  • One Mid Term (6 Months - November 21, 2007)
  • One Long Term (1 Year - May 21, 2007)

When you are thinking about these goals please use the think about the following guidelines.

SMART

S - Specific - The goal should have a precise result.

M - Measurable - Must have concrete criteria in attaining the goal
A - Achievable - With a reasonable amount of effort- goals can be hard and achievable

R - Relevant- Is the goal relevant to your needs?

T - Time Based - Goals should include time lines, target dates and accomplishments.

You can use the “Evidence” Test. If a goal does not have any evidence or proof after you have finished it lacks the clarity. The event or activity itself is not the goal.

Example: I will read one book non-fiction book a month.

The focus of the goals are to assisting in seeing results and give clarity of the “Big Picture.” Hopefully, this will engage you and give you a more responsibility in your life.
