The Impact of Goal Setting on the Self-management Ability of College Students

Abstract

With the rapid development of higher education in China, talent cultivation in universities is facing new challenges and impacts. Self management is a fundamental quality that college students should possess. In the context of the new era, the phenomenon of insufficient self-management ability among college students still exists. Goal setting is an important driving force for improving the self-management ability of college students, which is helpful in helping them improve their self-management efficiency and enhance their behavioral motivation. However, there are still some problems with goal setting in college students' self-management, mainly manifested in the mismatch between goal setting and their own situation, insufficient execution of preset goals in self-management, and a lack of awareness and ability to adjust goals in a timely manner. To improve the self-management ability of college students based on goal setting, clear development goals should be set, feasible action plans should be formulated, and goals should be reviewed and adjusted regularly.
