A goal-setting framework that works
- To maximize the effectiveness of a goal, structure it with a positive approach. Because a negative approach like "stop me from gaining any more weight" adds anxiety and lowers persistence.
- Discouraging fear-based environments encourage people to try again. Reframe errors as opportunities to learn (error management).
- A positive approach provides clear guidelines and expectations. And so, they trigger positive emotions crucial to stay motivated.
