Part I
My Strengths & Goals
Read the following carefully and think about how it applies to you:
In thinking about your strengths, think about an activity that meets the following
criteria:
If the majority of your job has you engaged in activities that are strengths, you are
much more likely to:
Turn out stellar performance
Enjoy what youre doing
Be intrinsically motivated
Be happier and more pleasant to work with
Paying attention to your strengths will be a win for you, for your manager, for your coworkers, and for whomever your work ultimately benefits (whether thats clients, project
participants, communities, nations, the planet).
(Marcus Buckingham, author, Go Put Your Strengths to Work)
Section A: My Strengths
Reflect upon your strengths. Then, insert pictures here that describe your
strengths or what others have said were your strengths.
Give an example of how you will apply these strengths to achieve success this
semester at KCC.
Because I have perseverance, I wont give up when times get difficult. When
exams and homework assignments get crammed all together, Ill prioritize my
work and get things done in an orderly fashion.
Related to your academic and career goals, where do you see yourself.
In five years?
In five years, Ill be 25 years old so hopefully Ill be finishing up my study in
Interface Design and graduating with a bachelors degree at the Art University in
San Francisco. Hopefully by then Ill have a job waiting for me.
In 10 years?
In 10 years I see myself financially stable and out of school and having a
permanent job at a company.
Part 2
My Learning Plan
This section will be discussed in your group appointment (with your
Kahikoluamea counselor).
Based upon your strengths and future goals that you stated in Part I, please
complete the following:
A. My Need:
What is your main need/challenge that you will address in order to be
successful in college this semester?
My motivation needs help because I tend to lose my motivation and I need
to learn how to organize and prioritize my timing and scheduling with life,
work, and school.
B. Resource/Action:
What resource or action will you take to help you to meet this
need/challenge in college?
I will use a daily planner to jot down the important information assignments
that need to be accomplished.
What are at least two other resources here on campus or at home that I can
use to be successful?
New Media Arts counselor, and exploring career websites.
I plan on writing all my homeworks and essay due dates ahead of time in my
planner so that I am aware of whats ahead of me in the future so I can have
better time management throughout the semester. To keep track of the
completed assignments in my planner, I plan on highlighting all the
completed work to keep track of what I have completed. I also plan on
having one of my close friends check up on my work at the end of the week
so that I can make sure that I am kept up with everything.
