Success Strategies
How to Set a Goal (DAPPS)

To be effective, a goal needs five qualities. You can remember them by applying the DAPPS rule. "DAPPS" is an acronym, a memory device in which each letter of the word stands for one of five qualities:

Dated. Effective goals have specific deadlines. A short-term goal usually has a deadline within a few months. A long-term goal generally has a deadline of a year or more, maybe even five or ten years away. As this date approaches, your motivation typically increases. This energy helps you finish strong. If you don't meet your deadline, you have an opportunity to examine what went wrong and create a new plan. Without a deadline, you might stretch the pursuit of a goal over your whole life, never reaching it.

Achievable. Effective goals are realistic. It's unrealistic to say you'll complete a marathon next week if your idea of a monster workout has been jogging around the block a few times a week. Still, if you're going to err, err on the side of optimism. When you set goals at the outer reaches of your present ability, stretching to reach them causes you to grow. Listen to other people's advice, but trust yourself to know what is achievable for you. Apply this guideline: "Is achieving the goal at least 50 percent believable to me?" If so, go for it.

Personal. Effective goals are your goals, not someone else's. Ask yourself if your current goals contribute to your personal dreams. If not, trade them in for goals of your own. You don't want to be lying on your deathbed some day and realize you have lived someone else's live. Trust that you know better than anyone else which goals and dreams are right for you.

Positive. Effective goals focus on what you do want rather than on what you don't want. So translate negative goals into positive goals. For example, a negative goal to stop being later to classes becomes a positive goal to arrive on time to every class. I recall a race car driver who explained how he miraculously kept his spinning car from smashing into the retaining wall: "I kept my eye on the track, not the wall." Focus your thoughts and actions on where you do want to go rather than on where you don't want to go, and you, too, will stay on course.
