Now, imagine being tasked with unraveling the mysteries of goal achievement in a corporate landscape.
discrepancy (n.)
"variance or contrariety, especially of facts or sentiments," mid-15c. (discrepauns, discrepance), from Latin discrepantia "discordance, discrepancy," from discrepantem (nominative discrepans), present participle of discrepare "sound differently, differ," from
dis- "apart, off" (see dis-) + crepare "to rattle, crack" (see raven). Modern form is from early 17c. Related: Discrepancies.
also from mid-15c.
Entries linking to discrepancy
dis-
word-forming element of Latin origin meaning 1. "lack of, not" (as in dishonest); 2. "opposite of, do the opposite of" (as in disallow); 3. "apart, away" (as in discard), from Old French des- or directly from Latin dis- "apart, asunder, in a different direction, between," figuratively "not, un-," also "exceedingly, utterly." Assimilated as dif- before -f- and to di- before most voiced consonants.
The Latin prefix is from PIE *dis- "apart, asunder" (source also of Old English te-, Old Saxon ti-, Old High German ze-, German zer-). The PIE root is a secondary form of *dwis- and thus is related to Latin bis "twice" (originally *dvis) and to duo, on notion of "two ways, in twain" (hence "apart, asunder").
In classical Latin, dis- paralleled de- and had much the same meaning, but in Late Latin dis- came to be the favored form and this passed into Old French as des-, the form used for compound words formed in Old French, where it increasingly had a privative sense ("not"). In English, many of these words eventually were altered back to dis-, while in French many have been altered back to de-. The usual confusion prevails.
As a living prefix in English, it reverses or negatives what it is affixed to. Sometimes, as in Italian, it is reduced to s- (as in spend, splay, sport, sdain for disdain, and the surnames Spencer and Spence).
raven (n.)
Late Old English ræfen, refen, earlier hræfn (Mercian), hrefn, hræfn (Northumbrian, West Saxon), from Proto-Germanic *khrabanaz (source also of Old Norse hrafn, Danish ravn, Dutch raaf, Old High German hraban, German Rabe "raven," Old English hroc "rook"), from a PIE root imitative of harsh sounds (compare Latin crepare "to creak, clatter," cornix "crow," corvus "raven;" Greek korax "raven," korōnē "crow;" Old Church Slavonic kruku "raven;" Lithuanian krauklys "crow"). Old English, by a normal alteration of -fn, also used hræmn, hremm.
A larger species of crow common in Europe and Asia, noted for its lustrous black plumage and raucous voice; the raven is "popularly regarded as a bird of evil omen and mysterious character" [OED].
Raven mythology shows considerable homogeneity throughout the whole area [northern regions of the northern hemisphere] in spite of differences in detail. The Raven peeps forth from the mists of time and the thickets of mythology, as a bird of slaughter, a storm bird, a sun and fire bird, a messenger, an oracular figure and a craftsman or culture hero. [Edward A. Armstrong, "The Folklore of Birds," 1958]
The Quran connects the raven with Cain's murder of Abel, but in Christianity the bird plays a positive role in the stories of St. Benedict, St. Paul the Hermit, St. Vincent, etc. Poe's poem was published in 1845. It was anciently believed to live to a great age but also to be wanting in parental care. The raven standard was the flag of the Danish vikings. The vikings, like Noah, were said to have used the raven to find land when at sea. "When uncertain of their course they let one loose, and steered the vessel in his track, deeming that the land lay in the direction of his flight; if he returned to the ship, it was supposed to be at a distance" [Charles Swainson, "The Folk Lore and Provincial Names of British Birds," London, 1886]. As an English name for the constellation Corvus by late 14c.
It's a journey I embarked on, conducting a comprehensive study that involved 600 high-tech employees across various companies in the United States.
The research was commissioned by a forward-thinking organization that aimed to provide application services tailored to assist employees in reaching their personal goals.
These objectives spanned diverse areas, including nutrition, fitness, hydration, and much more.
The overarching idea was to match each employee with a personalized path to success, considering their unique characteristics and the most effective forms of reinforcement.
Setting the Stage:
The Initial Goals
The study commenced by asking employees a fundamental question:
"Do you have any goals you'd like to achieve in the upcoming year, and if so, what are they?"
Surprisingly, 80 percent of the participants expressed at least two distinct goals they aspired to achieve within the year.
The Puzzle: Tracking Goal Success
However, the journey was far from over. A follow-up assessment conducted two months later uncovered a perplexing discrepancy. While, initially, 80 percent of the employees had set goals, only 35 percent of them testified to successfully adhering to their goals after two months.

Cracking the Code: Understanding Goal Achievement
A deeper dive into the analysis revealed three key distinctions between those who triumphed in achieving their goals and those who did not.
Clarity of Goal Definition: Successful individuals defined their goals with precision, outlining actionable steps such as "drinking six glasses of water a day," "running for 20 minutes daily," "ceasing to eat after 7 p.m.," or "counting to 30 before reacting." These well-defined objectives provided a clear roadmap for action, simplifying the process of planning and execution. In contrast, those who couldn't meet their goals often presented vague, nebulous aspirations like "maintaining a healthy diet," "reducing laziness," "avoiding unnecessary arguments with their spouse," or "commencing regular exercise." The critical lesson here is that distinctly defined goals significantly boost the probability of success.
Time-Bound Commitment: Another significant divergence lay in the presence of time-bound commitments. The participants who succeeded in their goals adhered to specified timeframes. For instance, they committed to running before 8 a.m. or having a healthy dinner by 7 p.m. This temporal clarity improved their accountability and planning. It's not about exact timings, but the commitment to a defined timeframe that matters.
Approach vs. Avoidance Framing: The framing of goals emerged as a crucial factor. Successful individuals framed their goals in a positive, approach-oriented manner. They focused on what they wanted to achieve or embrace. For instance, "eat a salad" reflects a positive approach, allowing for self-reward and positive reinforcement upon goal achievement. In contrast, those who framed their goals in terms of avoidance, like "avoiding junk food," lacked the same positive reinforcement, as there's no tangible achievement to acknowledge in avoidance-oriented goals.
Business Implications
These insights offer valuable lessons for businesses seeking to support their employees in reaching personal goals:
Promote clear and specific goal-setting. Encourage employees to articulate clear, specific, and actionable goals. Provide guidance on breaking down larger objectives into manageable steps.
Highlight the significance of time commitments. Encourage employees to set time-based commitments for goal execution. This enhances accountability and facilitates effective planning.
Emphasize approach-oriented framing. Encourage employees to frame goals in a positive, approach-oriented manner. Focus on what they aim to achieve, enabling self-reward and motivation.
Acknowledge the importance of autonomy. Recognize that employees should autonomously define their goals. External pressure or influence may have an adverse impact on goal attainment.
