In Part 1 we discussed having a plan. 

\\n

 

\\n

In Part 2 we discussed reviewing and revising our plan on a regular basis. 

\\n

 

\\n

Today, in Part 3 we are discussing S.M.A.R.T Planning. 

\\n

 

\\n

"The SMART acronym first appeared in the November 1981 issue of Management Review. "There\'s a S.M.A.R.T. way to write management goals and objectives." was the title and it was written by George Doran, Arthur Miller, and James Cunningham." according to smart-goals-guide.com. 

\\n

 

\\n

According to the same source: "When the S.M.A.R.T goal was first introduced to the world it was an acronym which stood for: 

\\n

S. - Specific 

\\n

M. - Measurable 

\\n

A. \\u2013 Assignable 

\\n

R. - Realistic 

\\n

T. \\u2013 Time-based - In other words when you set a goal you had to ensure it was specific, measurable, assignable, realistic and time-based." 

\\n

 

\\n

Here are some other words that came be used to perhaps make it better fit your needs. 

\\n

"S - Specific, or significant, stretching, stimulating, simple, self-owned, strategic, sensible

\\n

M. - Measurable, or meaningful, motivating, manageable, maintainable 

\\n

A. \\u2013 Achievable, or attainable, action-oriented, appropriate, agreed, assignable, ambitious, accepted, audacious 

\\n

R. - Relevant, or rewarding, results-oriented, resourced, recorded, reviewable, robust

\\n

T. \\u2013 Time based or time-bound, timelined, track-able"

\\n

 

\\n

During today\'s broadcast, we created our own from the above ... listen and see what\'s up.  Tune in next week as we wrap up Q1 with 2 other planning methods.
