I would like to make sure that I have all my ducks in a row

for the start of the CHOICE nursing program by the end of
this 8 week class. I would like to make sure I have my
books, and other materials needed such as stethoscope,
computer programs, scrubs, shoes, etc.
I will write a TO DO list and check off each item as
completed
This goal is achievable; I will need to make sure I have the
focus to get everything done that I need to. This will allow
me to start off the program without feeling the pressure to
get everything done in a tight window of time. This goal
does require the right amount of effort, and with the help of
my husband and family should be achievable in the next
three weeks.
Yes this goal is worthwhile and will make my life easier,
and knowing that is the greatest goal.
Yes, there is a time limit, 3 weeks and the deadline is very
realistic.

After answering the questions above, rephrase your goal into a SMART goal and rewrite your
Goal Statement:

Achieve everything needed, by making a To Do list and checking items off as they are completed and doing
this in the next 3 weeks.
