Episode 67 Podmas day 8 How to set S.M.A.R.T goals

It's that time of year when everyone is planning all their goals. Over the years, I've realized that while these set goals are important, it's even more critical to create a life that allows for goals to be completed. You have things you want to accomplish, that trip to your favorite city. The degree you want to finish, the book you want to write, the course you want to create, but you don't know where to start. That's where S.M.A.R.T. goals give you a defined method to plan so that you set a realistic goal and maximize a successful completion. Smart goals meaning: Specific (simple, sensible, significant). Goals, like I want to make more money, won't work, if you make a specific goal to make $10,000 there is a better chance of doing Measurable (meaningful, motivating). Ask yourself, what do I have to do to get the extra 10,000? do I need to sell more inventory?, work more hours, should I get an additional job Achievable (agreed, attainable). You have to be willing or capable of achieving this goal if you don't have a way to or the capacity to do it, you won't get it done Relevant (reasonable, realistic, and resourced, results-based). Decide if this is a goal that will have an impact on your life, and a benefit attached to it. i.e., if I have an extra 10,000, I can go to hajj, or pay off credit card debt. The advantage is that you complete an act of ibadah, or your free debt. Time-bound (time-based, time-limited, time/cost limited, timely, time-sensitive). When you set a deadline, you have a better chance of achieving the goal instead of just hoping and dreaming about it. With the new year around the corner, set goals you can achieve using the SMART system. Thanks for tuning in today's episode.
