Goal Setting Glossary

What is a goal setting?

Goal setting in broad terms is the process of deciding on something you want, planning how to get it, and then working towards the objective.

Goal setting is not wishing or dreaming. It is something that is progressively worked towards. Goal setting is a process, it is not something that decided on a whim.

An example is when you want to go on a summer holiday:

You decide where you want to go to.

You make the reservations.

You get the car ready.

And then the day arrives.

Car packed, you depart on your journey, and keep going, until...

You arrive at your destination - and enjoy!
