Long Term Goals and Assessment for learning

Long Term Planning is the best practice when you are willing to have success at no risk cost. It helps in giving a chance to experiment and assess our skills and implement new ideas which could improve our performance and could result in success and many a time if long term planning is implemented properly, the success rate could be very high and helps in goal achievement. Let us now discuss how we could learn and work better with proper long term goal planning.

As i've already discussed, long term goal planning gives us a chance to explore different skills and methods through which we could assess our goal path. The main criteria for this should be that initiall we should decide a system and method in which we are going to work. For this, we should properly assess our skills in the field or the way you want to learn. When you have explored different ways of learning like learning through observation, learning by listening, reading and writing. We should be able to experiment with different ways and should stick to two or three best practices. And with this we could start the process by applying the best of our skills and then properly utilizing them.

Once we have started the process of learning(or working towards a goal), all we should do is assess the pitfalls and then work to better ourselves where we feel we might lack. This helps in reducing any of our backdrops and increases self confidence. With long term planning, we always have the opportunity to correct our mistakes and work towards commitment.

Common Mistakes:

The most common mistake we do with long term goal planning is that we tend to overlook the time we have and waste a lot of time unnecessarily and then fall short of time.

As we think we have a lot of time, we divert from our schedule and the schedule keeps changing. This should never happen. We could be lenient sometimes but we must always have gaps in the schedule while planning itself to accomodate these rests.

If we plan the schedule tight, there is a chance for us to relax the schedule and when this tends to happen more, we loose interest in the subject and might drop from the track. So it is very important that we plan the time that we want to relax too, so that we don't feel out of reach or loose confidence.

There is always a different approach for each of us when it comes to long term planning but at the end of the day we all would obviously work to achieve our goals. The main point here that i would like to stress is that there is more chance of ignoring long term planning than short term planning as we become lenient with time and then shift to short term planning which reduces the quality of work. So we should always see to that we plan our things as early as possible.
