on a new car Attainable – I plan to save $5,000 for a down payment on a new car by saving $200 from every paycheck Realistic – It is realistic to save $200 from each paycheck for a down payment on a car because I usually waste the money on unnecessary items instead of saving it Time Bound – I plan to save $5,000 for a down payment on a new car by saving $200 from each paycheck for two years.
