 The survey was conducted by Associate Professor Yuka Ozaki of the Faculty of Sociology, Toyo University, and was conducted from August to October 2016, targeting 8 employees of Intelligence Business Solutions.We have developed a support tool "WOOP (* 10)" that routinely sets goals using the self-control support method and monitors the results by sending emails to smartphones. We sent questions such as "Did you set a goal" and "Did you achieve your goal?" And collected answers.

 According to it, there were an average of 14 responses to each of the 11.2 response opportunities of the subjects.Of the plans made in the morning, 73% were implemented. 1% of the respondents felt that they were close to their wishes within a day.
If you try to be 100% strict with yourself, you may lose motivation and fail, but in the case where you responded with a flexible idea of ​​going 3 steps forward and 2 steps down, you can execute the plan and make a wish. It is said that they got closer.

 Intelligence Business Solutions intends to incorporate this method into new employee education and utilize its effects in the business scene.In the future, we will proceed with larger-scale experiments, improve verification and analysis procedures, and develop self-control support tools as a measure to improve employee motivation.
