- 😀 Achievement goals are for one-time accomplishments like finishing a course or completing a project, while habit goals are for ongoing practices such as daily exercise.
- 😀 Action-oriented goals should use verbs that require specific actions, such as 'write two blog posts per week,' not vague statements like 'be more consistent.'
- 😀 Set risky goals that push you out of your comfort zone. Aim for goals that make you slightly uncomfortable to increase success rates.
