Successful goal setting

'Successful goal setting' is a fantastic and informative episode for those wanting to learn about, or be reminded of, the priorities we should have when planning and working towards achieving goals that will create a positive and purposeful impact in our lives.

Nat talks about the processes she uses to set goals, particularly when entering into a new year, and references the 'SMART goals' framework to highlight the crucial elements that goals require if we're to set ourselves up for success and long-term fulfillment. 

This is great episode to come back to anytime you need a quick recap on the more meaningful reasons why we set goals and why doing so in a thoughtful and structured way is well worth the effort if you're serious about making constructive, meaningful change and improvement in your life.
 
'SMART goals' were developed by George Doran, Arthur Miller and James Cunningham in 1981 and included in their article “There's a S.M.A.R.T. way to write management goals and objectives” in the Journal of Management Review.
