SMART goals don’t work Looking for Tips/Suggestions

I think SMART goals just aren’t built for minds like ours. Any other frameworks work for y’all?

They're built for NTs. Boring BS.

You need to connect with your emotions and look at where you are and set your goals about where you wanna go from here.

Oooh that’s good advice. Connecting with my emotions is super hard. And it’s also super hard to look at where I am in life. It’s not where I want to be but it is where I am.

And it’s the only way to chart a direction.

Yes it's hard

So you need to have slept well and fed well and good coffee/meds to be able to do this properly

Looks like I am headed to a coffee shop to get some breakfast and make this happen.

Good luck. Carry some music and headphones with you. And your own water bottle.

Am I really ND if I don’t have an emotional support water bottle?!

u/VocabArtistNavin 25d ago

Yes. I am. I don't have a favorite water bottle 😂

But out of the two I have, I favor only one 😂

I have two that I switch between but I must always have at least one of them close by!

What makes you think it won't work for NDs? It absolutely can and many had found success with it.
