At this stage, you already have a good idea of what you want to do. It’s now time to set goals.

Overall goal

This is the final goal.

Example
Project: a volunteer project about eliminating garbage accumulation in the neighbourhood’s streets
Overall goal: improve the neighbourhood’s sanitation conditions

Specific goal

Specific goals help you accomplish your overall goal. It’s different from the overall goal since it’s a specific outcome you want to achieve using the resources allocated in a given period.

Example
Project: a volunteer project about eliminating garbage accumulation in the neighbourhood’s streets
Specific goal: sustainably eliminate garbage accumulation in the neighbourhood’s streets within a year
