Why is it important that goals be measurable
saveliy_v [14]
It is important for goals to be measurable because it adds to their specificity and allows you to track your progress toward your achievement. With measurable goals, you can know exactly what you are trying to accomplish and what you need to meet to improve. For example, if you set a goal saying, “I want to be doing 80 sit ups in a minute by the end of this month by increasing my total amount of sit ups by 4 a day” you are now not only able to track how much you are increasing each day, but can see your specific total you are working for and track your progress on your way to reaching that goal.

Always make sure to set realistic goals that follow the MAD guidelines:
M-Measurable
A- Attainable
D- Deadline Driven


I hope this helps! :)

Which of the following is true concerning labeling?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

D) All of the answers are correct

Explanation:

Two people can label the same situation differently which leads to different perceptions. A bad experience could be labelled as a trauma and can lead to several psychiatric disorders like PTSD or depression. Often when we label something we also generalize a situation or a person. Labeling someone in this way can lead other people to oppress that person or take their advantage. For example a label like HIV positive is generally taken in  a negative sense by people and it overshadows all other aspects of a person's life.
