Why is it important? • It has been suggested by scientists that everything you do all day – the way you act and the way you feel is directly related to your goals. • That is, if you are achieving them, you’re happy and excited. If you are not, you are frustrated and upset.
Di d you know...? • Setting goals will increase performance by an average of 19% • Of a group of students researched, only 3% set goals. Ten years later those 3% were earning ten times the other 97% combined • Most people give up on their new year’s resolution in January • The brain redirects itself towards what you focus on... (think of red cars and you’ll suddenly see loads on the road).
WHAT IS A ‘STRETCH’ GOAL? • Personal (it’s yours) • Realistic (at a stretch, you can do it) • End point (there’s a start and an end to it) • Positive (it’s what you want to do, not what you want to get away from) PREP-are your goals!
