Three Roadblocks To Effective Goal Setting


Every New Year begins with people everywhere declaring their New Year's Resolutions. In order for any desire, goal or plan to succeed, make sure you're not making any of the following mistakes:

1. You Don't Have a Well-Formed Outcome

There are six components you must have to have a Well-Formed, Attainable Outcome
  • Goal must be stated in the positive

  • Goal is feasible

  • It is measurable

  • The goal is initiated and maintained by you

  • It makes sense ecologically

  • It is worthwhile and represents who and what you want to be
2. The Consequences of Having Accomplished the Goal are Unspecified

It is important to look at the consequences from both a positive and negative point of view

3. There is a Conflict of Your Personal Values or Standards

It is important to weigh out all the personal values or standards associated with the goal.
