🎯Have you set goals for 2023? 💯
If so you should read this post and assess whether your goal is appropriate for you! 🤔🧐
“As an example, the process for setting goals in line with Locke and Latham’s (2013) goal-setting theory should involve an initial assessment of necessary moderators: commitment, knowledge, resources, and ability. If all of these moderators are present, a specific, challenging performance goal should be set (e.g., to reach 10,000 steps per day), with careful checking to ensure that the goal is perceived to be challenging/difficult by the individual. If any of these moderators are not present, then a specific, challenging learning goal (e.g., to identify and implement five ways to increase your daily step count) should be set; again with careful checking to ensure that the goal is perceived to be challenging/difficult by the individual (i.e., in terms of the number of strategies the individual needs to identify and implement). If a learning goal is set, the moderators should be monitored, and once commitment, knowledge, resources, and ability are developed, then specific, challenging performance goals should be set instead”
