Set SMART Goals



A journey to repositioning started three days ago, and can be read: #1 and #2

Once you got you cardinals, you got your road maps. The next move is setting SMART goals.
The goal setting becomes easier, because every goal now becomes a function of your cardinals. There's no more mazing and scattered goals.

Your goals should be:
Specific, not general
Measurable, not exaggerated
Achievable, not mere dreams
Realistic, not illusory as a mirage
Timed, not without a time range

If your goals are to be specific, they hit the nail on the head. You cannot set a goal to have academic success, but you can set goals to read minimum of two hours daily to bring about that academic success—being specific. You don't have to set unlimited exaggerated goals or so much goals: it leads to frustration. Make sure your goals can be achieved, and make sure your goals are realistic. For every of your goal, give it a time frame: that's what makes it a goal and not a dream.

The teen and youth ages are transitory periods. The adulthood is dependent on them and the childhood look forward to them. Major changes occur that shapes one during this period. Decisions and choices during this period are key too. The parable of the talents illustrates a scenario of three servants- their ages not told. They were given talents which can be likened to an investment. The spotlight is on the fact that they were given according to their "ability" and not "piety." A mentor once said they were given to capacity. If piety were a consideration, the servant who ended up with one talent should have had the most: he was pious; he feared his master the most  and wouldn't want to offend him in any way; but he hadn't capacity worth investing more than one talent. The above is an evidence that proves the fact that nobody is willing to invest much in anybody without capacity, enough to contain. The amount of content is dependent on the capacity of ...
