Question

Explain why it is important to create measurable goals.

Answer 1

Similarly to why it is important to set realistic goals, recall that the purpose of setting goals is to help us work towards those goals.

What if our goal is not "measurable"? How will we know whether or not we have achieved our goal or whether we actually accomplished what we set out to do?

Thinking about it from this perspective should help you to understand why measurable goals are important

Answer 2

to see how far you will go to reach those goals

Answer 3

Measurable goals is where you set a time frame to see if by say today and the end of this week you want to run a total distance of 3 miles. That is an example of a measurable goal.
