Which example best illustrates an action-oriented goal?

  1. I want to run a marathon

  2. Perform 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week

  3. I will eat healthier

  4. I wish to be more active

The correct answer is: Perform 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week

An action-oriented goal focuses on specific behaviors and measurable actions that can be directly tracked and accomplished. The selected example, which is to perform 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week, illustrates this concept clearly. It specifies a quantifiable amount of exercise and a set frequency, making it straightforward to monitor progress and adjust as necessary. In contrast, other options are more vague and do not provide actionable steps. For instance, wanting to run a marathon indicates a desire without outlining how to get there or the steps needed to achieve that goal. Similarly, the statement about eating healthier lacks specific actions or guidelines to follow, making it difficult to measure success. Lastly, wishing to be more active does not specify any behaviors or measurable units, making it an ambiguous goal rather than an actionable one.
