Thanks!

i sooo relate to this!! my second time watching it today and its because i need to write about ONE of the goals lol

I've seen this a few times and what works for me is simplifying it

who ever liked THANK YOU!!!!

I learned this 2 times, but still more helpful than orther last time

Thank you.

what is impact bias? can you give concrete examples on how people can go wrong using SMART goals for life purpose?

@@varsha4469 no he can’t it’s been a year

Excellent to the point Video with simple explanations and graphics, perfect - Going to share this with my www.vivamk.team ;-) Thank You !

same , very informative

I have seen versions that add an additional -ER, for SMARTER goals. This allows for both realistic and relevant. The E is executable and the A is 'assignable' to suggest that goals can be delegated. Personally, I find SMART cleaner.

Thanks!

Glad it was helpful!

deep bro

+Reanna Bennett You're welcome.

In 1981 the “a” was for assignable. George Doran offered assignable for managers in the original SMART model. Achievable is a common version, but there is no standard. Use what works for you. Some versions also add -er for SMARTER. Actionable helps to focus on practical steps to move towards the goal. Whether or not a goal is achievable is often unknown, especially if we are setting challenging goals.

That would make them wishes.

Dream big. But back it up with an action plan. SMART goals lead you to chart out that do-able Action Plan, which in turn can help you achieve all your big dreams.

There are a few variants of the model I've encountered. S is always Specific M is always Measurable T is always Time-Bound But A is sometimes Attainable, sometimes Achievable, sometimes Actionable. And R is sometimes Relevant, sometimes Realistic. It depends who you ask!

i thought A stood for Apple

@@janelizgabino3982 I didn't even pay attention enough to remember what A meant.. I've watched this 4 times alr

I would consider which of those things are most meaningful to you or that might have the most impact for your community. A second consideration is if any of those activities support each other. A good tool to use to figure out which direction to go is called SWOT. It can be used to consider multiple goals and the path you wish to take. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-goxMsPCs_z0.html

@HSP0PD thanks.

Winner of a video, I have been researching "family life goals" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Farnicaas Switcher Capitalisation - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my partner got amazing results with it.

Hi Zackary, it sounds like you are asking about time management. Try the Eisenhower Matrix ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-suGXZ1869qc.html. It will help better organize your tasks, determining which are priority and which need to either be scheduled or even deleted. If you use the matrix, over time some of those backdated items either become priority and are accomplished or they are discarded or archived.

There is technically no limit to the number of goals. A good rule is to use past performance. If in the past you have successfully managed five goals then maybe add another goal or two. But if you are failing to manage five goals, consider reducing it to four or three. Using past performance you can learn to adjust, adding or subtracting goals as appropriate. A specific goal to concentrate would be related to time. People that practice meditation, mindfulness, or maintaining focus will work on extending the amount of time, e.g. 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 2 hours, etc. The goal to improve concentration is neither long or short term. It is just a goal. Any goal is only long or short in relation to other goals you might have.

An interesting fact you can share with others in your class is that in one of the earliest SMART models the ‘a’ stood for assignable. It was to help managers ensure that goals could be delegated. There are many different versions of the SMART model. As models, they do not all need to be exactly the same. Choose a version that works best for you. There are also models that use the acronym SMARTER. I prefer not to use “achievable” as there are so many goals that we can strive towards without knowing whether or not success is possible. In my experience, using achievable limits exploration, innovation, and creativity. Beliefs are powerful, and if you believe before you even try that a goal might not be achievable then chances are you will never find out. Consider how many goals were once considered unachievable? People thought it impossible for anyone to run under a 4-minute mile, for example. People thought landing on the moon was impossible. Currently we don’t know about the goal to colonize Mars. It is unknown if it is achievable, but it is actionable. We can take steps towards discovery, solving the issues and making progress towards the goal. This provides feedback and allows us to adjust the goal as we move forward. In this sense I think that actionable is more helpful than achievable.

Thank you.

+Delores Fair Glad you enjoyed it.

This was great, thanks, I been tryin to find out about "why set goals" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Farnicaas Switcher Capitalisation - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my buddy got excellent results with it.

This is just superb, I've been looking for "how to set goals" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Farnicaas Switcher Capitalisation - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my work buddy got excellent success with it.

@@martinrego3048 when you copy your friends homework and he says "just change it up a bit"

I would approach an open ended goal by creating time bound subgoals. For instance, I will always want to improve my Spanish. It’s a goal without a definite end. But, I still use time bound when setting goals that target Spanish, e.g. setting a deadline to read a book or translate an article.

Thankyou sir

Ideally you are measuring the direct (proximal) results of the actions as well as the indirect (distal) results. Weight loss is a common example. When you step on the scale it is a measure tied to a combination of actions over time. Was it the action of diet or exercise resulting in the loss of weight? If you don’t track results of your actions it is difficult to tell. In fact, it is not uncommon for a person to exercise but lose no weight as they fail to track the results of their diet. You could say that you “track actions” diet/exercise and measure results (step on the scale) but using SMART it is really a matter of having a distal outcome goal (weight loss) and proximal performance subgoals (diet/exercise) that combine to influence weight. Apologies if it isn’t entirely clear. It’s a fun challenge to squeeze everything into a 5 minute quick overview video.

@@DecisionSkills Thank you, I'm grateful for the explanation

You're welcome!

Kudos for the Video clip! Forgive me for butting in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you considered - Peytonivon Abs Takeover (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a smashing exclusive product for mastering life with this simple goal setting technique without the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my buddy at last got amazing success with it.

@@yvanmontes9222 What are you talking about

@@DecisionSkills Thanks a lot. Looks really powerful

Hi Gameboob. Thanks for the comment. Measurement is one of my favorite aspects of goal setting. I agree that body fat percentage is more specific than a scale alone. Picking the right measurement(s) for a goal is important, as dependent on what you are trying to accomplish it can help or hinder. Measurement takes time and resources.

10 pounds could be muscle, water, or fat. It could even be organs, bone, but lets not go that far.

Appreciate Video clip! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you considered - Peytonivon Abs Takeover (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a great one off product for mastering life with this simple goal setting technique minus the hard work. Ive heard some great things about it and my work buddy at last got cool results with it.

They are not different versions of the same thing. There are many ways a person might pursue the abstract concept “being healthy”. A very common way, is to maintain a healthy weight. What this means will vary for the individual. Obesity is a medical condition, i.e. a health condition. For an obese person, losing a specific amount of weight reduces certain health risks. The example, is only addressing how an individual might take the abstract and make it more specific. I agree, that losing a specific amount of weight doesn’t always mean the same thing as being healthier, but for many people it does translate. It is up to each individual to make that decision.

@@DecisionSkills if you make it more specific, it will be harder to achieve

@@jeffjests2764 A good read…”Goal-setting theory (Locke & Latham, 1990, 2002) was developed…over a 25-year period, based on some 400 laboratory and field studies. These studies showed that specific, high (hard) goals lead to a higher level of task performance than do easy goals or vague, abstract goals such as the exhortation to ‘‘do one’s best.’’ citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.553.1396&rep=rep1&type=pdf

@@DecisionSkills "So long as a person is committed to the goal, has the requisite ability to attain it, and does not have conflicting goals, there is a positive, linear relationship between goal difficulty and task performance." You can't just assume that everyone is 100% committed to their goal. Most people aren't unless they really have to. People procrastinate and give up. Is the paper factoring in that? Not to mention conflicting goals with pleasure and unwillingness to do hard work. Yes, you can revise your goal, but that only happens when you are very committed. We don't know if specific goals actually cause people to put in less committment or if they lose interest with specific goals. Like the paper states, much more research will have to be put in this.

@@jeffjests2764 there is no assumption of 100% commitment. Research shows that specific, rather than vague or abstract goals leads to higher levels of commitment. There are multiple factors that help moderate goals. Much of this is discussed in the 2013 edition, “New Develops in Goal Setting and Task Development.”

M deals with how you intend to measure your progress towards the goal as well as how you plan to ultimately measure success.

Thank you

Kurt Howard then you did not achieve your goal. The outcome was independent of your action. Instead of the flu, use getting struck by a car and losing a leg. In seconds you lost more than 10 lbs. Did you achieve your weight loss goal? No. A car was the active agent.
