S.M.A.R.T Goals

S.M.A.R.T. Goals are a method for setting clear and effective objectives. They stand for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. This means your goal should be clearly defined, with criteria to track progress, realistic to accomplish, aligned with your broader aims, and have a deadline. Using S.M.A.R.T. criteria helps increase the likelihood of success by providing structure and focus, ensuring your efforts are well-directed and progress can be easily monitored. It’s a practical approach to turning intentions into actionable, achievable steps.
