Setting specific goals can help establish new habits from "summary" of The Habit by Susan Morse

Setting specific goals is a crucial step in the process of establishing new habits. When we have a clear and measurable target in mind, it becomes easier to stay focused and motivated. Without a specific goal in place, it is easy to lose sight of our intentions and fall back into old patterns. By setting specific goals, we create a roadmap for ourselves, guiding us towards the behaviors we want to adopt. For example, if our goal is to exercise more regularly, we can set a specific target of going to the gym three times a week. This clarity helps us to prioritize our actions and make concrete plans to achieve our objectives. Moreover, setting specific goals allows us to track our progress and celebrate our successes along the way. When we have a clear goal in mind, we can measure our actions against it and see how far we have come. This sense of accomplishment can be a powerful motivator, encouraging us to continue our efforts and solidify new habits. Additionally, setting specific goals helps to hold us accountable for our actions. When we have a clear target to work towards, it becomes harder to make excuses or procrastinate. This accountability pushes us to stay on track and persevere through challenges, ultimately leading to the establishment of new habits.
