Read the text and write if the following statements are "true" or "false".

At the start of every new year, many people set new goals, but only a few actually go on to achieve these. According to Philip Clarke, psychology lecturer at the University of Derby Online Learning, the biggest mistake is that many people identify what they want to achieve, but do not think about how to do it. Here are the some tips to help you create an effective New Year's resolution plan: 1. We work better when we have a clear goal in mind. The 'want to do my best' goal can be great for motivation, but being specific can help give you a clear focus on what needs to be done. 2. Create goals that you can measure. This helps to keep you motivated as you can see progression as time passes. 3. Making sure the goal you are setting is achievable is important. You want a challenge to keep you motivated, but it shouldn't be too hard as you might lose focus and experience feelings of anxiety and stress. 4. Setting a timeline for when you want to achieve your goal is important. Work towards realistic goals that can be achieved in the time frame you are working with. 5. Your goal needs to be exciting. If planned correctly, this can help you stay motivated when you are experiencing a tough decision that could take you away from your goal.

According 

to 

Mr. 

Clarke, 

many 

people 

fail 

to 

reach 

their 

goals 

because 

they 

don't 

really 

know 

what 

they 

want 

 

Setting 

goals 

that 

are 

difficult 

to 

achieve 

is 

considered 

challenging 

and 

motivates 

people 

to 

go 

on. 

 

Coming 

up 

with 

interesting 

ways 

of 

making 

your 

goals 

exciting 

might 

cause 

you 

to 

lose 

focus. 

 

Setting 

realistic 

and 

detailed 

goals 

is 

the 

key 

to 

helping 

people 

stick 

to 

their 

plans.
