MTW Blog : Let's Take Charge and Go Head First! MTW Blog (9/9/10)

added by mtwmanager 616 days ago under FrontPage

By Shanice. Let's all go back to our youth and think about where you could go on wicked site visits, learn how to be independent, take control of your life, and move your life forward. Well, here at More Than Words is where I can do all those cool things.

To help us accomplish our goals every day, expectations are made. For example, we have the SCORD board, which is our inventory. SCORD stands for Store, Cafe, Online, Receiving, and Donations. The SCORD board is here for all youth to set and reach our goals everyday, and each day is different. I think of the SCORD board as a way to take baby steps in our business, which can also be applied to our everyday lives. We also have Transitions, where we individually take baby steps to move our lives forward. College professors and Education Coaches come in to help us achieve our goals. Each youth sets SMART goals, which can be about life essentials, education, and employment.

Setting goals has helped me become movtivated in school and in my everyday life. Before working at More Than Words, I had very little interest in my daily life, school, or employment. However, after becoming a part of More Than Words, I've realized what I can accomplish and am excited about planning for my future!
