#20 What teens need to know to start goal setting S2.2
About this episode
Develop the habit of goal setting.
Start by writing them down. This will give you a map of where you want to go and also helps you keep your intention and motivations clear. You will build confidence as your stick to your plan, and can also notice when you might need some problem solving to get you back on track.
Start with performance goals - This is what you want to achieve, include both sport, school, relationships…
Then move to process goals - there are the efforts, habits and behaviours you can control and need to engage in on a daily basis to move you towards you goals. Make them measurable.
Find an accountability buddy who can support you.
And each night do a quick reflection of how today went, maybe a score from 1-10, or a celebration of something you did, or an area you can dial up tomorrow.
Top 3 Take Aways
- Process AND performance goals
- Reflection - follow up each day with how things went
- Accountability - enroll someone in the version of yourself that you want to be
