Episode 186 - Goal Setting

So you're telling me, if I just set some goal above my current performance—maybe even really high above my current performance—I'll just suddenly improve? And if I pair my goal with feedback, I'll perform even better? There's got to be more to it than just that. Oh, listen to this podcast about goal setting research and learn all you need to know? Ok, that'll be my first goal.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
