“We…believe that one reason so many high school and college students have so much trouble focusing on their studies is because they don’t have a goal, don’t know what all this studying is leading to. ” Muriel James & Dorothy Jongeward 6
Research at Yale University • Researchers asked members of the class of 1953 if they has specific, written, long-term goals. • Only 3% did. • 20 years later, the researchers contacted the same graduates to see what happened to them. • The 3% with goals had lives that were measurable better that the 97% without goals. • The 3% who has set specific goals had accumulated more personal wealth then the other 97% put together On Course 4 th Ed, Skip Downing 7

Committing to your Dreams Do not doubt yourself, doubting discourages creative energies to develop a plan. A clear plan helps you stay on track and motivates you to reach your goals. Visualization will help motivate you to see the end results. Visualize your dreams then make them a reality. Workbook – page 58 On Course 4 th Ed, Skip Downing 17
