How to Take Stress Out of Goal Setting - Learn the Power of Whole Brain Goal SettingWhen you fail to achieve a goal, do you experience a stress response? Most of us do. It’s a natural reaction. It’s not so much the lack of goal achievement itself. More often, it’s the self-talk from your inner critic that does the job. In this episode of, "Mind Over Stress”, you and I look at a study published in the journal, “Behavioral Brain Research” that points to an effective way to craft goals that increases the probability of success.Summary of Whole Brain Goal Setting Process:- Create big, bold, and bright visualizations of your ultimate, BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) goal or destination;- Creat big, bold, and bright visualizations of subgoals or mile markers along the way;- Make the subgoals as small as needed to be easily achievable;- Identify and visualize possible points of resistance or roadblocks you may encounter. If you need to, return to the previous step and create even smaller subgoals;- Create two or more alternative responses to deal with those possible roadblocks;- Engage in the goal achieving behaviors right away. Take one or more tiny, tiny step immediately and keep moving to main momentum;- Monitor progress and adjust your behaviors and actions as needed to keep moving toward your ultimate BHAG;- Celebrate each success no matter how small;- Feel good as you move step by step toward that ultimate BHAG.Email address to get your copy of the, "Whole Brain Goal Setting" checklist at no cost.
