Goals must be SPECIFIC & PERSONAL TO YOU

A goal of stronger, faster or slimmer is too vague to be of real use. To be effective, a goal must be concrete and specific. For example:

• ‘I want to be the ideal weight for my age, height and gender’ (e.g. 74 kg or 160 pounds)
• ‘I want to compete in this year’s local/national marathon’
• ‘I want to be able to play ball with my kids without losing my breath or thinking I’m going to have a heart attack’

Part 1: Goals must be realistic and achievable
Part 2: Goals must be specific and personal to you
Part 3: Goals must be measurable
Part 4: Goals must have a time frame
Part 5: Goals must be written down
