Understanding Goal Fatigue

Goal fatigue arises when individuals set new goals without fully appreciating their progress, leading to feelings of burnout and discouragement. This phenomenon often occurs as people achieve milestones but then immediately push themselves to achieve even more, resulting in an unmanageable cycle of expectations. The key to overcoming this issue lies in setting realistic and achievable targets that create a sense of accomplishment rather than a never-ending pursuit. By recognizing the importance of celebrating wins and maintaining a balanced approach to goal-setting, individuals can mitigate the risks associated with moving the goalposts.
