Intrinsic Motivation
Effective goal setting taps into
individuals' intrinsic motivation, which
comes from within and is driven by
personal values, interests, and
aspirations.
When goals align with an individual's core
desires and values, they become
inherently motivating.
Understanding what truly inspires and
drives us helps set goals that have a deep
sense of meaning and purpose.
Goal Specificity
Setting specific goals enhances
motivation and focus. Vague or general
goals lack clarity and can be challenging
to pursue.
Clearly defining goals, including specific
actions, timelines, and outcomes,
activates the brain's cognitive processes,
making the goals more attainable.
Specific goals provide a sense of
direction and serve as a roadmap for
progress.
