Goals are what drive the pursuit of excellence. Set the right goal and everything else will align itself with your efforts.
Not all of us want to be Pro-athletes. The spectrum of athletic pursuit starts from a couch potato who wants to dramatically change his/her lifestyle, to a sports enthusiast who thrives on the prospect of a new challenge, to a seasoned pro-athlete who has played the field for a long time. The one thing that they all have in common is a goal.
Hence, setting of this said “Goal” becomes imperative to the beginning of an athlete’s career in sports. But goals cannot be set lightly, they should be carefully and honestly selected for them to be challenging yet achievable.
Here are some factors you should keep in mind while choosing a goal:
- YOUR ASPIRATION
- HONEST ASSESSMENT OF ONE’S PHYSICAL CAPABILITY
- HONEST MAPPING OF ONE’S MENTAL STAMINA AND TEMPERAMENT
- UNDERSTANDING FINANCIAL CAPABILITIES AND LIMITS
- TIME MANAGEMENT
- INJURY MANAGEMENT
- LIFESTYLE
- SUPPORT FROM ONE’S IMMEDIATE SOCIAL SPHERE
