How To Set Goals: Using The S. M. A. R. T. E. R. Technique by nocera(m): 8:55am On Sep 14, 2024
Goals setting is one important feature of diligent people. Goal-setters are focused, time-conscious, deliberate and organized. But goals setting can be difficult for some, as when it comes to planning their life, they become confused. Below is a step-by-step and practical way to set goals, pursue them and achieve them smoothly and - smartly.

1. S - SPECIFIC = When setting goals, be precise, concise as well as articulate and distinctive. Don't be vague or indefinite.

2. M - MEASURED = Arrange your goals in sequencial order. Let them be determined in phases.

3. A - ACHIEVABLE = Be practical and realistic. Do not be idealistic or utopian, let your goals reflect current realities.

4. R - RELEVANT = Let your goals be important. Do not waste your time going about things that won't add value to your life. If you're a professional; pursue excellence. If you're artistic; set goals to standout. If you're business-oriented or inclined to industry; let your goals surround productivity, improved service delivery and good customer relations.

5. T - TIMEBOUND = Give yourself an ultimatum. Set deadlines for achieving each phase of your goals, efficiently.

6. E - ETHICAL = Set sound moral standards. Let your goals reflect your values and principles.

7. R - RESOURCED = Start with what you have. Before outsourcing for resources check yourself - there is first the resources of the human being before the resources of the earth. They are the resources of;

• The Heart - innate resources such as; integrity, excellence, dedication, etc.
• The Mind - knowledge, innovation, creativity, etc.
• The Hand - skills, strength, speed, etc.

These resources prove that you have capacity, are credible and competent.
