How to set goals

Writing them down
The goals you establish should be written down – it's a good way to promise yourself you'll keep them:

- Take three pieces of paper, or use the work pages provided. On first, write down what you would kike to be doing in ten years (working as an accountant? Running your own design studio? Retraining and Finding a job in the computer industry? Having flexible work so that you can schedule around your children? )

Take several days to consider what you want your future to hold, and then settle on the one or two long-range career plans upon which you'd like to focus.

- Record on the second sheet what you would like to be doing in two years. Perhaps you'd like to have a management job within two years, or decided to work in a new filed. If your long-rang goal requires advanced education (such as going to business school or getting a Ph. D.), then on this sheet of paper you should note down what you need to be doing during the next two years to accomplish these long-rang goals.

- Short-term goals (six months) belong on your third sheet of paper. If you have to apply for master degree as part of your long – rang plan, then a short-term goal should include investigating universities and scholarships and taking the necessary entrance exams.

In ten years I would like to:
(Write what you see yourself doing and down the career goals you would like to have achieved.)

My short-term (six months) goals are:
