To Achieve your goals You need a structured plan!
Specific • Who is involved? • What do I want to accomplish? • Where? Identify a location. • When? Establish a time frame. • Which: Identify requirements and constraints. • Why? Specific reasons, purpose or benefits of accomplishing the goal.
Measurable • Establish concrete criteria for measuring progress toward the attainment of each goal that you set. • When you measure your progress, you stay on track • Reach your target dates • Experience the exhilaration of achievement that spurs you on to continued effort to reach your goal.
Attainable • Your goals must be important to you • You will develop attitudes, abilities, skills and financial capacity to reach them. • Far reaching goals become attainable, not because they shrink, but because you expand to match them. • You see your self as worthy of these goals, and develop the traits and personality that allow you to possess them.
Realistic • To be realistic, the goal must represent an objective toward which you are both willing and able to work. • A goal can be both high and realistic. • You decide how high or realistic you want it to be. • A high goal is easier to achieve than a low goal • Low goals exerts low motivational force
Timely • A goal should be grounded with a time frame. • A time frame creates a sense of urgency. • A time frame sets the unconscious mind into motion • T can also be for Tangible • A goal is tangible when you can experience it with one of the senses, that is, taste, touch, smell, sight or hearing • When your goal is tangible you have a better chance of making it specific and measureable and thus attainable.

Goals should be clear, written, specific and measurable. • They fear failure. Failure hurts. It is often necessary to experience failure in order to achieve the greatest success. • They fear rejection. People are afraid if they are unsuccessful of achieving a goal that others will be critical of them. Keep your goals to yourself at the out set and share your successes with others.
