Select a goal-something you would like to change about yourself. Perhaps you would like to stop smoking, control drinking, improve study habits, manage time better, or change eating or exercise habits. It is critical that your goal be measurable, attainable, positive, and significant to you.
Describe the goal as target behaviors. What specific behaviors do you want to increase or decrease?
Choose a means of monitoring your progress, such as a chart or a behavioral diary.
***Please make sure that you are writing a personal goal paper with a goal that you are measuring. This is not a previous goal this is a new goal.
The behaviors that you are changing need to increase or decrease and your paper needs to tell me how you measured this and what the end result was.****
