Did you succeed in achieving your action steps since the last meeting? If yes, please state which action steps you were able to complete. If no, please explain the challenges that you experienced. (If first meeting, write ‘first meeting’ here.): 
Yes! I worked on event specific drills and training exercises with youth athletes to prepare for the challenges of making it the Junior Olympics. I also tracked the progress of each athlete at a recent track meet to ensure that we were on pace for JO’s (Junior Olympics).
Please state your goal using the SMART Method: Specific: Avoid generalities! Your goal should have specific details so you know what you are achieving. Measurable: Make sure you have solid criteria for establishing your progress toward your goal. Actionable: You can clearly define action steps towards your goal Rewarding: Your goal must be something that is meaningful and worthwhile. Time Specific: Having specific dates for beginning and finishing goals keeps you on track. Example: “My goal is to receive a Sports Internship by May 1st”: 
My goal is to have 70% of the athletes I train to be awarded as the top 3 athletes in their events at the next track meet we attend.
Please list the action steps you will take to achieve your goals stated above. These are action steps that will be completed by next meeting. Example: “1. Finish my resume. 2. Talk with my advisor. 3. Submit a sports internship application at two institutions.”: 
1. Focus more on the technical aspect of performing in field events for track and field. 2. Give 1-on-1 training to each athlete to breakdown technical flaws that limits potential. 3. Assess athletes at the next track meet and give evaluations at the next practice.
How have the NSLS speakers or SNT meetings helped you achieve your goals or changed your life?: 
I have received a great deal of motivation and confidence boosters from the SNT meeting I recently attended. Members of the group help me maintain focus on the goals I have set forth and are pushing towards greatness and achieving those goals.
