Set SMART Goals For Next Year

Why is it important to plan your year ahead?


Planning ahead for the next year has some highly important benefits: it contributes to your personal and business growth; it helps you set priorities and focus on them; you get to prevent all sorts of risks and get accustomed with change.

What is a goal?

A goal refers to an expected outcome that has one or several specific objectives which have to be achieved within a designated time frame. Regarding the time frame, goals can either be long-term goals, or short-term goals. These two basic categories can be further sub-divided:

• lifetime goals: part of long-term goals, these are major goals that have accomplishment dates of ten or more years in the future;

solving, innovation, or some type of improvement;

• capstone goals: key goals that need to be accomplished first before your lifetime goals. Their time frame is between one to ten years.
• foundational goals: short-term goals that can be achieved in less than a year;
• provisional goals: also known as stepping-stone goals, these goals can be accomplished in less than a month.

Remember that goals should relate to accomplishments (therefore the result), not activities.

What is S.M.A.R.T principle

S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym and it stands for:

• S - specific: Who? What? When? Where? Why?
• M - measurable: defining quantity,

quality, cost, etc.

• A - achievable: a feasible goal
• R - relevant: important
• T - time-bound: intermediate and final deadlines.

Make a plan to achieve your goals

An accurate planning process will ensure you always know what your next move will be. This way, you will be prepared to handle change more easily: knowing all the next steps will help anticipating the risks. Also, it’s a great way to monitor your progress.
