“Finishing a degree, establishing a family, a trip or a business, are great things in a person’s life. Therefore, setting a purpose requires being honest with yourself, if I really am a disciplined and persistent person or quickly abandon the things that I start, if I depend a lot on the mood or the help of another person, if I find it difficult to organize myself, etc. If I don’t have those personal factors that drive me to achieve the goals, the first thing I have to do is work internally, ”he says.
He also recommends avoiding comparing or measuring yourself with other people or getting carried away by social pressure. because everyone has their time and their own history ofe life; otherwise, the person will fall into frustration.
For his part, the educator Alberto Santelices agrees that the objectives must be real, according to the socioeconomic background of the person. “It is better to set few goals, but meet expectations,” she says.
Personal goals must respond to the level of abreaths that the person traces. Family members must be the result of dialogue between their members, including children. The same will happen with couples within an emotional and intellectual maturity.

For any goal it is prudent to abandon foolish optimism, be prepared to overcome conflicts between wishes and reality; evaluate them from time to time in order to introduce changes. To avoid conflicts between desires and reality, the planning of objectives and their administration must reflect the context in which they live.

“Praise, money and social approval (recognition) are the most powerful incentives.
On this plane, a negative consequence can lead to frustration, that is, to a state in which an impediment from the environment or itself (bad healthd, low intelligence, etc.) prevents you from reaching the goal. The aftermath can be very unpleasant.
