Tips for Setting Goals Effectively: Set Specific, Measurable Goals

Excerpt from the LEAP Module: Goal Setting for Higher Performance

Set Specific, Measurable Goals
If you achieve all conditions of a measurable goal, then you can be confident and comfortable in its achievement. If you consistently fail to meet a measurable goal, then you can adjust it or analyze the reason for failure and take appropriate action to improve skills.

Being specific and measurable requires that you define the who, what, by when, where, and how. Questions you might ask yourself include: Who is involved in this? Where does this take place? How will I know if I am making progress?  How should this be measured? How much? How many?

The result should be a much more specific and measurable goal.
General: I'm going to exercise more.
Specific: I'm going to swim at the community pool at least three times per week for the next six months.
