Goal setting can help you to keep track of where you started and how far you’ve come with your pain. Achieving your goals, no matter how small, can make a difference in what you need and want to do despite your pain.
Why it is important to set goals:Â
- Increases motivation to stay consistent in your pain management plan
- Â Increases compliance to take medication or attend treatment sessions
- Gain a sense of control to feel empowered in your own well being
- Track progress and makes it possible to adjust pain management strategies
based on results. Check out the Pain Symptom Diary for this! - Social support through sharing these goals with friends and family
