The SMART Goal Framework To maximize success, goals should follow the SMART criteria: S – Specific: Clearly define what you want to achieve. M – Measurable: Track progress with quantifiable results. A – Achievable: Set realistic and attainable goals. R – Relevant: Ensure the goal aligns with your values and priorities. T – Time-Bound: Set a deadline to stay accountable. Example of a SMART Goal: "I will read one self-improvement book per month for the next six months to enhance my personal growth."
