SMART Goal Planner Tool (one-page SMART goal plan)
Why do SMART Goals always sound so easy until it’s time to write them?
You know what I’m talking about, right?
Everyone is familiar with the five components of a SMART goal (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timely), but nobody really talks about how to apply them so you end up with a step-by-step formula that helps you define a goal, challenge your why, and identify everything you need to do to achieve it.
My simple one-page goal planner does all that and more.
The Goal Planner will walk you through the steps for creating SMART goals by addressing five basic questions:
- What do you want to do?
- How are you going to do it?
- What resources will you need?
- Is it relevant to your overarching plan?
- What are the timeline & benchmarks?
Each section breaks down these questions to help you:
- Create detailed steps to reach your goal
- Identify which metrics you will use to define success
- Identify the people, skills, time, and cost you need to reach your goal
- Make goals that support your overarching mission!
It also helps you identify potential stumbling blocks so you can build better timelines.
- Access to critical skills
- People (Employees, Contractors, Suppliers, Clients)
- External factors like weather & technology
- Essential resources & funding
This information is important because the road to success almost always has at least one detour. And it’s much easier to prepare for delays (or alternate routes!) when you’re aware of which things are most likely to set you back.
Like my other planning tools, all it takes is 30-minutes and a few bullet points to craft goals that support your mission and lead to success.
