Setting Goals

During this week's meeting we asked cadets to think about their goals. Setting goals gives you long-term vision and short-term motivation. It helps you focus on what you need to learn and do, and organize your time and resources so you can make the most of your life. 

In other words, how can you expect to get to where you want to be if you do not know where you want to go? Even when we aren't 100% sure of what we want to do or be in the future, setting 'stepping stone' goals will help us get moving forward in a positive way. Goals are tools and we should use them. 

We talked about SMART goals - Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time-bound



We'd like to help our members set and achieve some of their goals in CAP and in doing so, and to assist in developing some techniques and organizational skills to achieve their own personal goals. 

The first step is to determine what goals we are interested in as a squadron. We all joined because we share an interest in this organization and mission, so one way to achieve our goals, is to work with others who share the same interests. Teamwork is good stuff!

We've created a form for you to fill in and once we compile your answers, we will have better ideas for future class plans. Please check your emails and share your goals with us.
