Part 2: How Well Are You Attaining Your Goal of Completing PathwayConnect?
Think back on W06 Life Skills Lesson: Goals and Habits. Completing PathwayConnect can be seen as a mid or top-level goal. Is there
evidence from the time tracker above that you are actively working towards this goal? If yes, what is the evidence? Is it enough to
help you attain your goal of completing PathwayConnect? Why or why not? If no, indicate what you can remove from your schedule
to make room for more studying.
I try to dedicate at least 1 hour a day to study and do the tasks for pathway, but some days I have too much work, so I guess I can go
to bed earlier and not watch TV so I can get up earlier and dedicate more time to study pathway and get everything done on time
but I actually think I’m doing a good job with my schedule about pathway
Part 3: Write Lower-Level Goals
Think back on your reading about goals and habits. Completing PathwayConnect can be seen as a mid or top-level goal. Write at
least three lower-level goals that will help you reach the higher goal of completing PathwayConnect. Each goal should relate to your
use of time. Try to make your goals SMART (see the reading from this week).
Example: To reach my goal of completing PathwayConnect, I will
Study at least 12 hours per week
Do at least three of my study sessions per week at a designated quiet space
Every day, I will relax for 30 minutes and remind myself I can do this!
To reach my goal of completing PathwayConnect, I will
Study at least 3 hours on Saturdays and at least 1 hour the rest of the week days
Every day I will relax for 15min before starting my studies and 15 min after finish my studies
I will pray every day before starting my studies and dedicate at least 1hour every day to read the scriptures
Go on to Part 4
Part 4: Create a Pacing Guide
A pacing guide helps you work on the lower-level goals you set above. It should help you plan your time through a typical week.
Include any activity that you feel will impact your goals.

Please answer the questions on the next page
1. Fill these in according to the time you recorded in the chart above.
Each week, I dedicate 11 hours to my first goal from Part 3 above.
Each week, I dedicate 4 hours to my second goal from Part 3 above.
Each week, I dedicate 9 hours to my third goal from Part 3 above.
2. How will this pacing guide help you attain these lower-level goals?
It will help me to administrate better my time so I can dedicate it to the most important task in order to help me achieve my goals,
this way is easier to identify where I’m spending my time and where I can increment or reduce the time I’m spending.
Save this document with your name in the filename, and follow the instructions in your course to submit it for grading and feedback.
You may also find it helpful to print and post this in a place to remind you of your study pace.
