Pick any movie or TV character of your choice that pursued a goal. After choosing your character, answer the following questions:
- Identify what type of goal your character adopted. Do you think this was the best way for your character to frame their goal? (Example: Ross adopted an avoidance goal when he tried to hide from Rachel that they were still married, in order to avoid getting a third divorce.)
- Identify any strategies used by the character. (Example: Ross used the strategy of telling a friend when he confided in Phoebe that he was still married to Rachel).
- Was your character successful in achieving his or her overall goal? Why or why not? (Example: Ross was not successful in his goal pursuit, likely because the goal he chose was unattainable and unrealistic. He could have chosen a goal that was more moderate, such as getting an annulment.)
