Ep. 150 - Setting and Achieving SMARTer Goals

A month ago I started coaching a local junior varsity soccer
team, and I quickly found that many of the girls struggle with
motivation. So I’ve been on a mission lately to cultivate
intrinsic motivation and grit throughout the whole season – even
in those who may find themselves in a less-than-motivating
position! I’ve learned that a key ingredient to lasting
motivation is found in goals (and not just the scoring kind).
Setting both individual and team goals is one of the best ways to
get motivated. Consider this episode a crash course on setting
SMART goals on your own or with your team. Whether you are a
coach or an athlete, I hope you find this helpful as you work to
set good goals, stay motivated, and finish this year strong!


In this episode you will hear:


The difference between intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivation

What SMART goals are how to set them
