    SETTING GOALS FOR

    SUCCESS

    Instructor I:
    Keithlyn M. Bay, RPm
    What is your goal in life?
    IMPORTANCE OF GOALS

    GOAL – According to Coon


    (2001), a goal is a target or
    objective of a motivated and
    directed chain of behaviors.

    -Goals come in all forms and


    sizes; some can be reached
    quite easily while others entail
    more effort, careful planning, and
    a longer time to achieve.
    The anatomy of a goal-directed behavior all begins within
    the individual’s need, which is a lack or a deficit

    The presence of this need creates tension.

    This tension is the drive that builds up and directs the


    individual towards the goal.

    When the goal is reached, the need is satisfied and the


    tension or drive is reduced
    SELF EFFICACY

    As defined by Albert Bandura,


    self-efficacy refers to the
    person’s beliefs about his
    capacity to exercise some
    measure of control over his
    behavior and over events that
    take place around him (Feist &
    Feist, 2009)
    Self-efficacy is a concept that is neither biological nor
    hereditary. Rather, it is an attribute that can be learned
    and enhanced through the following (Feist & Feist, 2009):

    1.Mastery of Learning and Skills


    -Practice is necessary for the individual to have mastery. Pitfalls
    may happen along the way, but for each one that the person
    overcomes, he becomes better.
    2.A Good Social Model
    -Learning through observation is best achieved when the
    model is credible and trustworthy. Models inspire the person to
    do well and be the best that he can be.
    3. A Persuasive Environment
    -A social environment that is supportive elevates the morale of
    the individual and encourages him to perform at his best every
    time thereby achieving his goals.

    4. Physical Fitness
    -Competence for a physical skill initially requires that the
    person is in good health. Any sign of fatigue or physical
    weakness, disease or disability limits the activities/areas to be
    competent in.
    5. Emotional Maturity
    -This prepares the individual for the challenges and failures
    encounters on the way to his goal.
    -Emotional stability helps the person endure and persevere
    until the desired goal is reached. It gives him the hope and the
    strength to try and try again.
    MINDSET

    Carol Dweck is a Stanford


    psychologist who wrote the
    book, Mindset: The New
    Psychology of Success (2006).
    In her research, Dweck
    discussed that a person may
    be classified as belonging to
    one of two types of mindsets
    which is a manifestation of his
    beliefs:
    A person’s mindset influences how he behaves, how he
    handles success and failures and his capacity for finding love
    and happiness. These mindsets impact strongly on the
    person’s goals whether it be wanting to be somebody famous
    or acquiring things of value.
