SMART

Specific

 

I need to pick a specific goal that I want to achieve. This must concentrate on one particular area rather than a general goal. This is so that it will be easy to measure the success of whether or not I have completed my goal.

 

Measurable

 

I need to set a certain amount of time for me to complete the goal. This will give me a good representation of how much progression I have achieved. It will also encourage me to complete my goal as I will now when it is to be finished by.

 

 

Attainable

 

My goal needs to be realistic so that I will be able to actually complete it. I should also look into how I can my goal can be accomplished. If I have a attainable goal this will motivate me to complete it.

 

 

Relevant

 

I need to make sure that my goal accomplishes something that I want to achieve. I need to look into things such as if my goal is relevant to me and whether this is a skill that I will need either now or in the future.

If I choose a relevant goal and it is something that I want to achieve than I should be encouraged more to achieve it as it will benefit me in a specific way that will help me.
