WHY DO GOALS WORK?

– Goals help determine what is important to you.

– Goals help maintain and sustain motivation.

– Goals increase effort and push you a little harder to be the best you can be.

– Goals increase the use of relevant learning strategies. To reach your goals, specific strategies (such as hitting with more topspin to keep the ball in play and reduce unforced errors) are implemented.

– Goals direct your attention and action. If your goal is to increase the consistency of your first serve, then you would focus on this aspect of your game during training.
