pecific/Strategic - A specific/strategic goal has a much greater chance of being accomplished than a general goal. To set a specific/strategic goal you must answer the 3 "W" questions:
*Who: Who is involved? *What: What do I want to accomplish? *Where: Identify a location.

Measurable
- Establish concrete criteria for measuring progress toward the attainment of each goal you set. When you measure your progress, you stay on track, reach your target dates, and experience the exhilaration of achievement that spurs you on to continued effort required to reach your goal.Ask questions such as......How much?
How
will I know when it is accomplished
? What is the baseline?

Action Oriented, Attainable -
Construct a goal that is action oriented and attainable. Don’t set it so high that in the back of your mind you know failure will eventually happen. Example: An unreasonable goal is, “Use technology with every lesson I teach”, but an attainable goal would be, “Integrate technology into one lesson plan each week.”

Rigorous, Realistic, Results Focused
- To be realistic, a goal must represent an objective toward which you are both willing and able to work. But be sure that every goal represents substantial progress. Some of the hardest jobs you ever accomplished actually seem easy simply because they were a labor of love. Your goal is probably realistic if you truly believe that it can be accomplished.

Timed, Tracked
- A goal should be grounded within a time frame. With no time frame tied to it there's no sense of urgency. If you want to lose 10 lbs, when do you want to lose it by? "Someday" won't work. But if you anchor it within a timeframe, "by May 1st", then you've set your unconscious mind into motion to begin working on the goal. It must be tracked – progress monitoring.SMART Goals

Examples
: Bad example: “I want to learn to speak Spanish.” Good example: “I want to learn to speak Spanish phrases that will help me to “survive” on my trip to Spain on December 23rd. I’ll commit myself to learning at least 5 phrases every week until I leave on my trip.”
