HOW TO SET WINNING GOALS
Learn to set and accomplish resilient goals while improving your English.
Zastanawiałeś się czasem, czemu tak niewielu ludziom udaje się zrealizować noworoczne postanowienia? Może sam już nie jeden raz przekonałeś się, jak trudno jest wystawić sobie cel i potem konsekwentnie do niego zdążać.
Usłyszałem ostatnio świetną radę, która uświadomiła mi, co ja mogę zrobić, żeby moje cele były bardziej odporne na czynniki zewnętrzne. Po angielsku brzmi ona tak:
„Specificity reduces indecision”
W totalnym skrócie oznacza ona, że im bardziej konkretne są nasze cele, tym łatwiej nam się ich trzymać.
Jeśli jest dla ciebie ciekawy temat i chciałbyś o tym porozmawiać po angielsku, to zapraszam na zajęcia z wystawiania sobie celów – HOW TO SET WINNING GOALS!
Trzy spotkania po 60 minut każde. Sam decydujesz, jak często się spotkamy – codziennie, co tydzień, czy co miesiąc.
Koszt jednego spotkania to 150 pln. Jeśli zapłacisz z góry za trzy spotkania, zapłacisz 420 – 30 pln zostaje w twojej kieszeni 😊
Check out this sample video which illustrates what a S.M.A.R.T.E.R. goal is about.
