00:00Now that we have seen the 12 steps that will make up our project, let's go
00:19Let's start working with the first one. This is where we'll use all three alternatives.
00:27of the project we have. Perhaps at this moment each of those alternatives does not yet have the
00:35elements necessary to be able to select which one we keep. So let's work on
00:44to fine-tune them so we can make a better choice. First, we'll take each one
00:52From those alternatives, we will define the project and its scope. In this case, we must
01:02It is important to avoid falling into generalities or definitions that are unclear and confusing. For example,
01:11We cannot define our project by stating the following: to decrease abortion cases or
01:21to help immigrants, because then it's not a well-defined project. We already saw that the word of
01:32God asks us to do things in an orderly and high-quality manner from beginning to end. And that is why we will
01:42to use the model known in English as SMART, which indicates that goals or objectives should always
01:52to have at least five components, which we will see later. The SMART goals model was created
02:01by George T. Dorian and helps us follow guidelines to define them correctly, giving us better
02:11possibilities of achieving what we want. The five requirements or components of a SMART goal are the
02:20Next. Specific or specific. The objective should be as concrete as possible. Anyone who
02:32To know your goal, you need to know exactly what you intend to do and how. For example, at this point and
02:42Regarding the topic of helping immigrants, we could describe your project as follows.
02:50Providing food to immigrants in the northern part of the city. With this, we are already...
02:59indicating what we are going to do. Give food. Who will be the beneficiary or beneficiaries? The immigrants. And also
03:12We have defined the scope by indicating that they are located in the northern part of the city.
03:21The second point is measurable. The objective must be measurable, therefore it must be a goal.
03:32quantifiable. In some cases it is complicated, but it must be measurable in order to analyze our strategies.
03:43Here we are going to improve the definition of our project from the previous example and add
03:51to the immigrants who are in the northern part of the city. We are already adding what we
04:07This allows us to measure the success of our project. We're adding that there will be 50 breakfasts. That is to say,
04:16We are using numerical figures. In some cases, these may also be percentages of improvement or of
04:25growth or percentage reductions, such as reducing traffic accidents by 10%.
04:35The goal must be ambitious. A challenge for us, but achievable. We must give them the opportunity.
04:49to readjust the objectives if there are changes in the environment. We must have objectives within our
04:57possibilities, both because of our available resources and our motivation to achieve it
05:05objective. We review our objective here and, based on what we just mentioned, we can adjust towards
05:15up or down. For example, if we consider that we can easily provide 50 breakfasts three times a day
05:24This week, perhaps we'll decide to please the Lord more and raise the challenge to 80 breakfasts a day from Monday to
05:33Friday. In that case, we would adjust our project definition and scope as follows: Provide 80 breakfasts
05:44Daily newspapers from Monday to Friday are distributed to immigrants in the northern part of the city. Note that in this
05:51The description also includes the same scope, noting that it is for immigrants in the area
06:01North of the city, we could perhaps adjust the range by either decreasing or increasing it.
06:10Relevant. It must produce fruit pleasing to the Lord. It must have an impact on
06:23for the benefit of others, especially those most in need. Here we could leave our definition
06:32of the project as it stands, or see if we can be a little more demanding. For example, something that in this case
06:42The project's results could be improved if we adapt it as follows: Provide 80 breakfasts
06:52daily from Monday to Friday to immigrants in the northern part of the city and provide them with medical service
07:01basic in the afternoons. If we already have the facilities, if we already have the most expensive resources, perhaps it's not
07:12It is so complex to find volunteer doctors and obtain donations of basic medicines to provide this
07:21additional service, taking advantage of the fact that the resources will not be used in the afternoons.
07:28The next point is time, timely. A timeline must be established. Each objective must
07:39be defined in time, as this will help us to mark the different stages that will allow us to reach the
07:48proposed goal. In this case, we must establish the date from which we plan to begin with this
07:57service. We could, therefore, complement it in the following way. Provide 80 breakfasts daily from Monday to
08:07Friday to immigrants in the northern part of the city and provide them with basic medical service starting on
08:17March 1, 2019. Now that the project is better defined, we can use the objectives method.
08:28SMART is also useful for defining tasks that may be complex. Let's now...
08:39SMART definition for each of the three projects we are analyzing. Let's review each of these three until we are sure.
08:51projects that meet the five components of SMART goals. Once we have the three projects with their
09:00SMART definitions, let's prepare a list for each of them with the tasks, activities and resources that
09:12We will need to carry them out. Continuing with the example, let's make a list of what is needed to be able to give the 80
09:24daily breakfasts from Monday to Friday to immigrants in the northern part of the city, as well as to provide them with the
09:33Basic medical service. At this time, it's not necessary to give it an order or sequence. Let's just make a list of the tasks and
09:44necessary resources that are more important without going into such fine detail, but that allow us to assess the complexity of each of the three
09:57projects represents. A task list for the immigrant food case might be the following: Secure a venue with capacity for 20
10:09people available in the mornings. This may lead to the need to establish schedules to distribute the times when these activities take place.
10:20Breakfasts. Obtain furniture such as a kitchen, utensils, plates, glasses, spoons, chairs, tables, etc. Find five volunteers per day for
10:37Prepare and serve the food. Find donors of ingredients to prepare the food. Create a committee dedicated to finding the ingredients.
10:50Resources on a permanent basis. Obtain the necessary operating permits. Gas, water, and electricity contracts. Establish a
11:04civil association. To find volunteer doctors and donations of basic medications. And another very important point that perhaps we could
11:17Including this involves talking to other institutions that provide this service so they can share their experiences with us. This can be incredibly valuable.
11:28This helps, since we often make decisions without knowing the implications they may have. Therefore, it is important to follow a process of
11:42Preliminary research. Once we have the definitions and task lists for these three projects, we need to compare them and see
11:56How does each one align with our gifts and, above all, with what we like and have dreamed of doing, to see which of the three is
12:08It fits better, motivates us more, and encourages us to carry it out with love and passion, to offer it to the Lord. With the three
12:20With the projects in hand, let's review them several times, add any missing information, and include notes.
12:32necessary. Don't forget that all three are still drafts. Let's review the pros and cons, and for each one, let's imagine
12:44How do we feel if we successfully complete it? How do we feel about giving this gift to the Lord? After doing all this, we should
12:57Include it in our prayer. So that the Lord may continue to guide us in choosing the course He wants us to take.
13:09In the next session, we will review which project you chose and begin working on developing the project plan.
13:21Take heart. It certainly won't be easy, but the Lord will always give you what you need to accomplish it.
13:32See you next week. God bless you.
