Episode 23 - Progress, Not Perfection: Setting Realistic, Attainable and Measurable Goals in 2021 and Beyond

Happy Friday, North Texas!

Jan 1 2021 • 27 mins

With January comes the dreaded New Year’s resolution — but what if we all focused on more realistic, attainable goal setting instead? On this episode of UNT Pod, Dr. Michael Savoie — a clinical professor of operations, logistics and supply chain management in UNT’s G. Brint Ryan College of Business who also has served as a certified trainer in the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and Brian Tracy’s Phoenix Seminar on the Psychology of Achievement for more than three decades — walks us through the best approaches to goal setting.

In this episode, we discuss:

● The difference between resolutions and goals

● The best ways to track and measure your goals

● The importance of setting goals based on the present, not the past

● How to develop SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, time-bound) goals

Featured in this episode is:

● Dr. Michael Savoie, clinical professor of operations, logistics and supply chain management in UNT’s G. Brint Ryan College of Business and a certified trainer in the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and Brian Tracy’s Phoenix Seminar on the Psychology of Achievement
