Setting Goals
|
The dust has settled a bit on all the tweets you may have been seeing about setting 2022 goals. A lot of the content I've seen on goal setting has been revenue based. Here's my take on two methods to set goals.
|
1. SMART goals
This is probably what you're used to seeing in books, goals should be
|
- Specific
- Measurable
- Achievable
- Realistic
- Time-bound
2. Choose an outcome.
I like to set my goals by linking them to an outcome. What do I mean? Here's the same goal, under each method.
|
|
|
|
Increase my flexibility to be able to touch my toes by the end of the year.
|
|
- It's Specific - be able to touch my toes
- Measurable - by whether I can reach my toes or not
- Achievable - I hope so.
- Realistic - Sure, I'm not saying I want to grow 10 inches taller
- Time-bound - by the end of the year. Sounds good.
|
|
|
Join a gym & do ten toe to bar exercises with straight legs (by the end of the year).
|
|
This links the same goal to an outcome. I may have other things I can link to the outcome. My inability to touch my toes might be linked to other things
|
- My diets not the best - is my belly getting in the way
- Other muscles may also be tight
Through linking this to an outcome, I can generally set my sights on improving in that area. The end result will be I should be able to touch my toes.
