  1. Today’s Learning Goal I will learn strategies for personal goal-setting and self-discovery by reading “Begin with the End in Mind” by Sean Covey and answering reflection prompts.

  2. Habit 2: What does it mean? • Having an “End in Mind” means developing a clear picture of what you want to accomplish in life. Why do we need it? • We need to determine a vision now, before it is too late. It’s not about knowing every little detail, it’s about having direction. • If you don’t have direction, you could end up going the “wrong way” and wasting your time.

  3. Habit 2: “The Crossroads of Life” • “Crossroads of Life” include important life-changing decisions that you should consider before making choices that could impact your development as a person Examples: • Do you want to go to college? For what? • What type of friends do you want to have? • Will you have sex before marriage? • Will you drink or do drugs? • What are you looking for in a career?

  6. Habit 2: Three Watch-Outs • Negative Labels • “If you’ve been falsely labeled, you can live with it. The real danger comes when you start to believe those labels yourself.” • “It’s All Over” Syndrome • Teens sometimes feel it is, but it is never over. Simply learn from your mistakes. • Wrong Wall • “We are often so busy climbing the ladder of success that we don’t that we never take the time to see if our ladder is leaning against the right wall.”

  10. Habit 2: Key No. 4 • Use Momentous Moments • Harness important moments in your life to set goals. • Learn from tough experiences. • “Character is the discipline to follow through with resolutions long after the spirit in which they were made has passed.”
