Best Outcome

Action Needed

Not Getting in the major I want.	Not doing my work and not studying so that my GPA is very low.	Study and do my work so that my GPA is high enough to transfer schools	Buckle down and get things done.
Letting Down my teammates and family.	I do poorly and my parents are unhappy with me in the summer.	I do well so my parents are proud of me.	Make good decisions and manage my time well.
Not being able to play lacrosse because I am ineligible.	I become academically ineligible so I am unable to play.	I work hard and make the honor role.	I need to study and do my work on time.

This week for motivation I use the strategy of academic fears. I found this useful because is allowed me to really think about what I needed to do and how I was going to accomplish these goals. I also thought that creating the chart was a good visual aid, something I could set as my background so that I can see it everyday. I feel like I could also add to this list as the year goes on.
