Goal-Setting: Gaining Tools for Success

Effective Goal Setting

Setting Effective Goals

All goals are not equal, and some give you a better chance at success. You want to set yourself up for success from the start of the goal-setting process by setting effective goals. Let's revisit those goals you've already identified and build on them using what was learned in this module.

Practice by reviewing your goals and editing them according to the qualities that make goals effective. Effective goal qualities include time-limited, achievable, simple, and specific goals. Download the Effective Goals worksheet here to complete the following steps:

STEP 1: Write down 3–5 goals

STEP 2: Put a star by ones that should be edited.

STEP 3: Practice rewriting them.

Dr. Ashley Schoener


My name is Dr. Ashley Schoener, and I am a postdoctoral fellow in clinical neuropsychology. I earned her PhD in Counseling Psychology from Ball State University, my master’s degree in counseling from the University of North Dakota, and my bachelor’s degree in psychology from Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania. I have worked in a variety of behavioral health settings and have clinical experience working with individuals across the lifespan. I have also conducted research, co-authored peer-reviewed publications, and presented at national conferences.

However, I have always had an interest in teaching and a passion for providing education to the public about my particular areas of expertise. My areas of interest broadly include affective neuroscience, cognition, and brain-behavior relationships. As such, I have plenty of knowledge to share on a range of topics. I believe learning is most effective when you are able to engage with the learning process, and this does not always have to feel like work. Our goal is to give you the opportunity to learn about some important new skills with a different approach than you're used to!

Courses have been developed for the purpose of education, in collaboration with screenwriter, Anthony Crutcher, and artist, Dennis Di Lorenzo. We are very excited to share our courses with you and hope you are able to learn something new from each one you complete!
