A technique that is commonly used to set goals is using a framework called SMART. Coined by Dorian in 1981, the SMART acronym is defined as follows: Specific Goal: Clearly define what needs to be accomplished. Measurable Outcome: Quantify milestones to evaluate progress. Achievability: The goal is to be realistic within your own capability or your teams ability. Relevance: The goals are to align goals with the broader objectives and be relevant to what you are trying to achieve. Time-Bound Targets: Establish deadlines to maintain focus on the desired outcome. Following this framework can help you to achieve your goals.
