Tips for writing goals
The following tips can be followed when writing goals:
- Ensure that the goal is logical and fits personal capabilities and not outside of them; If someone is able to run only 1.8 km per day, for example, and sets a goal of running 2 km, this is not considered a challenge to the self as much as it is a frustrating goal.
- Continuing to focus on and think about goals; So that he does not forget her because of the things he faces in his daily life.
- keeping goals aligned together; So that they do not contradict or overlap with each other, and this can be ensured by creating a comprehensive plan for the goals.
- Formulating goals in a positive way and language; So that the desired things are identified to be accessed and not the desired things to get rid of them; For example, "I want to be more relaxed" can be said instead of "I want to be less anxious."
- Determining goals in as much detail as possible, away from generalizations, and from general expressions “I want to be happy.” What is correct is defining a specific behavior that must be done in order for a person to become happy.
