GATHER INFORMATION
Think about what you would like to accomplish next term. What new challenges might you face? Is there a goal you didn’t achieve this term that you’d like another crack at? For more ideas, review your ACES scores and Figure 14.1. Is there a strength you’d like to develop further or a low score you’d like to improve?

ACT AND EVALUATE OUTCOMES
Because you’re setting a goal for next term, you can’t record your action steps and evaluate whether you have achieved your goal just yet. But you can make a commitment to pursue this goal. In fact, you can set a reminder in your calendar this very minute so that you’ll follow up next term and implement your action steps.
