Goal setting CVT can be helpful for all kinds of conditions.
However, before we dive into the application of CBT for specific issues, we need to decide what we
want to change.
We will focus on figuring out the goals.
You want to work toward goals that set us up for success.
Not all goals are created equal as you are thinking about your life and the ways and anxiety and depression
may be affecting things.
I recommend keeping these principles in mind as you set your own goals.
Be specific.
It's hard to tell when you've reached a vague goal like be more involved with your kids, whereas read
at least one book.
The day to your two year old is specific and easy to measure.
You should be able to tell when you've met your goals, so be sure to make them as objective as possible.
Find the right gear.
If you make goals towards you will feel discouraged like trying to build a bike up a mountain in a gear
that's too high.
But goals that are too easy are and inspiring, like coasting along in a gear that's too low.
Aim for the sweet spot.
Moderately challenging goals you can reach with a sustained effort at choose goals you care about.
You will have a little chance of meeting our goals if they aren't important to us for each group.
Think about why it matters to you and how we think it will improve your life along these lines.
Make sure the goals are actually yours and not just what someone else wants you to do.
