TOPIC 2 :

GOAL SETTING

5 July 2017, Topic 2, Lecturer Amira. One of study skills classes that I need to attend in this Interim Semestar. 

“You have to set goals that are almost out of reach. If you set a goal that is attainable without much work or thought, you are stuck with something below your true talent and potential.” -Steve Garvey

"There are a lot of people in the world. And where there are people,there are also have dream.And where there are dream,there are also goals in everyone mind in order to achieve their dream".

Since the topic for this week is "Goal Setting", I will explain about it slowly but steady.  

5th July 2017, Study Skills session, Lecturer Amira. I went to class in the hopes that the class I was going to attend was not boring and it was true that I thought it was. Lecturer Amira is the one who will teach my friends and I in this class. Lecturer Amira starts the class with a rather funny character at the beginning of the class as she does not know how to start her slide on the computer. At first,she start the class with an explanation of goal setting. 

A GOAL is a desired result or possible outcome that a person or a system envisions, plans and commits to achieve: a personal or organizational desired end-point in some sort of assumed development. Many people or organizations endeavor to reach goals within a finite time by setting deadlines.

After that,she begin to start her slide but she had a little problem to turn on the computer. While waiting for someone who will solve the problem, he begins to talk about the various types of scholarship offered by malaysia. "Hahaha",all the student in my class laughing at the her face reaction when telling about the lucrative job that a student can take after graduation. To be the story that she also did not missed to tell about her friends who received the scholarship offer.

So the basics that you guys need to know about this topic are characteristics of goal, academic and personal goal, and writting effective and statements of goal. Three things above are something very important in order to make the goal setting to become a reality.                                                                                                                                                                   As you can see on the left, there are one magic word that are very meaningful for someone that had success in their life. Always remember this word and believe that you will succeed someday.                                 

To make you guys more understand those word, the pic on the right hope can make you figure out more.
