Instruction: Setting goals are essential for us to determine what we want to focus on, why it is

important, and what are our plans to achieve it. By creating a realistic plan, we can take steps to achieve
that goal. Most importantly, is the ability to visualize your life during those important times. This method
is about self-reflecting on how or what you see yourself during these years and the actions you will take
to achieve it. Although, there may be challenges during those years; think of the possible challenges or
barriers that may prevent you from achieving your goals.

For this assignment, please complete the chart.
