TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS - ABCS

USE THE SMART SYSTEM

When it comes to goal setting, the SMART system is simple, down-to-earth and gets the job done. Each goal must be defined so that it meets the following criteria:

S – SpecificM – MeasurableA – AchievableR – RealisticT – Timely

• SPECIFIC, ACHIEVABLE AND REALISTIC--Make sure your goals are concrete, concise and attainable. Instead of, "I want to make a lot more money this year," specify "I want to increase my revenues by X percent (a realistic amount) by the end of the year."

• MEASURABLE--Frame your goals in such a way so you can measure your progress. For example, plan on measuring monthly or quarterly revenues against last year's figures--something you should be doing anyway.

USE THE SMART SYSTEM

• TIMELY--Give yourself a reasonable time frame for achieving your goal. Then break it down into smaller, short-term increments. Realistically, you may not achieve that X percent increase early in the year, but you can work toward it. Divide your goal percent increase into monthly or quarterly increments that allows you to build on your momentum. This produces measurable, attainable and short-term goals to pursue.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

• Emerson said “Concentration is the secret of success in politics, in war in all management of human affairs. “
