Elements of effective goal-setting do not include which of the following?

  1. Discarding a goal if it is not immediately successful

  2. Setting achievable targets

  3. Measuring progress

  4. Being realistic

The correct answer is: Discarding a goal if it is not immediately successful

Effective goal-setting includes setting achievable targets, measuring progress, and being realistic. Discarding a goal if it is not immediately successful goes against the other elements and may lead to giving up on worthwhile goals too quickly. It is important to continue working towards a goal and adjusting as needed rather than abandoning it altogether.
