Are you tired of setting S.M.A.R.T goals and not achieving them? Do you feel like every goal-setting video or podcast gives the same exact advice? If so, you are not alone. The truth is, S.M.A.R.T goals are not always effective because they do not consider context or situation. They rely exclusively on willpower and internal motivation to get you to take action, which is not always enough.

Luckily, there is a better way. In this video, we introduce you to the Matthews Method, a new goal-setting process that considers social pressure and individual circumstances. Dr. Gail Matthews conducted a study on goal-setting in 2015 and found that the Matthews Method resulted in a 76% increase in goal achievement likelihood. That's right, 76%!

By incorporating social pressure and individual circumstances, the Matthews Method makes it more likely that you select goals that you are capable of consistently pursuing. It also utilizes social pressure as an additional motivational tool rather than just willpower. The study conducted by Dr. Gail Matthews shows that this approach is incredibly effective.

So, if you're tired of struggling to achieve your goals and want to try a new approach, watch this video and learn how to apply the Matthews Method to your own life. Join the conversation and share your thoughts in the comments below. And for more motivational content, check out episode 879 where we discuss how to get and stay motivated.
