EP 80: Creating SMART Goals with Dr. Minni Malhotra


Listen Later

Studies have shown that losing just five percent of body fat can improve the symptoms of PCOS dramatically. While setting a goal of losing five percent of your body fat might seem like it's all too easy, not many people will actually achieve this. Join us today as we hear how Dr. Minni uses goals to achieve her dreams and her advice on how you can too. We dive into the discussion with the definition of a goal (a dream with a deadline), and why goals are so crucial in achieving dreams. The first step is defining your priorities, followed by creating value for the process: if you don't create memories along the way, what do you have to show for it? Next, we learn about Dr. Minni's SMART acronym that helps you define your goals: they need to be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Timely. We wrap up with where you can find out more and how you can find support for your SMART plan. So, do the smart thing and tune in today!
