Smart Goals
S.M.A.R.T. Goals Everyone has heard of SMART goals. SMART stands for: Specific Goals must be clear and unambiguous. A goal should have a specific outcome or event. For example, I want to lose weight is not as good as I will lose five pounds by…. Measurable When goals are specific you can measure your progress - if your goals are not measurable, you never know whether you are making progress toward its completion. Achievable Can the objective be achieved with a reasonable amount of effort and application? Let me give you an example. Lets say you are playing basketball with your 6 year old brother. Not exactly a competitive game. Now, imagine playing a game with Michael Jordan. Again, not exactly a competitive game. Now imagine a game with your best friend, Bob. You are evenly matched, every time you play its a close game. Thats the way you need to set your goals. Relevant Your goal must be in harmony with your core values and your life purpose. Judith Wright talks about this in her book The One Decision. “The One Decision is a personal commitment about how you are going to live your life. It is not a small step or a good decision. It is the One Decision you can make that will completely change your life…. It is a decision so powerful that it becomes a touchstone you orient to when making every other decision.” When your are clear on your vision, on your ONE decision, and your goals are in alignment with that, they become easier to attain. Timebound Putting an end point on your goal gives you a clear target to work towards. Your goal must have deadlines and sub deadlines - for example - you have a goal to purchase a house by a certain date, but you will also have deadlines for saving a down payment, researching the market, finding an agent,etc. |
