Establishing clear goals in writing is the responsibility of managers and their superiors, and of managers and their staff. This should occur at least annually, and should be aligned with the company’s corporate mission and strategic plan. The way we word our goals is the biggest factor in helping us achieve them. And some smart person has come up with an acronym to help us remember these characteristics. Goals should be SMART! S=SPECIFIC When we make our goals too general we aren’t able to visualize them, and if we can’t see them, we have a hard time devoting our efforts toward reaching them. We are more apt to do a good job of redecorating the bathroom if we have a picture in our mind of how it will look when it’s done. M=MEASURABLE If we can’t measure a goal, we have no idea how close we are getting to reaching it, and that can be de-motivating. For example, you have decided you will save some money from every pay check in order to take a vacation this summer. But if you don’t set a specific amount each pay, and you don’t have an amount you want to reach, you are less apt to put the money away. A=ATTAINABLE/ACHIEVABLE We sometimes think that we should set high targets or goals for ourselves, in order to grow and stretch. Well, we do want to grow and stretch, but if we set goals that aren’t do-able, we soon get discouraged and we stop trying. The really high achievers in the world know this. They set goals that they know they can reach, and when they get there, they set another goal they know they can reach. They climb the mountain one foot at a time. R=RELEVANT Goals have to make sense, and have some importance, or they will soon be discarded. Set goals that make sense to you.
