CoreValue of the Month
Embrace Knowledge and Intellectual Pursuits
Being in Honor Society, this is naturally core to our mission. We try to foster members’
pursuit of academics and information in school, and even post-graduation, by cultivating
relationships with others who seek these same values.

7. Goal Setting
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
How many times do you find yourself setting a goal and just a few weeks
later, you’ve either gotten too busy to reach it and it’s moved down to the
bottom of your priority list?
If you’re tired of feeling like your goals aren’t being met, then you’re not
setting goals the right way.
When you set goals the right way, you’re going to see that you can reach
them much more quickly and efficiently. You’re also going to feel even more
satisfied when you accomplish the goal instead of feeling burnt out or
exhausted.

8. Step 1
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Decide on your outcome and why you want to reach it
Simply defining your goal is not enough if you really want to achieve
it. You need to know why you want to reach it.
When you kick in the emotional why, you’re going to be that much
more motivated and empowered to get it done.
When you really know why you want to do something, it becomes
much more meaningful than a simple task on your to do list.

9. Activity
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Write down a specific goal at the top of your page. Underneath it,
write for 2 minutes all of the reasons why you want to accomplish
this goal.

10. Step 2
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
How would it feel to actually reach your goal?
You want to visualize what it actually feels like to reach your goal.
Make it a reality before it’s even happened.
When you get into the zone of knowing what it feels like to
accomplish it, it’s going to feel that much more possible and you’re
going to reach it that much faster.
You’ll spend less time wondering if it’s possible and more time
getting the work done to get there. Come back to this visualization
each day before you start working on your steps to reach the goal.

11. Activity
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Visualize what it will feel like to accomplish the goal that you
determined in step one. Spend 2 minutes describing the visualization
and describe how it feels to have reached this goal.

12. Step 3
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Create the steps to reach your goal.
You want to create a step by step outline of what it’s going to take to
reach your goal.
When you break it out into these steps, there’s no questions of what
you need to do next. You won’t waste time trying to decide what you
should work on, which is a recipe for procrastination.
This is especially gratifying when you are ahead of schedule and get
to cross off more steps than originally planned. This is a great feeling
to keep you feeling motivated.

13. Activity
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Outline the steps that are necessary to reach the goal. Add
deadlines for each step.

14. Step 4
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Have someone hold you accountable.
Accountability is key when it comes to accomplishing your goals.
We’re all humans and we all could use a little accountability outside
of ourselves.
It’s much easier for us to convince ourselves out of something when
no one else is affected or involved. The second that someone else
knows, it’s much harder for us to back out.
When you have an exciting new goal, text a friend or family member
or post it on Facebook and Twitter. You don’t need to give the details,
just simply say that you’re super excited to be working on a new
project for xyz.

15. Activity
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Choose an accountability partner.

16. Step 5
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Celebrate each step you’ve made towards your goal
No matter how big or small the accomplishment, celebrate your hard
work. When you check off a step, instead of thinking to yourself, I
wish I could get there faster, tell you’re self great job and you’re
excited that you’re getting things done.
These little shifts seem minor, but in the grand scheme of things they
make a tremendous difference.

17. Activity
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Decide how you will celebrate accomplishing each step and the final
goal accomplishment.

18. Step 6
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Acknowledge the journey.
When it comes to accomplishments, it’s not only about the
destination. It’s about the journey.
There is so much to be learned through achieving your goals. Make
sure you have an appreciation for this.
When you have an appreciation for the journey, you’re less likely to
feel frustrated with how long it’s taking because you know you’re
doing everything you need to do.

19. Activity
Leadership,Values & Benefits Program January 2017
Set a reminder each week to remind yourself why you’re excited
about this goal and re-read your “why.”
