 |  Qualitative Goals in an Quantitative Manner
Steve wrote a post a while back on the topic of writing good, clear goals. I can't find the post right now, but the general idea was that if a goal is binary, that is, it's either achieved, or it's not, you're more likely to follow through with it. In that case, how do you write qualitative goals? Is the only effective way to do this to write it as a comparison of your current situation? What if your goals are a year off, how will you know if you've improved? |

If I recall correctly, he recommends giving that goal a 1 out of 10. At the beginning, give it a number (say 4) and make it your goal to get to 7. However, you need to be absolutely clear about what someone at 7 would act/behave/do/have.
