Introduction

3. • A lot of people set personal and
professional goals this time of year
but very few succeed.
• That is because we often set goals
that demand great efforts and
compromise or in many cases we
are not well-prepared to achieve
them.

Introduction

4. • Recent research shows that
while 52% of participants in
a resolution study were
confident of success with
their goals, only 12%
actually achieved their goals.

Important - What the experts say about resolutions
Timothy Pychyl says that resolutions is an effort to reinvent and
motivate ourselves.
Psychology professor Peter Herman developed a principle that positive
affirmations about ourselves that we don't really believe, not only don't
work but they can damage our self-worth.

6. • Goals are supposed to help us
achieve great things.
• Research around goals demonstrates
that they work and outcomes are
improved when we set goals, focus
on them, and ultimately achieve them
– including in sports.
• In other words, if you really want it,
set it hard and work for it and you’ll
achieve it.

Why should we set up goals?

7. • But goals are not always beneficial and
there are times when our rigid
adherence to a goal leads to unwise
decisions, such as persisting with
training in spite of injury.
• Goals can lead to imbalanced
decisions where focus and attention
are only paid to what is being
measured reducing our feelings of self-
control, self-efficacy and self-esteem.

Strategies to develop goals
Be realistic
This is the time to “think small”,
both in terms of the number of
objectives and the timeframe in
which you plan
to accomplish them.
Focus on the positive
Consider things you’re good at and
set goals that are linked with such
strengths.
Keep perspective
It is important to set up deadline
since it helps us to keep your
perspective and focus on our goals.

Strategies to develop goals
Create a plan of action
To accomplish any goal you need a
step-by-step strategy.
So “you need to think about tactics.
Recruit support
An encouraging and supportive network
is critical to reaching your goals.
Set milestones
When you launch into working toward a
new goal, you feel inspired and
energized. But as the weeks and
months go by that initial motivation
decreases. To ease this problem, work
toward short-term targets that bring you
closer to your goal.
