 Questions in a Box
Give each participant a piece of paper and a pen or pencil. Ask
them to write down a question that they would like to ask
to get to know someone else in the group. Instruct
participants to create questions that require more than a simple
yes or no as the answer. Fold all the questions and place them in
a cup, bowl or other size-appropriate container.

Choose one person to start the activity. Ask them to retrieve one
question from the container and answer it. Pass the container
until each participant has answered a question.

“to activate”

Business School.
• Persistence is the continued effort towards a goal even though obstacles may
exist. An example of persistence would be giving focused and continued efforts in completing the courses with
good grades and learning in order to earn a degree although it requires a significant investment of time, energy,
and resources.
• Intensity can be seen in the concentration and vigor that goes into pursuing a
goal. For example, one student might coast by without much effort, while another student will study regularly,
participate in discussions, and take advantage of research opportunities outside of class. The first student lacks
intensity, while the second pursues his educational goals with greater intensity.

Principles of
Goal Setting
Batch: BBA
Anyone who can Recall?

What was a dream you had as a child?

(great for a visioning/goal setting
workshop).
 There are three types of people

One that make things happen

Those that let it happen

And the ones that don’t know what happened.

What one are you?

Specify one learning that stretched you
outside your comfort zone.
 Do you set Goals?
Tony Robbins says, “Progress equals happiness,” and setting
goals is what gets us there.
Write 4 short term and
4 long term goals of your life
The Two Key Questions For Compelling
Goal Planning
• Identify your goals:

What do you really want? What is the exact objective you desire?
A promotion at work? To take up daily 5 prayers? To achieve a specific GPA, To
become a speaker/writer/, to enrich your life experiences with all the goodness.

In order to set achievable goals, you need to have a clear outcome in mind. Something
almost magical happens when you take generalized desires and start defining them
more precisely through detailed goal-setting.
• Identify your purpose:
Why do you want to achieve this goal? What will it bring you?

• Will that promotion give you the financial freedom you desire? In order to
keep your goals, you need to ask the right questions and seek real change in
your life.
Your Dream + Action Steps + Target Date
= Goal
 Types of Goals

• Short-term goals
• Long-term goals

• Enabling Goals - Special Type of Short Term Goal. Enabling

goals are like stepping stones that help us measure
our progress toward reaching longer-term goals.
A short-term goal is
something you want to do in
the near future. The near
future can mean today, this
week, this month, or even
this year. A short-term goal
is something you want to
accomplish soon.

A short term goal is a goal

you can achieve in 12
months or less. Examples
include:
• Improve your performance
numbers.
• Change your job
• Learn a new concept.
A long-term goal is
something you want to do
further in the future. Long-
term goals require time
and planning. They are not
something you can do this
week or even this year.

Long-term goals usually

take 12 months or more to
achieve.

Here are examples of

goals that can take several
years to achieve:

•Graduate from college

•Save for retirement
•Have my own business
Factors to consider for Growth
 1. Develop A Growth Mindset
• Before you can begin the work that’s necessary to change, you have to believe
that change is possible. That’s why it’s so vital to nurture a growth mindset first
and foremost. Only then will you accept your potential and be willing to realize
it.
 2. Be Proactive
• You could wait for change to come to you, or you could go out there and make it
happen. It’s important to remember that you can create opportunities for
yourself AND take full advantage of the opportunities that present themselves.
 3. Know Yourself
• You have to know yourself, your traits, and your personality, and adapt your
approach to best suit the type of person you are.
 4. Accept Your Flaws
• Yes, you can always try to better yourself in any way, shape, or form you see fit.
But given that change is a lifelong process, you also have to accept that you are
not perfect and never will be. Think of yourself as a work in progress.
 5. Learn To Cope With Stress
• Life will send stressful events your way; that’s inevitable. But you have to
respond to these events. If you can approach any trial or tribulation with a
calmness and assurance, you will find them easier to bear and quicker to
resolve. Finding ways to deal with your stress is a must.
 6. Be A Better Friend
• The people you share your life with will have a
huge influence on your enjoyment of it.
• Likewise, you will have a huge impact on the
lives of others. By being a good friend to those
you care about – and this includes your family
too – you can be a source of joy and a pillar of
support.
 7. Shake Bad Habits
• Our habits play such a large role in our lives, and if you can break those that
might be detrimental to your well-being, you can shift your life in a more
positive direction. Whether that’s quitting smoking, checking your phone less
often, praying all the prayers, quitting manipulation, conquer your bad
habits and watch what happens.
 8. Improve Your Communication
Skills
• How we interact and communicate with other people underpins much of our
daily lives. By learning to communicate your thoughts and wishes more
effectively, and by listening to and understanding those of the other person,
you can counterfeit a conflict, be a better friend, help things run smoothly, and
reduce the risk of confrontation.
 9. Read More. Read Often.
• Nothing is more powerful than the treasure of knowledge and the best way to
acquire this treasure is to read as much as you can. Research has proved that
acquiring new knowledge satisfies an individual’s thirst for competence, which
makes them eventually happier. You must develop the habit of reading books
that will help you to acquire new skills and as well as to polish your existing
skills.
 Where Goal Setting can go Wrong
When goal setting is disorganized
• For example, When You don’t keep your personal and academic goals
separate
When goals are unrealistic
• For example, becoming a company CEO immediately after graduation is an
unrealistic goal
Goals that are ‘beyond’ your control
• For example, winning the lottery is definitely beyond your control
When goals are vague
• For example, “becoming successful” or “becoming a better student” are not
clear goals to work.
When you set too many goals
• At any one time you should focus on achieving only three or four goals
