SEL Tip of the Week: Set One Small Goal (Abrha) All Classes-Updated

Start your week by setting one small, achievable goal. Whether finishing a homework assignment, getting outside for 10 minutes, or trying something new, breaking tasks into smaller steps can help reduce stress and boost confidence.

Here’s how to get started: 1. Pick a goal that feels manageable (e.g., “I’ll read 10 pages of my book today” or “I’ll finish one math problem set”).

2. Break it down into tiny steps. Instead of focusing on the whole task, consider the next small action (e.g., open your textbook, and read the first paragraph).

3. Set a time limit—even 10-15 minutes can help you get started.

4. Celebrate progress! No matter how small, give yourself credit for taking a step toward your goal.

One small goal today can lead to big wins tomorrow!
