My Smart Goal

Success is the achievement or accomplishment of a goal or purpose. “‘Well, how did I do?’ I looked at the watch; he had broken A. Hopkins Parker’s record by .7 second.” When Finny sees that no one in his time at Devon has broken a swimming record, he decides to try to do it and ends up beating the record by .7 seconds. I think that the situation that this quotation comes from shows success in two ways.

Problem Statement: The client has been experiencing excessive and uncontrollable worry regarding various events and activities for at least six months. This is accompanied by physical symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, and trouble swallowing. Additionally, the client is presenting with symptoms of depression, including feelings of hopelessness, lack of motivation, and suicidal tendencies. These symptoms significantly interfere with daily functioning, affecting the client's ability to study and maintain healthy relationships. The client is seeking treatment due to the distressing experiences caused by these symptoms.

Goals are something that each individual should have, however, they can be short term or long term. My short term goal over the next year; I would like to

Another way to measure success is by doing things the right way. For instance, like the time I got to finish my middle school year with honors. I got A and B honor roll,

This trait is integrally connected to other servant leader traits like persuasion, foresight, stewardship, and even self-awareness (Spahr, 2015; Spears, 2010), and without proper development of conceptualization, my other servant leader traits will also suffer from underdevelopment.

My goal is measurable since once I have completed the 60 days, then I will have completed my goal if my manager deems that it was a satisfactory period. In order to measure my progress, I will ask or constant feedback from co-workers and management.

I define success as trying you're hardest no matter what and persevering through everything that you try. You may not get through the problem that you are having. Even though you didn't complete the challenge that you were having if you got as much out of the task that was placed in front of you, then you have succeeded. I also define success as when you set a goal for you're self or someone else sets a goal for you. If you reach that goal or go above that goal that was set, then you have succeeded. I believe that success is not just finishing you're work, test or challenge, if you finish it but do not do you're best and try you're hardest, then I believe that you are not successful in what you just did, but if you go as hard as you can, not

During the implementation of my health plan I was able only partially meet SMART goals and objectives. My goal was to reduce exposure to harmful noises (higher than 85 dB) to less than 8 hours a day. In order to meet that goal I was using an app on my phone to measure noise level I was exposed to. In the situations where it was possible I was either reducing volume or using protective devices (earplugs and noise cancellation headphones) to reduce harmful effect of noise. I was able to meet my goal only in well controlled environments where I was able to control intensity of noise. For example - when I was driving car alone I could reduce music volume in the car. However in almost all other activities, like during lectures, during walks outside and in movie theaters, I could not control intensity of noises and could not avoid those activities. So in reality it was very difficult to fully implement my health plan.

The two SMART goals as discussed by Kinicki and Williams (2013), that I feel apply in the text that is described and based on the text about GM include:

My third long term SMART goal is a combination of achieving this Masters of Science degree from Western Governors University before Spring 2017 and using what I have learned in my job, specifically in my new territory.

Since I was a child I have always been fascinated by languages. Most likely, this passion derived from my parents trying to hide things from me by speaking Pig Latin, which I caught onto fast. However, as I got older this passion grew and has yet to cease growing. Currently, I work as an American Sign Language Interpreter and I am enrolled in Spanish 112 at Wake Technical Community College. Thus, for my SMART Goal I have decided that I would like to learn a new language, German. By the end of the time limit I would like to be able to speak conversational German and be able to travel to the country and converse with locals. The reason I would like to learn German is because of my boyfriend. Over Christmas break I went to a private island is

Masicampo, E. J., & Baumeister, R. F. (2011). Consider it done! Plan making can eliminate the cognitive effects of unfulfilled goals.

I believe I met my coarse goals, although I could have done better. The first of three resources that I found valuable is the smart thinking tool. I can submit my paper into the smart thinking tool, and receive input back from the online tutors. The smart thinking tool is great for getting help with papers before they are due, it can be found in the tool section of discussion board. Another resource is in the assignment section within discussion board; in this section you can find many tools and videos that explains how to work your way through certain criteria’s. Within the assignment you will find learning key number 3; this is a good resource because it gives ideas on good study strategy. One piece of advice that I can give to a new graduate
