Once they understand all about setting goal and how to achieve it they start setting goals themselves.

Explain to your kids about benefits of Setting Goal

You should teach your kids about benefits of setting goals and putting efforts for achieving those goals. You should explain them how they can progress in life by setting goals and encourage them to start with setting short-term goals in the beginning and moving ahead with setting long-term goals step-by-step.

Help your child in setting a Goal

You have to take initiative for your kid to set short-term goal first. For small kid you need to insist him to complete homework or study within a given time limit. Once you find that your kid can accomplish such task within given time bound you can encourage him for setting new goal. You should know your kid’s capacity and based on that help or suggest him for setting new goal. You should first ask your child that what interests him and what he would like to do in his life. Once you know about your child’s interest, you can guide him to set his goal.
 

Some kids do not understand what they like or want to do in their life; in that case parents should guide their kids for their progressive career. If your child likes sports activity or playing musical instrument, you should encourage him in those activities and ask him to set the milestones for learning them. Teach your child that he should never set a goal beyond his capacity. It is important to understand the capacity and availability of time before setting any goal.
 

Once he achieves the desired goal ask him to set another goal, which is bigger than previous one. Setting and achieving desirable goal help your child to progress in life. Ask him to set a new goal only when your kid completes his first goal. Do not set more than one goal at a time.

Positive Efforts to Achieve Goal

You should teach your child to keep tolerance in achieving goals and to achieve any goal he should make positive and hard efforts. Tell him that he will find many constraints in his way, but he should be determined in achieving his goal. For example, if your child has to achieve top rank in his exam and due to illness or other reason, if he is unable to prepare for it then you should support your child to be strong and make efforts from the beginning so that next time he finds such problem, he can overcome that and achieve good rank. Do not let your child to get depressed for his failure in achieving goal. Use positive attitude to motivate your child and hide his disability.

When your kid achieves small goal, encourage him by giving some gift or take him to the movie or hotel for dinner. Make him feel proud for the accomplishment of task.
