Tueday was a great day! We went over some goal seting strategies with Joe H. Here are some notes from the presentation:

Example: Win a certain race race
 * DRAWING OPPORTUNITY! OUTLINE A SMART GOAL ON THE "COOL STUFF" PAGE AND YOU WILL BE IN THE DRAWING FOR SOME COOL GEAR ON TUESDAY!**
 * Types of Goals:**
 * Outcome goal-** End result based, Less controllable because of other people or conditions. This kind of goal is motivating and something to strive for.

Example: Ride this many days ..
 * Process goal-** THis is a goal that is something you can do to make yourself more likely to reach your best possible outcome.


 * When goal setting, consider:**

= SMART =
 * Systematic:** Have a plan. Break the larger goal into smaller achievable goals - process goals
 * Measurable:** There is growth or progress that can be measured to show improvement.
 * Attainable:** Goals should be reasonable based on your beginning point
 * Realistic:** All factors in your goal should be based on what you can realistically achieve
 * Time Bound** : Goals should be able to acheived within a reasonable time frame

Goals should be not too hard or easy.

Make them hard enough to push you every day.

Look to a peer or someone who has achieved that goal for guidance, reference, and support
