Instructional Update - New Year NEW SMART Golf Goals
Everyone has New Year Resolutions, what about changing your lifestyle or your your habits - creating a NEW YOU? That takes time / effort and a realistic SMART Goal. What is a SMART Goal?
S - Specific — What do you want to accomplish?
M - Measurable —How will you know you reached the goal?
A - Achievable — Is this realistic to your time, effort and commitment?
R - Relevant — Is this significant to your life?
T - Time Frame — When do you plan to achieve the goal?
What is a SMART Goal for Golf - "I want to drop my handicap below 15 by December 31, 2017. I will reach this goal by following a game plan to practice short game 3 days a week, have a weekly lesson, play 36 holes per week, and workout 3 days a week.” — Now if i work and my handicap is 25, this is probably not the smartest goal I could have made.
Lastly, do you have a partner to push you toward your goal? Most people will let themselves down and not practicing; but if you have a partner to help you meet your goals, then you are more than likely to commit to the goal at hand. Find a friend or a buddy to make SMART Goals together, you will find yourself much more successful and happier to share your troubles and your achievements.
