Personal Reflection on Goals

Directions:  Choose a topic and write 2 (or more) paragraphs focusing on:

1. A clear topic sentence or position statement in each paragraph
2. Supporting details for your position
3. Proper spelling and grammar

• “If you don’t know where you are going, most anywhere will do.”  Comment on this statement with what you know about goals.  Give two examples from your life or the lives of others that demonstrate or support the statement.
  
  
• If you could be or do anything you wanted in the next ten years, what would it be?  What kind of income would you like to have?  What would you need to do to make that happen?  Are you actually doing what you need to do?  If not, what do you need to do?
  
  
• Think of a financial goal (spending, donating, saving, investing) you have in the coming months or next few years.  Describe your plan for achieving it, including timetables for action.
  
  
• Write about a financial goal you set that you have already achieved or are close to achieving.  Describe what you have done to make it so and its impact on you.
  
  
• When it comes to giving or donating your time, talent, or treasures for the common good, what goals do you have for yourself for the future?  Are there any philanthropy goals you have already met or are working on currently?
