I have read all your 4 pages. These are *Unit 2: Goal Setting*. I will answer them step by step in simple way you can copy directly in your notebook.

### 1. WHAT IS A GOAL?

A goal is something a person wants and aims to achieve in the future. It is a desired result that needs effort and planning.

Example: Passing PLE in first grade, becoming a doctor.

### 2. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO SET A GOAL? AND HOW PLANNING & DECISION MAKING HELP?

To set a goal means to decide clearly what you want to achieve and write it down with a plan.

Planning and decision making turn dreams into achievable goals because:

- *Planning:* Breaks big dream into small steps, sets time, and shows what resources you need.

- *Decision making:* Helps you choose the best action among many options, avoid wasting time/money, and stay focused.

Without planning, a dream stays a wish. With planning, you know WHAT to do, WHEN, and HOW.

### 3. WHY ARE GOALS IMPORTANT?

- *At School:* Helps you to focus on studies, manage revision, improve performance. Ex: Goal to get 80% in maths makes you study daily.

- *At Home:* Helps you to help parents, save money, behave well. Ex: Goal to save 10k for books.

- *Future Career:* Gives direction for life. Ex: Goal to become an entrepreneur makes you learn business skills early.

### 4. IDENTIFY 3 SHORT-TERM AND 3 LONG-TERM GOALS

*Short-term goals (days - 3 months):*

1. Completing all homework this week.

2. Reading one book this month.

3. Saving 5,000 Rwf for study materials next month.

*Long-term goals (1 year - 10 years):*

1. Building a successful career in entrepreneurship.

2. Completing secondary school with good grades.

3. Starting my own shop after school.

### 5. TWO POSSIBLE OBSTACLES AND HOW TO OVERCOME

1. *Obstacle: Lack of money.* Solution: Save little by little, start small business, ask for support.

2. *Obstacle: Procrastination / Laziness & Distractions.* Solution: Make a timetable, avoid phone too much, use Eisenhower Matrix to prioritize.

### 6. WHY LEARNERS SHOULD VALUE CAREER GOAL PLANNING?

1. It gives direction and focus in studies.

2. It helps to choose right subjects combination.

3. It motivates you to work hard.

4. It helps to prepare skills early.

5. It reduces confusion about future.

### 7. CLASSIFY AS SHORT-TERM OR LONG-TERM

a. *Completing revision for a test this week = SHORT-TERM*

b. *Starting a business after completing school = LONG-TERM*

c. *Saving money to buy study materials next month = SHORT-TERM*

d. *Building a career in entrepreneurship = LONG-TERM*

### 8. ONE SMART GOAL FOR THIS TERM

*Weak goal:* "I want to improve."

*SMART goal:* "I want to improve my mathematics from 60% to 80% by end of this term by studying 1 hour daily and doing past papers every weekend."

SMART = Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound.

### 9. 3 ACTIONS NEEDED TO ACHIEVE SMART GOALS

1. Create a daily study timetable.

2. Get necessary materials and ask teacher for help.

3. Track progress weekly and adjust.

### 10. ABOUT KAGOYIRE - learner wants to improve performance and start holiday project selling hand-made items.

*a. Identify short-term and long-term goals:*

- Short-term: Selling hand-made items during holiday, balancing schoolwork.

- Long-term: Improving academic performance, starting business.

*b. Rewrite one goal as SMART:*

"I will make and sell 30 handmade bracelets and earn 20,000 Rwf during the 2-week holiday by working 2 hours daily."

*c. Two tasks and classify as urgent/important (Eisenhower Matrix):*

1. Doing homework due tomorrow = *Urgent and Important*

2. Preparing materials for holiday business = *Important but Not Urgent*

*d. Suggest one priority method and how it helps:*

Use *Eisenhower Matrix*. It helps Kagoyire to know what to do first, avoid stress, and balance school and business without failing.

*e. One challenge and solution:*

Challenge: *Time management* - schoolwork vs business.

Solution: Make a schedule, do schoolwork first in morning when fresh, business in evening, and ask family to help.

### 11. BEHAVIOUR THAT SHOWS COMMITMENT TO ACHIEVE GOAL

- Consistent hard work, not giving up.

- Waking early to revise, sacrificing free time.

### 12. HOW GOAL SETTING IMPROVES VISIBILITY AT SCHOOL AND HOME

- At school: Teachers notice you as hardworking and give you opportunities.

- At home: Parents trust you, give you more responsibilities because you are serious.

### 13. USING EISENHOWER MATRIX TO PRIORITIZE

Matrix has 4 boxes:

1. Urgent & Important = Do now (ex: exam tomorrow)

2. Important but Not Urgent = Plan (ex: long-term project)

3. Urgent but Not Important = Delegate (ex: small errands)

4. Not Urgent & Not Important = Eliminate (ex: too much TikTok)
