Be SMART!


In order to reach a goal you must first create a goal. So your first challenge is to set your goals for the fast. Here are the rules........ Be SMART!!


S=Be specific! Your goals should be detailed rather than vaguely stated or half thought out. They should be complete as well as not bundled with other goals. Make each goal a single, clearly outlined step.


M=Measurable! Your goal should include clear metrics that let you know when you have completed them


A=Attainable/Actionable/Appropriate! Your goal should be something that you can actually achieve and not something that depends on luck or someone else's actions. They also need to be a good fit for your passions, values and strengths.


R=Realistic! Your goals should be in the realm of possible. It should also be goals that can be achieved in a healthy and sane manner.


T=Timely! Your goals needs to be something that you can do NOW. And they need to have a definite start and completion dates(unless the end result is an ongoing habit).


Okay find a piece of paper and write down at least 3 SMART goals. Then post your goals in a place where you can visualize your goal everyday.


If you feel comfortable, please share one of your SMART goals.


You are on your way to being financially free.
