Writing clear goals

NDIS goals are similar to setting targets or objectives for yourself or your loved one. They are destinations you want to reach with the support of NDIS. These goals are crucial because they keep you motivated and focused on what is most important for your overall well-being. They help you track your progress, celebrate your achievements, and customise your NDIS plan to your specific needs and aspirations.
Parent goals
Writing goals for your child's NDIS plan is like preparing a roadmap for their life, where you personalise their support and measure their progress. You start by dreaming big, breaking those dreams into achievable steps, and being as clear as possible. You can adjust the plan as new opportunities or challenges arise. These goals provide the best possible support for your child and help them achieve their dreams.
Ready to start dreaming? I’ve put together a PDF guidebook of sorts to help you plan out and write your child’s goals. It’s about a billion times easier to follow than Ikea assembly instructions and way more satisfying to complete. Give it a go here:

Everyday goals
Setting everyday life goals for your NDIS plan is like tailoring your routine to your preferences and needs. These goals are your way of saying, "This is how I want to live my everyday life." You start by imagining your ideal day, breaking it down into achievable steps, and being as specific as possible. You can adjust the plan as life changes. These goals ensure that your daily routine is full of activities you enjoy, small achievements, and a rhythm that resonates with your unique life tune.
Here’s a nifty PDF guide that simplifies the goals-setting experience for those with an NDIS plan. This can be done with the help of a parent, support worker, therapist, or friend.
