Question

You are trying to save up for a spa package that costs $300. After looking at your paycheck, you decide that you will be able to set aside $50 a week for the next 6 weeks. Knowing this information, you call the spa to make a reservation for this package for 2 months from now. Which type of goal does this situation best describe?

Answer 1

The type of goal this situation best describe is a short term goal, this is because the deadline of the goal is two months. A short term goal is a goal which one sets for himself, which can be accomplished within a year or two. A medium term goal can last up to five years while a long term goal can last up to ten years or more.
