I am starting a new blog series that will discuss self-improvement and goal setting. So here's my first post which is related to effective goal setting.
It's only three months until the physie season starts so now is the time to set yourself some SMART goals if you haven't already done so. SMART is basically an acronym for the basic principles that your goals should have. Goals should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic/relevant and timely. They say that if you share your goals with others, you are more likely to achieve them so here is mine:
Now try to set some of your goals that you want to achieve. Remember to write detailed goals as this will keep you focused and give you direction. For example, a vague goal is 'I want to be more flexible', whereas a SMART goal like mine will clearly identify when I have accomplished my goal. Ideally the time frame of your goal cannot be too far into the future because then you would put off practising the skills needed for achieving your goal.
