Based on your learning in this activity and your understanding of the planning process, you will now create your own plan. Your goal is to identify important elements and considerations of your plan using the five step planning process.
First, think about a goal or an objective that should be able to be achieved through the planning process. This might be graduating from high school and being accepted into a post-secondary institution or finding a job. Perhaps it's starting a new business venture, planning for a trip to Europe or saving money to buy your first car. Think of a situation where you can identify objectives and use the planning process to accomplish it.
Complete the following in any format you prefer to use. That might be in a word processed document, an electronic presentation, an audio podcast, a video blog, etc.

-Defining your objectives:
-List your main objectives and make sure they are clear and measurable.
-Determine where you are in relation to your objectives:
-Have you accomplished any of the required work yet?
-How much work still needs to be accomplished?
-Anticipating future events:
-Identify some potential unknown variables that could come up in the future that might affect reaching your objectives.
-How will you handle and plan for each of those?
-Consider alternatives and make the plan:
-Identify at least 3 potential alternatives.
-Identify advantages and disadvantages for each alternative.
-Decide on an alternative and make a basic step-by-step plan on how you are going to get there.
-Implement your plan and evaluate the results:
-Identify how you would determine if the plan is successful or not? What is the evidence that you have achieved your plan?
-How can you measure this?
-What might you consider doing next time to improve the plan and planning process?
-Creativity:
-Identify how you might have to use creative thinking throughout the planning process.
-Problem Solving:
-Explain how one of the problem-solving strategies (explored earlier) might be helpful in creating the plan and making sure the plan's objectives are met.Be sure to use the Creating a Plan Checklist below to self-assess your work before submission.
