Time must be measurable, attainable and realistic.
Every goal that you create must be time-sensitive in nature. Not having a time element attached to your goal breeds procrastination. We would simply be motivated to put the goal off for a later time and never get around to it. Goals must have definite starting points and ending points and milestones along the way.
Bad example: “I am going to do my homework.”
Good example: “I am going to finish my homework by 8pm tonight and I’ll achieve this deadline by spending one hour on each subject.”
By spending some time towards making sure that your goals fit the SMART criteria, you will ensure your success.
