We all have goals, but we don't always thoroughly assess whether the goals we think we want to go after are really worthy of the chase. Here are two great goal setting acronyms that will help you decide on whether your goals are truly worthwhile:
SMARTER
S pecific: Is your goal clearly defined or are you on a road that leads to nowhere?
M easurable: Can this actually be accurately measured?
A chievable: Can you really take action on this or are you trying to achieve something that is out of your control?
R ealistic: Can this really be achieved or is it an unattainable pipe dream?
T ime Sensitive: Is there a real deadline or will the goal be achieved one day, when the time is right?
E nthusiasm: Does thinking about your goal make you want to jump for joy?
R eward: Even if your goal takes a lot of work to achieve, is there a light at the end of the tunnel? Is there a treat that is so appealing that you can't help but be drawn to it?
HARD
H eartfelt: Do you have an emotional attachment to your goal?
A nimated: Is it motivated by a vision, picture or movie that plays continuously in your mind?
R equired: Does your goal feel urgent or necessary? Is it something that you can't shake?
D ifficult: Will your goal challenge you to commit to excellence? Will it drag you out of your comfort zone?
