SMART Goals

Specific

Measurable

Achievable

Realistic

Time Frame

Specific “Having a special application,

bearing, or reference; specifying, explicit, or definite”

NOT generic… the more detail, the more precise, the better!

Measurable “Capable of being measured” “Better” is NOT measurable!!! Examples: numbers, laps, goals,

grades

Achievable/Attainable “To bring to a successful end, carry

through, accomplish; gain through effort”

Is my goal legal? Is it able to be done?

Realistic “Interested in, concerned with, or

based on what is real or practical” Is my goal something that I really

want to do or something I’m capable of achieving within my given time frame?

Time Frame “Period of time during which

something has taken or will take place”

Give yourself a deadline!!!

I want to get good grades.

Bell Ringer:

Take a “Smarten Your Goals” worksheet from the front table and complete PART ONE!

SMART OR NOT?

I want to score 2 goals in soccer this season. By the end of next week, I want to improve my

mile time by 5 minutes. I want to play in the NFL as a kicker next

season. After school today, I want to rob the Wawa on

Horsham Rd. This year, I want to read one new book each

month. I want to see one new movie each month this

year with someone different.

SMART!

NOT!

SMART or NOT?

I want to eat healthier. I want to do more push-ups this spring

than I did in the fall. I want to find at least one new coping

skill to help me deal with my anger this month.

I want to meet 1 new person every day this week.

I want to skydive in Hawaii before I die. I want to laugh more. I want to make honor roll at least one

time this school year.

SMART!

NOT!

SMART or NOT? I want to be more adventurous. I want to be able to focus better. By the end of the summer, I want to

be able to swim the entire length of the pool without touching the bottom.

I want to win the KV Spelling Bee this year.

In two weeks, I want to stop biting my nails.

In my lifetime, I want to run a marathon in each of the 50 states.
