PushStartHack 10: Avoid these 5 Mistakes I made with Goal Setting
Description
We all know that good lifestyle design starts with some goal setting, but using wrong frameworks and strategies on setting goals can be a setback. I was looking back on some of the goals I made and had a good laugh, "I want to be rich before 30". Sounds good at surface value but is the goal:
- Specific, (when and how am I going to do this?)
- Measurable (what does rich look like?),
- Attainable, (am I in the right conditions to make it work? Is the timeframe realistic? There might be somethings that I missing)
- Relevant (should I be focussing on income-generating while managing a tough course load or wait that out first?)
- Time-Bound(yes that is a deadline but are the ones closer?)
In this episode, I go through the thought process of setting SMART goals and how to avoid common mistakes.
