The document discusses guidelines for setting SMARTER goals. SMARTER is an acronym that stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-bound, Evaluated, and Reviewed. Each letter provides examples of goals that meet that criteria, such as making a goal specific like "improve my history grade from 85% to 90%" rather than vague like "do better in history." The document emphasizes that goals should be challenging but realistic, have deadlines, and be reviewed periodically to evaluate progress and make adjustments if needed. It concludes that goal setting can help decide priorities, provide motivation, and build self-confidence.

- 1. Setting SMARTER Goals Diana Ratri, S. Psi @diana_psi
- 2. If goals aren’t reachable, they aren’t worth making. All you have to do to set realistic goals is follow the SMARTER goals guidelines @diana_psi
- 3. SPECIFIC • What details do you want to accomplish? • “I want to do better in history” • “I want to increase my history grade from an 85% to a 90%. @diana_psi
- 4. MEASURABLE • All goals should have a way to evaluate whether or not they were accomplished. • “I want to run the mile better.” • “I want to improve my mile time by 30 seconds.” @diana_psi
- 5. ATTAINABLE • Goals must be something you are capable of reaching. Which one would be a better goal for Tom Brady? “I will help my team to win the 2009 Super Bowl” “I will rehabilitate my knee so that I can play football again next season. @diana_psi
- 6. RELEVANT • Make goals that are important to you and your lifestyle. Which goal is better for a teacher? • “My goal is to discover a cure for cancer” • “My goal is to inspire at least one student to become a doctor to research a cure for cancer” @diana_psi
- 7. TIME - BOUND • Make sure that you have a time set as a “dead line” so your goal is not unending. • “My goal is to be able to run a half marathon.” • My goal is to run in a half marathon by May of 2009. @diana_psi
- 8. Execution • Execution • How your plan can be implementated in to action the ability to execute strategy was more important than the quality of the strategy itself @diana_psi
- 9. Reviewed • Look for the whole of activities • Is it alligned to your plan? • Look bcak a while for a lot of things happened and all lesson can be learned Then... Move Forward @diana_psi
- 10. Final tips to Goal Setting: • Write down your goals and look at them often! • If you achieved your goals too easily, make your next goals harder. • Failure to meet goals only matters if you don’t learn something from your mistakes. • Goal setting is an important method of: – Deciding what’s important for you to achieve. – Motivating yourself. – Building self-confidence. @diana_psi
