Activity 7: Skills, Abilities, Resources
The third task is to determine what obstacles may be in your way. Basically, you must ask yourself how you will go about accomplishing your semester goals given your skills, resources, and abilities. Then, examine each obstacle and try to envision it as a successful milestone or marker for that goal. You might also want to do the same thing for your long-term goals.

Brian: There seem to be a lot of obstacles in the way of my setting goals.
Deena: What kind of obstacles?
Brian: Well, the first is finding enough time to do this. I mean, finding the resources, determining goals, and thinking!
Deena: Well, if you are to make the most of your college experience, at some point you're going to have to think!
Brian: You're right! I do want to get the most for the money I'm spending for my education. So, where can I find the time to think about this?
Deena: How about when you are walking between classes?
