"I have gained a desire to lead myself even better in the future. I learned so much like setting goals and actually thinking about what I want to do in life ---> my personal mission."
-Noel, 9th grader
GOALS THAT GET RESULTS
By taking concrete, consistent actions toward their goals, your teen will:
Assess Comprehensive Growth
Define "growth" in each of the four dimensions of your life -- physical, mental, relational, and spiritual -- and identify where you need to focus your efforts for personal development.
Work Smarter, Not Harder
Evaluate your current efforts and determine if you need to invest more time and energy or redirect your focus towards different activities.
Plan Practically
Instead of overwhelming yourself with trying to do everything every day, this worksheet provides a practical solution to prioritize your tasks and get organized.
Hey there! I'm Brenda Jung. I mentor middle and high school students so that they will learn to lead themselves well--by empowering themselves with strong personal leadership qualities and skills. (Character first!)
What if students could cultivate the ability to value and enjoy the process of PERSONAL LEADERSHIP GROWTH?
They CAN!
Youth who value and enjoy learning, trying things, taking healthy risks, stepping out in faith, trusting God while doing their best...are going to do WELL in life.
Self-leadership development is the most essential investment youth can make in their future success--no matter what middle school, high school, college, career, or life plan they choose.
Success is growing, serving, and glorifying God by doing the most with what He gives to you, every single day.
I am committed to equipping teens with biblical Truth and critical personal leadership values, skills, habits, mindsets, and practices before they leave for college, by beginning with rooting their sense of self-worth in Christ's performance for them--not in their own successes and failures.
One of the best decisions you can make to give your youth a strong leadership identity is to introduce important, life-shaping skills--like goal-setting--while their hearts are wide open and impressionable. They will continue to grow in personal leadership through middle school, high school, college, career, and beyond!
This year is full of opportunities for your youth to grow in personal leadership. Will they take them? I'd love to encourage them! I hope you'll invest in developing your youth's leadership potential this year. I look forward to the possibility of partnering with you in your student's growth for the glory of God!
