The Sydney Sun Herald (17 Jan 2010, page 39) asked us how people could improve their chances of achieving their goals. We advised that goals should follow the SMARTER principle:
S=specific
M=measurable
A=accountable
R=realistic
T=timed
E=exciting
R=rewarding
As an example, you can see how “I want to be out of debt” differs from “I have paid $3000 off my credit card balance and have $1000 in savings by the 1st July 2010.” The second is a SMARTER goal. What’s yours?
