push you further,gives you a sence of direction,and helps you organize and
helps you organize and reach your goals.

be very motivating!

• Read for 20 minutes.
• Complete 15 sit-ups

9. ACHIEVABLE
• The goal should not just be realistic, it must be realistic for you. Different
people have different capabilities, and just because a goal is suitable for
someone else doesn't mean it isn't too difficult or too easy for you.
• Eg:
• Run 1km at the garden.
• Join a running program

• This applies not only to the goal itself, but also to the way you measure
it. Make sure the goal you're working toward is something that is
tangible and important to you!
• "Make my bed every day" might be a good goal for many, but if you
really, truly find you feel no better coming home to a made bed, skip
that one.

11. TIMELY
• Most goals should have some kind of reasonable time limit to keep
yourself motivated and prevent stagnation.
• Eg:
• Run a 5k by the end of the year.
