How to Use Motivational Cards to Inspire Goal Setting
Motivation is a combination of desire for achievement, willingness to expend energy on it and have the drive to push past setbacks. Using motivational cards to inspire goal setting offers an interactive way to explore feelings of low motivation and presents fifteen scientifically proven ways to become more motivated.
How Do Motivational Cards Work?
When discussing goal setting and action plans during training or coaching, motivational cards can guide sessions for you. You can look into a range of life topics where goal setting can be helpful, including:
- Life and career choices
- Procrastination
- Facing challenges
- Leading a team
- Self doubt
- Improving morale
- Being accepted
- Enhancing engagement
The best outcome from using Mindspring Motivation Cards is that your client will leave the session with renewed motivation. This can be from building a clear idea on what they hope to achieve, realistic steps on how to get there and confidence in the support they have around them.
How Can I Use Them to Inspire Goal Setting?
Once familiarised with our Motivation Cards, explore the differences between direction, progression and connection in motivation. This should lead into a deeper conversation about motivation and how the cards resonate with your clients life and work.
When a client or employee is inspired by goal setting and has one in mind, it is often helpful to begin the discussion on how to get started, the support required and how to maintain momentum. Use the Motivation Cards to guide through this conversation and inspire the answers they are looking for.
Why Should I Inspire Goal Setting in My Team?
