Why is it that so many of our goals go unrealized? Because they’re not S.M.A.R.T goals: specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and timely. Fortunately, a counselor can help us set, keep, and achieve S.M.A.R.T. goals. If you think you could benefit from goal-setting counseling, reach out to Thriveworks Maumelle.
Specific: Specificity is key to setting good goals. Instead of saying, “I want to run more,” consider, “I want to be able to run one mile.”
Measurable: A measurable goal will allow you to set benchmarks for yourself so you can see your progress. To stick with the running metaphor, running “more” isn’t measurable; what does “more” mean? One mile, however, is measurable. With that measurable distance in place, you’ll be able to develop a plan that has you running farther each week.
Attainable: Make sure your goal is in reach. For example, if you’ve never run before, deciding to run a marathon in two months is likely too extreme, though it may become attainable at a later date.
Relevant: Goals are only worth setting if they’re relevant to you and how you want to grow as a person. Instead of deciding to learn to run because your friends run, you’ll be more successful if you have a genuine desire to run that mile.
Timely: Give yourself a timeline so you have an immediate urgency helping propel you forward. For example, “I want to be able to run a mile in six weeks.”
A Thriveworks Maumelle counselor can go over the S.M.A.R.T concept in more detail and help you apply it to your goals. Counseling isn’t just for those struggling with depression, trauma, or other disorders. The goal of counseling is to help you live your best life, and setting successful goals is part of creating that best life.
Whatever your goals, Thriveworks Maumelle counselors are ready to help you achieve them. We don’t keep a waiting list, and we can usually see you within the week of your call. Our expanded hours make seeking the help you need even easier—so don’t wait. We also offer evening and weekend sessions, and accept most major insurances.
If you’d like help setting and achieving goals, or if you need help in any other area of mental health, we’re here to help. Thriveworks Maumelle can be reached at (501) 628-9066.
