@Bob Try getting an accountability partner to work the goals together, you’ll be surprised how that increases the commitment levels. And I hope there’s really something you’ll gain through reading Goal Setting College

Goals have always been a challenge for me. Sure, I understand the importance and have books on the subject. Weight loss is a good example. S.M.A.R.T goal set which includes exercise. Do the “e” word for a few days then stop. The whole goal goes out the window. It’s as if there is no connection with it. It is important and there should be a good enough “why” linked to it, but the commitment just isn’t there. I’ve been through a number of goal setting workshops from Anthony Robbins to Zig Ziglar. Looking forward to reading everything on this site and hopefully glean some new information that might help.

I read about the reference to this Yale University study in “The Magic Lamp: Goal Setting for People Who Hate Setting Goals”. Can’t remember the page though
