If I apply the System Development Life Cycle to achieving my goals in life then I would definitely use an adaptive approach, in fact I'm actually using one right now. Life could not be predicted fully. Unwanted circumstances would crop up now and again. We should be able to adjust and incorporate these circumstances into our plan of achieving our goals. I discussed about the spiral approach in my report, this is actually the model that I've been using. I also believe that every student is using a spiral approach in planning their lives. The first iteration of course is passing college, followed by finding a job, then doing well in it, then success in our chosen career follows. This concerns our chosen career paths only. Other plans may be born as we go on with our lives.
As for the steps (SDLC) needed to achieve my goals, here they are:
PLANNING
Everything starts with a plan. It would be difficult if we just go with the flow, so to speak. As for attaining my under-graduate degree, I also have a plan for achieving it. This plan involves, discipline, hard work, cooperation, understanding, honesty, and fun.
ACTION/IMPLEMENT
The next step after planning is implementation of the plan. Whenever an unwanted circumstances happen, this is incorporated and the plan is adjusted hence it is an adaptive approach. Probably additional effort and discipline would be needed so the unwanted circumstance would not be a hindrance to the achievement of the plan.
EVALUATION
As the plan for achieving my goals progresses, continuous evaluation of my methods are done so as to update the way I am handling things. If improvement is needed then it is implemented to the working plan, hence it is a spiral approach
Continuous planning, implementing and evaluating are done until the goal is achieved. In this way my methods in achieving my goals would continue to improve.
