Using SMART goals helps you ensure that the goals you set are ones you can realistically achieve.
Introduction
Using SMART goals helps you ensure that the goals you set are ones you can realistically achieve.
Instructions
Using the SMART Goals Template [DOCX], write three SMART goals for your future: one personal goal, one professional goal, and one academic goal. When writing these goals, try to make them:
- As specific as possible.
- Measurable (How will you know they have been accomplished?)
- Achievable, realistic, and attainable.
- Relevant to what matters to you (they may align with other goals you have).
- Timely (The goals should have a target date for completion.)
Here are two examples:
- I want to increase my salary from $30,000 to $55,000 a year by December 2022.
- I want to receive a promotion to Call Center Manager by December 2021
