Relationship between goals and motivation is reciprocal. They go hand in hand when pursuing goals. It is important that our motivation and mind state matches the goal. It is important for us to know how to motivate ourselves to be able to influence / guide the students to try, reflect, and how to act on it. It is also important to identify the type of goals the students have, if it is short term, long term, or end state to be able to assist and understand them.
