When setting a goal, you'll need to choose from these two measurements. #goalsetting #shorts

Now, there are two methods of measurement you'll need to choose from. One is quantitative. The other is qualitative. Deciding which method to use can be tricky. Is dependent on the type of goal being set. A quantitative measurement should be used for goals that can more easily be measured numerically. An example of a quantitative measure can be time or distance. A qualitative measurement can be used for goals that are more difficult to measure numerically, such as teamwork. How do you measure that? So an example of a qualitative measure can be on a 1 to 10 scale. Now, when measuring goals, a quality quantitative measure is strongly preferred. Why? We want to be as specific as possible. See what our actual progress is. Remember, smart goals are specific and measurable. That's the S and the M. Once you've decided quantitative or qualitative, you'll then need to decide the system of measurement you should use and then the associated units of measurement within that system. So, for example, a system of measurement could be something like time. And the units of measurement could be minutes. The system could be weight, units could be pounds.
