Always set goals that are challenging. Goals can be so vague that they are useless. It is difficult to know whether vague goals have been achieved. If achievement cannot be measured, then your self-confidence will not benefit from goal setting, nor can you observe progress towards a greater goal. Set precise, quantitative goals.
Goal setting can be unsystematic, sporadic and disorganized.
Here goals will be forgotten, achievement of goals will not be measured and feedback will not occur in new goals. If this happens then the major benefits of goal setting are lost. Be organized and regular in the way that you use goal setting. When too many unprioritized goals are set, you can feel overwhelmed. Remember that you deserve time to relax and enjoy being human.
