Planning Vision Mission Strategic Goals Smart Objectives Action Plan

Why is knowing the Vision Important? Know where we are heading. p Evaluate alternative actions and routes. p Prioritize actions. p p Disagreements about the way are much easier to solve than disagreements about the direction

A Journey… What do we need for a successful Journey? ▫ Reason / Motive ▫ Vision - Destination / Direction ▫ Critical success Factors (CSF) Good Route, Gas in the car, good tires, . . etc ▫ Measures or KPI’s ▫ Action plan

A Journey… Failing to Plan is the same as Planning to Fail

No planning = Failing Think of a goal as your final destination, if you don’t know what your final destination is, there is no way to plan on how to get there.

Definition of a Goal A Goal is: • A Dream with a deadline. (Napoleon Hill) • Within your control • In Writing

p Video

Why Failure? The goal was not incorporated into a realistic plan that includes measurements, timelines and resources. p Sometimes we don’t know who we really are, our talents, potentials and powers p It is not only Effort and Creativity that matters p The person who set the goal has not told anyone else for added accountability, help and support. p Sometimes we lose the Vision of what we really need p

The Benefits of Setting Goals Suffer less from stress and anxiety p Concentrate better p Show more self-confidence p Perform better p The Happier we become p

Strategic Goal A Dream with A Deadline

Setting SMART Goals If goals aren’t reachable, they aren’t worth making. All you have to do to set realistic goals is follow the SMART goals guidelines.

SPECIFIC • What details do you want to accomplish? • “I want to do better in my Spiritual Life” • “I want to increase my daily Prayer from 5 min to 20 min.

MEASURABLE p All goals should have a way to evaluate whether or not they were accomplished. p “I want to train myself to know God’s will in my life. ” p “I want to sit at least half an hour a day with my Bible. ”

ATTAINABLE • Goals must be something you are capable of reaching. Which one would be a better goal for Ghana Team? “We will help Ghana to know Christ” “We will start with a Fun day in 5 Schools in our next Mission.

RELEVANT • Make goals that are important to you and your lifestyle. Which goal is better for an Evangelist? • “My goal is to discover a cure for Atheism” • “My goal is to inspire at least one person to become a true servant of God to labor with me in the Plentiful Harvest”

TIME - BOUND • Make sure that you have a time set as a “dead line” so your goal is not unending. • “Our goal is to be able to turn Ghana to Christians. ” • Our goal is to have a Coptic Priest in Ghana within 3 Years.

Does a person have to achieve their goals in order to be successful? NO Failure to meet goals only matters if you don’t learn something from your mistakes. Sometimes God has a better plan, which will serve the Vision more appropriately, as long as our Vision is IDENTICAL to our Lord’s Vision
