If a student writes a goal but does not connect it with a core interest, what is the risk?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Long-term motivation may weaken
A goal connected with personal interest or purpose usually feels more meaningful and is easier to pursue consistently. If the goal has no personal relevance, effort may decline when the work becomes difficult or rewards are delayed. It will not automatically increase time, guarantee fast progress, or remove obstacles.
