CONSTRUCTING SMART GOALS

This activity gives you practice turning broad, general goals into specific, measurable, and time-limited goals. We aren’t focusing on the A (achievable) and the R (relevant to you) of the SMART acronym, because only you can determine if a goal is achievable or relevant.

First, review the Set a SMART Goal section of this chapter. Then rewrite the following goals to make them specific, measurable, and time-limited.

  1. Goal: Look for a job soon.
