Short-term goals: These goals are clear and specific and are over a period of time from today to about three weeks from now. Many times this type of goal simply revolves around the goal for today’s workout. It may be about the intensity or duration of the work, and is a mental picture of exactly what one would like to do.

Short-term goals are smaller, attainable goals that you work on every day, week, and month in order to hit that end result. Consider your team's goal of winning a championship as the final destination (long-term) and the way you get there to be your processes or short-term goals.

“A successful short-term process goal, is one which breaks down the critical or match-winning actions and brings our focus back to the field of play where we have control over our own choices and behavior. It’s these choices and behavior that have a capacity to influence the end result.”
