Goal setting, blood pressure, and resistance bands

Let’s start here: we are all different. Our minds and bodies work differently, and we have different strengths and weaknesses. For example, you probably find some of my videos, podcast episodes and articles more useful than others, right? This is likely because of your goal-setting personality. We all have one, and they are all unique.

Knowing what style of goal-setting works best for you can help you leverage your strengths and minimize your weaknesses. Sounds pretty great, right? Well, that is why Monica Reinagel and I (mostly Monica) came up with a free, new and improved, quiz to help you identify your goal-setting personality.

This updated version of the quiz includes a new goal-setting personality type AND a playlist of podcast episodes specifically selected for each goal-setting type.  So, even if you took the quiz in the past, you might want to take it again – or tell a friend to go to changeacademypodcast.com/personality
