  6. A- Attainable • Is your goal a challenge but still possible to achieve? • Goals must be achievable. • The best goals require you to stretch a bit to achieve them. • You don’t want to set a goal that is too out of your reach.

  7. R-Realistic • Is your goal realistic and within your reach? • Are you willing to commit to your goal? • Almost certainly your goal is realistic if your truly believe you can accomplish it.

  8. R-Relevent • Is your goal relevant to your life purpose? • Is it in line with your beliefs or values? • Your goal must be consistent with other goals established and fits within your immediate and long-term plans?

  12. As you can see setting SMART goals are crucial to being successful. • Once you have a goal clearly defined you must have an action plan in order to make it happen • Goals don’t magically happen just because you write the goal down • ACTION IS THE KEY TO REACHING IT!
