S – Specific

They need be specific – Saying things like “I want a bit more money” or “I want to lose a bit of weight”  how much money? How much weight?

M – Measurable

Something like “ I will spend and extra 20 minutes per day practicing my sale presentation”

A – Achievable

OK let’s not get silly here…Aiming to run a marathon in 2 weeks without prior training will probably not be a good Idea, however to start a training programme will be better.

R – Realistic

Don’t try to become an overnight Rock-star but do focus smaller steps that will lead you in the right direction.
