261 Why Are The Sporting Goals That You Set Yourself Not Helping You

261 Why Are The Sporting Goals That You Set Yourself Not Helping You

In part 2 of David's exploration surrounding ChatGPT's and its response to the question What Can I Expect When Working With A Sport Psychologist, David explores the complexities of goal setting.

ChatGPT suggests setting SMART goals for performance and psychological well-being are part of working with a Sports Psychologist, which he is in agreement with. However, David points out that not all Sports Psychology practitioners are comfortable addressing psychological well-being. He goes on to emphasize the importance of goal ownership, discuss athlete's tendencies to set goals, and the distinction between outcome, performance, and process goals as well as a lot more.

Key Learning Points:

  • Goals are more powerful when they align with your personal core values.
  • Management of the number of goals you set is important to avoid overwhelm.
  • Tools such as the MTQ Plus (Mental Toughness Questionnaire) can assist Sports Psychologists and Coaches to recognise if athletes naturally set goals or not.
  • An athlete who sets goals and an athlete who doesn't set goals should be supported differently.
