There's a lot of takes on the New Year and how it fits into our lives. There's the change-everything-starting-January-1 take. The New-Year-Same-Me take. The choose-your-word take. The pick-your-theme-song-take. There are SMART goals and stepping stone goals, personal goals and professional goals. Then of course there's the gentle twist that takes goals and turns them into habits and then stacks them, á la James Clear.r.

But what - she said with a gentle chuckle - about sneaker goals?

Yep, today I'd like to offer you a little twist on the whole goal smorgasboard. An activity your students can do this week as you return to school that will help them think through what they want from next year in a serious way, with a lighthearted frame.

They'll create vision boards... on sneakers. Paper sneakers.
