☞ It helps you to decide on how to live your life, where you want to be, and how you want to be in the future.
How to Set Goals?
☞ We can use SMART method to set goals.
☞ SMART stands for :
S : Specific
M : Measurable
A : Achievable
R : Realistic
T : Time Bound
- Specific : A specific and clear goal
- Measurable : A measureable goal answers
- Achievable : Breaking down big goals into smaller parts will make the goal achievable.
- Realistic : A realistic goal would be something that we want to achieve and can work towards.
- Time Bound : A SMART goal should have a timeframe by when the goal needs to be achieved.
☞ This encourages us to take actions to completely fulfill the goals.
